When you can't charge your bionic arm because people need to charge their phones... priorities.
We can't get over that Angel Giuffria had a hard time finding a charging outlet to charge up her bionic arm.
Giuffria uses a prosthesis that requires a battery charge every few hours. At SXSW, she needed to charge up but found it difficult to convince people to give up their outlets, because not everyone is familiar with bionic limbs.
*Spoiler* She got charged up in the end!
#CYBORGPROBLEMS! You know when you think you plug your phone in at night - & you didn’t. Well, apparently I did that w my #bionic arm last night SO a courier is bringing my arm charger to #SXSW #Ottobock pic.twitter.com/pauiLwILV8

#CyborgProblems🤖 FYI: People at this @SXSW panel refused to give up charging their phones so I could charge my arm 🙃✨ but I found an outlet in the back of the room so CHARGE ME UP. pic.twitter.com/RYosq8MwN2

She was very understanding of the entire situation.
Y’all I’m not mad at them! I thought it was funny (bc there was another plug nearby.) For all I know, they were confused by the entire situation since everyone here at #SXSW seems to think my arm is a video game fashion statement or fancy lit up glove not a prosthesis ¯\_(ツ)_,
