Dude has a "thumbdrive" for a finger.
The story behind this is that Jerry had a motorcycle accident last May and lost a finger. When the doctor working on the artificial finger heard he is a hacker, the immediate suggestion was to embed a USB "finger drive" to the design. Now he carries a Billix Linux distribution and the Freddy Got Fingered movie as part of his hand.

I'm wondering how practical that actually is though. Whenever you have to load something on a computer, you have to stand there with your finger stuck in a machine for however long it takes to transfer the data.
