Are We Transitioning From Capitalism to Silicon Serfdom?::The idea that we are entering an era of techno-feudalism that will be worse than capitalism is chilling and controversial.

I presume his arms are detachable and interchangeable. He is currently sporting his “business meeting” arms, will switch to his “swole bro” arms when he goes to the gym, and then has a set of shorter arms that he couples with trousers with very deep pockets when he is reviewing the salaries of the lower paid Amazon employees.
