That's very cool!
We're living the sci-fi
On a side note, one sentence stood out for me "And he can control each of the arms, manoeuvring them in three-dimensional space"
In what other dimension would he move his arm?
Unless the exoskeleton crushed his arm and it's now 2D
Or they've added a fourth and the arms (and only the arms) can now time travel

not knocking it as a good thing,
not saying it's easy
the signal reading equipment is way more sensitive and complicated but at the end of the day the concept is the same as training alexa to replace your remote controls, or teach a dog to sit on command.
so yeah, it reads your mind but not in a way that it understands, more it knows a certain set of signals means up, another set down.
And btw, alexa can still be a bit flaky,
OTOH some dogs are pretty good - can put up with the master having a sore throat or giving commands in different moods.
so yes they can develop this stuff to help people - some really benefit from it in very good ways,
but apart from not having to clean up poo they still havn't come close to the capabilities of a domesticated pet. still looking in the wrong place.

Reading into it too much, don't our user cause enough problems with just a keyboard and mouse (touchscreen)? Just a byproduct of the tech to worry about.

Any computer that tried to understand what my brain was thinking would probably melt or actively self-destruct. It wouldn't be pretty.

Nobuo Uematsu - Clash On The Big Bridge[^]
Last week I ordered all Final Fantasy Distant Worlds CDs (which have orchestrated versions of Final Fantasy music).
I knew I, II and III, but I hadn't heard IV and V yet.
They have some of my favorite FF tracks of all time like Searching For Friends (FFVI), The Dalmasca Estersand (FFXII) and Clash On The Big Bridge (FFV & FFXII, but apparently it's featured in 16(!) FF games and spin-offs).
I've been playing FF music almost the entire week (that and Studio Ghibli music), but Clash On the Big Bridge is this week's favorite!
For those feeling nostalgic, this is how it all began: Final Fantasy V - Gilgamesh - YouTube[^]
There are so many amazing soundtracks and it's not always easy to get a hold of them, which is why I downloaded most FF music some 10-15 years ago and why I now have mostly bootleg versions of the CDs (incl. Distant Worlds I).
It's getting easier though and now I have all these original music releases!
Spread some soundtrack love so more studio's will release original music from their games worldwide!

Well, really speaking, it'll be Monday's solver who picks the theme from Monday's clue or answer so Griff can only present them with a choice of devils and deep-blue seas.

If they understood the intent, then the joke would still work. What are you trying to say about their ability to understand the inference?

Probably the same bloke that nicked all the toilets in the police station and disappeared.
The police have nothing to go on.

then his friend nicked all the lights,
they're left completely in the dark where to look.

That pun seems rather Park for the Force. Anyway, wheel see if it will drive them to drink.

I heard a sink-hole appeared in the middle of the highway. The police are looking into it.

That might lead to a sudden drop in police availability!

Nice joke. On a related but serious side, to show how bad things are in New Orleans, several months ago an 8 year old kid with a .45 caliber pistol, tried to hi-jack a Police Car, while the officer was in it!

I've somehow managed to have two accounts. This one and another one. No idea how I did that, but they've both been in existence for a while.
Can they be merged? Actually, I don't even know if the other account has anything worthwhile in it to be merged. Probably not.
Sigh.
