For Americans: Adding this to a cast will cost $82,000 in insurance charges.
They're living in 2126.

More like $82,000 not covered by your insurance

I love the hand beneath it answering my question if this was to heavy or not.

That actually seems to be the photographer’s hand, judging from the heels.
(Is that the word? Heels? The two large fatty bits on your palm #NotANativeSpeaker)

We don’t have a common parlance word for those two bits of the palm in English. Do not say “heel” though, that is very wrong.
The medical term in English is “thenar” and “hypothenar”, but if you had just said “based on the palm" that would have been sufficient explanation for another speaker to get it.

You could probably invent something like this that’s not a cast, just an arm accessory holder sleeve thing. The cupholder would need to rotate for horizontal and vertical orientation probably
rumba@lemmy.zip 3 days ago
the cupholder needs to be gryoscopic, so it always points up due to it’s own weight.

Introducing angular momentum to a broken bone sounds awful. Gimbal is the tech you’re looking for. :)

And also lockable/adjustable, so I can 3D-print a fleshlight attachment for it.

I could 3D print something like this in a couple hours.

I think you mean the PHONE HOLDER needs to rotate for horizontal & vertical orientation. Not the cup holder.

Now THIS is something that needs to be boycott. ASAP! Think of all the productivity losses the world will suffer if we let this innovation fester until people forget how to use their left arms 😱

Took me a long time to realize this is a cast on someone’s arm and not a strange cream cheese train model…

I would like to subscribe to your cream cheese train model newsletter.

Cream cheese sculpting was not on my bingo card for 2026, yet here we ware.

Thanks, I was trying to figure out what the hell I was looking at.

I don’t think they do casts anymore, but I could be wrong. Haven’t seen one in ages.
