Fans of the Uncanny Valley will be delighted to know that roboticists in Japan have taken another giant leap toward creeping us right the fuck out, with two new female-appearing androids that will be interacting with guests at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation in Tokyo.
Almost not OT, but a co-worker and I were talking about the old Hall of Presidents back when they were cheesy animatronic thing-ies. Back in the day they would quote themselves, make jokes at each other...all with whirring noises and clacking jaws. It brought necromancy to life. I especially enjoyed the time the Kennedy puppet malf'd. "Ask not what your country can do for you youuu youuurrrr yo"

Robots are people, my friend.
In my book, until it says &quot;Bite my shiny metal ass&quot;, it&#039;s not a real robot.
My Roomba talks too. It tells me who needs to be punished.
Uncanny.
I call her Roomba.
More likely they will rise up and make us sammiches. &quot;Smashedinhat on rye with mayo&quot; for example.
I wouldn&#039;t fuck that robot with Mitt&#039;s USB dongle.
Fortunately there&#039;s no way for a human to have sex using a machine. That could never, ever happen.
Well most certainly it is capable of email and has a camera, not to mention an instagram account, so be careful!
That song was Rob&#039;s homage to &quot;Blade Runner.&quot;
