I wonder when we'll start paying useage fees for having skin.

Holy shit! I don't want to find out what my skin will look like if one of those devices are used on it.

what the fuck?

What the hell is going on...

That's a fucked up news article worthy of slashdot.

Microsoft patented a "method", not the human skin. Nitwits.

Oh, and I don't think there will be too many people willing to integrate their skin with some gadget. (unless for medical purposes)

You never know.

Bill Gates did not invent the Borg, despite what Linus Torvalds wants you to think.

What the hell just happened?

You were assimilated.

Yeah microchips have been made pretty small. I've seen this pic of this ant under a super microscope and these dudes from London made a microchip so small that the ant was holding it in it's mandable. (mandable is it's jaw thingy, for the illiterate)

It would be funny as hell if you misspelled mandible in your quest to be clear for the sake of the illiterate.
