Congratulations going through life a dingleberry piece of shite. You may not care. But that’s more depressing for you.

Lazy confession of the day....I have a big family and there is lots to bring back and forth out there. It's a pain in the arse first thing in the morning and then again after drinking in the sun all day. I'd pay $20 each way for a concierge beach service robot to bring my things back and forth.

lol
LSU's Mechanical Enginnering program has a Senior Design class where students receive requests from the community to build special machines
My friend built a machine for an ALS patient to "shoot hoops with his dad"
They essentially built a pneumatic basketball catapult the child could control with his eyes
All projects are funded by donors to the school

a-hole. The girl they built it for has MS (Multiple Sclerosis before one of you dicks says Mississippi). She was a really nice person and this was a great project. I was involved in the program this year and last as a sponsor.

Well, I’d say the smiling girl who’s happy to be able to go on the beach now seems glad to have it.

We should buy one for Oweo

Correct, they rent them in a lot of popular beach towns
However I believe this is a case of just providing someone with tech, by just building it themselves, not necessarily inventing something new...
