    Tattoos and the new Apple watch

    http://www.inkedmag.com/rethink-buyi...oure-tattooed/

    I have no idea how the watch works, but I found this interesting.

    Yeah. I read about this too. Sure glad I don't have any wrist tattoos. I do plan to get one of these watches someday.

    I don't plan on a full sleeve or wrist tattoo.

    come to think of it a watch is not on the radar either. Apple or Casio

    I'm curious to see how this watch goes over time. In other words, when something is first released there's so many unknowns that start to happen over time. Like you hear about peoples phones burning up in their pocket. Or signals being broken by "holding it wrong". Thing about the Apple watch that is different from a regular Casio watch or something is that it has a powerful lithium battery in it and it's sending out a bunch of high intensity signals constantly. How will that affect peoples health over time -- if at all? What happens on a hot day? Does the watch get hot and burn your skin? What happens in 5 years of having a lithium battery pressed against your skin? What happens if the lithium battery decides to get really hot and catch on fire? Just so many unanswered questions.

    I wear a watch because I am too lazy to take my phone out of my pocket, press a button to turn the screen on, and look at the time.

    Do I detect a pattern? I mean, we are both old enough to remember Armadillo World Headquarters...

    Yeah. It's funny. The smartphone industry has spent the last 10 years trying to get the watch off our wrists. They finally succeeded and now they want us to put it back on. lol
