    Yeah, that’s never going to mend itself. Just unbolt the old and bolt on the replacement. Must be an American hospital….

    That’s either 630 decimal or 626 depending on whether that’s a 1 or a 0 under the strap

    Meanwhile, two 1950’s vintage robots have a moment in the hospital…

    The Signer: I just got a (new) heart myself. I am told this is what you do when you care. My surgeon was a real Wiz. How about yours?

    … Say … Is there an oil can in here?

    Why is he writing that he had his bolt torqued by that guy’s sister?

    Is 10-in/lb a lot of torque?

    Seems less than hand tight.

    Kind of crude to write that on a cast.

    Wouldn’t he digitally sign the cast?

    There are only 10 kinds of people… Those who understand binary, and those who don’t.

    630 or 626? Can’t see the 3rd place bit. Luckily, there’s not but 10 options.

    That would be the replacement part number.

    Just as our bodies are able to heal from injuries, obviously these robots have that capability. The cast is there to keep the injured limb immobile while millions of nanobots race to the rescue.
