Oh. Yeah... didn't watch th'video. Just did and... yeah.

Yeah.

[misko27]

The President Malia Obama? Well that would be a interesting one. And as a sex robot scandal?


Also, wat. Also, it occurs to me the perverted possibilities are endless.

[Sexbots are apparently going to be a thing 40 years from now]

... 40 years? I'd expect sooner, depending on how feature, uh. Rich? A thing folks are after. There's already stuff that, like, talks and whatnot on the market, from what I recall. There's plenty of money being thrown at the development of such things, I do believe, and fairly basic models of something like that probably isn't far off (and there's probably prototypes already built/in construction), if folks wanted it built. And they kinda' do.

Mostly I'm curious about the wat response, though. What exactly were you expecting? Development of such things was an inevitability from the word go, and the likelyhood of it lagging far behind other developments in the robotics field was vanishingly slim. We're humans. This is one of the things we do. Have done, are doing, will do going forward.

I swear I remember seeing a Cracked article about the ways porn has improved modern life and technology. Assuming it continues to do so, I'm sure we'll have actual household robots not long after the sexbots.

I work at a science centre over the summer and today I saw a ~13 year old kid with a mullet.

A mullet. One of these.

Truly the world is coming to an end.

Sexbots are the driving force behind most of the VR industry. There's been a bunch of feminists in Canada who lobbied to ban sexbots as a physical thing before they're even made a while back, but I can't find the article at the moment so think of that as you will.

Feminism is confusing all the time.

Then again given "feminism" isn't one thing it is a big pile of things... I guess it would be.

It is actually why I don't want to call it anything because it isn't "one thing".

To the extent that I'd almost go as far as to ban the term "feminism" altogether and force people to actually state what kind of feminism they are referring to, if I was the douche ruler of the world.

Ehh the only child haircut that I can think of right now that a kid can get away with but not an adult is a Mushroom cut.

Cute on a child but ugly on an adult.

13 year olds have horrible fashion sense, and they usually encompass every horrible fashion idea that comes along. So I'm not surprised. Now, if it becomes a trend, you may have to worry.

[Neonivek]

Look kid mullets can work. YES they are ugly but remember that there is more to fashion then direct beauty.

You clearly don't know the point of the kid mullet.

This girl I know has mono and apparently all her friends are treating her like a leper because of it. I'm at a loss for words to describe how ridiculous that is.

Mono is a contagious disease that can make you very sick for a period of time from a week, to several months. And it isn't just a std, it is also transmitted by sharing food and drink or even failure to wash hands after touching as it is carried by mucus and saliva and can survive well outside the body.

I got mono from someone double dipping a spoon in a jar of peanut butter. If I were you, I wouldn't be getting that close for a while either.

Humans did it. You see those treads? It moves.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Humans did it. You see those treads? It moves.

Now, they just need to attack some oversized awe-inspiring guns to it and it shall be complete.

At least until we scrounge up more steel to make it even bigger and with MORE dakka. It's already got some impressive choppy, though.
