The Hand of God

The picture was taken at the Vilo Prado Emergency Care Centre Unit in Sao Paolo, and the nurse technician who demonstrated the idea is called Semei Araújo Cunha.

As per Indian Express, she added: “As we had an intubated patient, we decided to do it as a form of affection, stroking, humanizing, as if someone was taking her hand, and also to soften the extremities that were very cold, the hand was very cold”.

I think that is a great idea. Some people are calling this the Human Touch, which simulates human interaction.

    The End of an Era: Redbox Shuts Down All Kiosks — In a move that marks the end of an era, Redbox, the iconic DVD rental service, is shutting down all of its kiosks. This decision comes as part of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation by its parent company, Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment¹². For over two decades, Redbox has been a familiar sight at grocery stores, convenience stores, and Walmarts across the United States, offering a convenient way to rent movies and games.
