🤖 In a world where everyone and their mother is tripping over themselves to build a humanoid robot, it turns out making them remotely dexterous is still as elusive as a working hoverboard. 🚀 Apparently, it takes more than just buckets of venture capital to give a robot the grace of a drunken toddler. 🙃

A quotation from Terry Pratchett
His movements could be called cat-like, except that he did not stop to spray urine up against things.
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author

Arcane Cache: Review to ari against the bug blizzard, a bullet hell/puzzle hybrid game by @moult .
The game captures the atmosphere of old low-budget productions damn well, and felt highly nostalgic for me – while playing probably remarkable better than these titles ever did; the whole atmosphere is dreamy, enrapturing. Fitting to this, the environmental message is there, but – and that has become a rare thing – one with a positive note: The robotic, world devouring flies might still be defeated in the end.

@TindrasGrove I once tried to teach @SonOfSunTzu to knit and - it's entirely possible I'm just a terrible teacher - but results were Hilarious
He can play Halo and Fps's fine, I have no controller dexterity,
BUT
I can play several string and wooden instruments and do various Yarncrafts and he cannot fathom how I can do independent 'magic' with both hands doing different things
He can drive, I cannot.

#gardening not only strengthens #muscles, but also improves muscle #coordination. An Australian study found that gardening was more physically beneficial than #walking. People who #garden regularly experience increased #strength, #balance, and #dexterity. #angstromminerals
Thinking about the usability of glue and glue bottles for kids.
It is difficult for children because it requires complex dexterity: squeezing the bottle with considerable force, applying the glue in the right place and in the right amount — without dripping or getting it on your fingers. And then sealing the bottle tightly so the bottle can be used again, another day.

RUSH's ALEX LIFESON Says His Arthritis Is 'Slowly Getting Worse': 'I Don't Know If I Can Play Like I Played' 10 Years Ago

I just accidentally (haha) discovered an #exercise for myself while #jamming around:
Think of a favourite #riff you know and love really well, that spans at least an octave and lasts a bar or two.
Play it in every #key you can, either incrementally or randomly. See where you need to limber up, if finding the right #notes is at all unfamiliar.
(I'm sure this is common practice for some of us; it's only just dawned on me)
Chop Stacks from Red Flag Games is a fun little dexterity game that teaches you how to use chopsticks in the comfort of your own home.

I lack the two-handed #Dexterity for traditional #Flossing. I've used #Floss #Picks for years, but I've learned they only reach between teeth; they can't wrap around teeth or sweep the gumline.
