Yeah this is what I call the Minority Report fallacy. People see or imagine an interface that looks or sounds cool, but don't think through what it would be like to really use it every day.
Do I really want to wave my arms to control an interface? No, they'd get tired immediately. A mouse on a desk where I can rest my arms isn't sexy because it's not new, but it's pretty much ideal.

Using our arms more would probably be really good for us. If we had to use our legs and feet to move a mouse then computer programmers might be some of the fittest people on the planet, instead of some of the fattest. I say this while lying on my bed and tapping with my fingers on my tablet... we're doomed...
- add-sub-mul-div 3y agoYou're right, we should probably all work out more, but gravity is gravity and I'd still rather not fight it all day.
