Sam was one of those who had no family or relatives. At least no one he would recognize.

Considering this, he decided that he would rather die in a ditch than go to fight for government bastards whom he fiercely hated with all his soul. They took from him even those small things he had, and now they were going to take away his life.

Well his life now really wasn’t worth anything. He didn’t mind giving it away at its current state. But not for them, not for these bastards.

Frankly, his hatred of the country has long grown into hatred of all humanity.

He lived enough to understand that being at the top and becoming part of the network, he would also put pressure on those below.

You might think that people like him who became unwitting victims of circumstances were not to blame for anything, but Sam didn’t think so.

Even if slaves and slave owners changed places, it would not change anything. Their sympathy would be enough, at best, for a while, and then they would get used to their new situation.

Sam could only be surprised when some idiot sincerely believed that by becoming president he would help people or something like that. Ravings of a madman. Only a complete idiot can think that way.

Many people ridiculed the experiment of prisoners and guards, which is not surprising.

In order to realize reality you need to eat a lot of crap. Only after getting hit in the face properly person have a chance to get realization of true world nature..

This was the reality. This was the essence of people. The most ordinary people.

Nevertheless, Sam hid his hatred far away. No one cared about a pathetic cockroach like him and his hatred.

The sun pleasantly warmed the soul and Sam was in a good mood.

He walked calmly among the trees and abandoned roads, looking for something interesting.

It’s strange that there was practically no one here in wastelands, meaning homeless people.

For some reason they preferred to rummage through garbage cans but stay in the cities; almost no one came here.

Not like he was complaining about it. More like was just curious.

Sam loved summer and hated winter. It was very difficult in winter.

Only Frank, who lived on the edge of the city in his workshop helped him. Although Frank refused to give Sam any work, he still accepted his finds in the wasteland and sometimes helped in return during the winter.

In the summer, Sam usually just stored everything he found and rarely visited Frank.

He turned his attention to the watch on his wrist.

Sam

Physique - 1.045

Agility 1.115

Endurance 0.924

Durability 0.772

The condition is satisfactory.

There were also various indicators such as radiation levels and pulse.

Actually, the gadget was mainly called Pulse.

This device was quite a popular toy. They once tried to come up with something similar just to monitor people health, but this idea mostly failed.

On the other hand, when digital values of various human physical parameters were added to this gadget, the popularity of the device skyrocketed.

Of course, there were still quite a few who outright hated this thing.

For example, an overweight person in most cases is unlikely to be happy to stare at his weight all day long and will generally avoid the scale like fire.

Nevertheless, the technology of this device was quite interesting.

Although Sam did not know the details, for example, the agility indicator could change in real time.

The device had a special test function similar to a regular sports watch. You can time yourself and run 100 meters, after which agility is updated depending on the results of the run.

Of course this was just one of the options. You could do no exercise at all on purpose, but after days and weeks the device would still collect enough information.

Initially, the results were not very accurate, but over time they more and less reflected reality.

The remaining parameters were updated accordingly.

This not very clever device has literally changed the lives of many people.

Usually keeping yourself in shape is quite difficult for various reasons, including simple laziness.

However, when a person sees his parameters on the device all the time, he subconsciously tries to improve them, which is why people often start doing exercises, jogging, and so on.

Even people who are just minding their own business, going to work or sitting on the couch, try to move a little more, a little faster.

It’s even more motivating when these parameters grow, even if only slightly.

This is so motivating that the health of many people has improved significantly since the spread of the Pulse device.

Thus this device and its analogues quickly captured the market.

They say that originally something like this was developed for the convenience of the military in the dragon country or something like that. But like with mobile phones once developed for US military now this technology has spread everywhere.

It’s a pity that this thing was a rare exception. Mostly development of technology in the last two hundred years has almost completely stagnated.
