It’s not a motorized hand or an electrical wire. It’s a mechanical cable running from the hook to a shoulder strap on the harness. The hook is held closed by an elastic band, and is opened by the wearer pulling their shoulder back, which pulls on the cable.

Prosthetic arm, period-accurate, of a style originally invented by a Civil War veteran.

Regular army, probably not. No reason she couldn’t be a mercenary or resistance fighter, though.

Don’t forget the ableist bullshit I’ve already seen in other forums because the woman in the video has a prosthetic arm.

“Only quitters remap the key command to something else.”

That Torbjörn skin does nothing for me, and the Soldier:76 Viper skin is so meh, everybody’s already forgotten about it.

45% Cylon, 45% Decepticon, 10% geth.

Vishkar’s hardlight technology is the most Clarke’s 3rd Law thing in Overwatch, so think of it as an in-lore ad campaign.

“It’s only $5000 more to get 6 fewer highway miles per gallon than a Fiesta. A bargain at twice the price!”

Apple first introduced its new butterfly-switch keyboards in 2015 with the 12-inch MacBook (the one without any regular USB ports).
