I_smell Posted January 4, 2013 I programmed my Big Dog to wait outside right before I descended the smokey steps of the Rusty Motherboard. Wading through a swamp of noise, I made my way to the bar..."Compressorhead playing Ace of Spades again, Sam? When's the last time we had a human band in this place!?" "Aaaaahh human bands aint worth the nano-creds!!!" An AR Drone offered me a cigarrette. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

melmer Posted January 7, 2013 Came to post the Motörhead video that was sweet Imagine popping down your local pub that occasional has live music at the weekends, you walk through the door and there's a robot bad playing Motörhead! I think I'd scream with excitement, then I'd scream in terror, then I'd order half an ale to calm my nerves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forbin Posted January 14, 2013 I forget where I heard it, but I think laughter and grinning are supposed to be used to communicate that while something is unexpected things are still OK. Maybe that's why grinning is so unsatisfying and terrifying in simulation and fear/sadness reads so well on that plastic boys face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
