Just in time for the Christmas season. Something everyone always wanted of course  "Horrifying finger attachment lets your phone touch you back Have you ever wished your phone could tap you when you had a notification, drag itself over to you on its own or touch you back? No? Too bad. Researchers in France have developed a finger-like phone and tablet attachment that can do all of those things and more. Called MobiLimb, it's made up of five servo motors, an Arduino microcontroller and a sensor, and it can do a number of unsettling things that are straight out of nightmares." www.engadget.com/2018/10/05/finger-attachment-phone-touch-you-back/ |

Wonder with it being French in origin whether such an app will ''white flag'' its users and be able to emulate the actions of Mrs Palm or Mr.Palm and their five daughters / sons?

I wasn't quite as inclusive as you though, it must be Mrs Palm and her 5 daughters. |

Clearly you discriminate there Just personal choice, if someone wanted a Mr Palm and his 5 sons, that's up to them, I have no problem with that. Salt and Vinegar or Cheese n Onion crisps? Everyone has a preference some like both equally. Some even like a Cheese n Onion butty/sarnie/sanga/sandwich with Salt n Vinegar crisps on.
If you'd excuse me I have a muffin defrosting ready for todays bacon rebellion.
