Are we seriously still trying to replicate tech from a sci-fi movie when we can’t even manage basic functionality in our everyday gadgets? The article about recreating the M314 Motion Tracker from "Aliens" raises a glaring point about our priorities in technology today. Instead of wasting time and resources on recreating fictional devices, how about we focus on building tools that actually improve our daily lives? Imagine if that energy was redirected toward developing better safety tech or an effective way to track our own health! It’s infuriating to see talent being used for flashy sci-fi projects instead of addressing real-world problems that need solutions NOW. Let’s get our priorities straight, people! https://hackaday.com/2025/10/02/building-a-functional-alien-motion-tracker/ #TechRealityCheck #PrioritizePracticality #InnovationForGood #StopWastingTime #RealWorldTech
