indeed so. the thin end of the wedge.


I grew up with the whole "world would be better in the 21st century" idea. Tomorrow's world was my favourite show. Not until I became older/more cynical did I actually start to think about the negatives. Sometimes I just like to revisit my youth.

No, it doesn't match what I want. It can't handle doing menial tasks.

A sufficiently advanced humanoid robot could handle most menial tasks, if advanced enough it would outdo any mom on this planet.

I want a robot slave, not a hockey puck on steroids.

Awww, thanks but you missed my point. Kirstey Alley is "cute", robots are just devices…

You can keep your 'cute' robot, I'll take Kirstie.

Wash, rinse, repeat…
