That sounds AWESOME. I'll just wait for a couple of years till they work out the kinks. Sides, I doubt there's a company around here that will do the canvas surgery.

Just the words "Sub-dermal Implants" makes me think of Deus Ex... and that is a good thing.

I wonder if you can hack someone's tattoos...

I suppose you could if you had the wand thing.... Just load a black and white of a penis and run around changing peoples tattoos... That would be a dick move. No pun intended.

I hate April Fool's day. I am a bit gullible. That article is a joke, but animated tattoos are not. They operate with LCD screens.

I'm what's staring back from the abyss.
How come you guys never wave?

Please send me a PM if you give me kudos. I'm interested in what I'm doing right.

How can they resist pushing the button?

That was AWESOME!

Did they actually do that shit EVERY SINGLE TIME someone pushed the button?!

I think they actually did it only one time... There would be more of a crowd if it wasn't the first time, and more to the point, drama isn't really drama if you repeat it over & over...

If you'll look closely, there are three separate people standing next to the button at different points in the video.  It looks like that happened at least three times.

Or it was staged.  Poorly.  There were cameras in positions that didn't have cameras in other angles (off the ground, near the button, but no object to hide a camera on at that point, and most likely not a "zoom and enhance" deal).  However probably fake it was, it was still a pretty good commercial.

Oh, and they could have done it a few times and taken the best takes from it.  So a half-fake thing.  Definitely not a hidden camera deal though.

Meanwhile, I'm fucked, because I'm smack in the middle of one big danger zone called Europe.

Also, I doubt the passersby who pushed the button would've just stood around staring had it been a hidden camera deal, though their surprise looks genuine. It's possible it was a half-staged deal, with the stage prepared but the "victims" not necessarily told what exactly would happen.

I'm already pretty close to a non-danger zone; within a mile.

Though it concerns me that this map wants to track my location...
