Hopping on the questions abt Ry’s cybernetics, I…am lost, lol. I can’t quite picture how his visor and jaw things would look?? do you happen to have any pics you have for reference you’d be be willing to share? 🥺

This is close to the visor, but it's more opaque so you can't see his eyes.

And this is close to the jaw, except without the teeth! The visor connects to the part of the jaw attachment beside the ear.

And when the HoloVeil is activated, the visor and jaw part and the space in between (where his nose is) is all covered by a holographic projection that makes him look kinda glitchy like:

But more pinkish/purple.

I hope that makes more sense!!

"…cars can “watch, listen, and collect information about what you do and where you go” in them.

Mozilla looked at 25 car brands – all earning their *Privacy Not Included warning label.

In their findings, Mozilla said all of those brands collected too much personal data, and 84 percent of them share or sell that data." #WDEFNews12 #TechByte with #EmilyCassulo
