I found clues in your stream 🙂
You always seem to be ready with the camera to take interesting shots, it’s like it’s grafted to your eye…do you feel a nasty popping sensation radiate through your skull when they snap in a new model? 😉

Heh… you can see an older bilayer flex circuit model in my icon…
The mod artist wanted to see Bud’s yuks before he installed the gun, which in other surroundings might have been construed as an insult but was standard business practice here in the Leased Territories. When he was satisfied that this wasn’t a stick-up, he theezed Bud’s forehead with a spray gun, scalped back a flap of skin, and pushed a machine, mounted on a delicate robot arm like a dental tool, over Bud’s forehead.
A nasty popping sensation radiated through Bud’s skull when the robot arm snapped in the new model…
"It’s loaded with a hundred rounds of popcorn," the proprietor said, "so you can test out the yuvree. Soon as you’re comfortable with it, I’ll load it for real." He stapled the skin of Bud’s forehead back together so it’d heal invisibly. You could pay the guy extra to leave a scar there on purpose, so everyone would know you were packing…
