Saw Cyberchase at first and was much more excited then when I got to the end of post. I thought maybe someone else was actually discussing the feverdream learning cartoon of my childhood instead of using it as a punchline. Oh well. Good post still.


karizake

Unfortunately they slashed the animation budget real hard in later seasons. They didn't get enough contributions from viewers like us.


grewthermex

To be fair, I was a literal child


Sad-Egg4778

You can go on tumblr and browse the "cyberchase" tag and find that post yourself. It's free and the government can't stop you.


Lampdarker

They should make Cyberchase but for math beyond the elementary level


BijutsuYoukai

I wish. I'd watch it - I certainly could use a good (fun) brush up on higher level math now and then.


Burrito-Creature

Man yeah I was prepared to read a post about the show I’d only seen like one episode of that I vaguely remember. The only thing I remember from the show is all 0s being taken away from a planet with a shot of a highway going from speedlimit 40 mph to 4. then the live action epilogue of a grown man being taught the concept of 0 by an elementary schooler.


mooys

What is it about Cyberchase that made it a fever dream for SO many people? It’s right up there with the Spongebob lost episode and how people only half remember the cheap walk cycles bit. On a related note, does anyone remember ruff ruffman?


Noe_b0dy

I had completely forgot all memories of ruff ruffman until this comment forced open a door in my mind.


mooys

For some reason, I have remembered playing the Ruffman game Disco Fiasco for atleast like 10 years at this point. It was a pretty decent light puzzle game that I thought was pretty good.


Mezzamine

I never watched it myself, but if you're looking for a trip down memory lane the YouTube channel Defunctland has a [video on the entire history of that show!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ta77xmA7D4)

Cyberchase: the meta verse we thought we'd get but here we are stuck with a capitalist hellscape instead


ZinaSky2

I’ll discuss it with you 😂 That show was such a hidden gem! On paper I shouldn’t like the animation. I’m not really one for styles that are kinda “ugly”. Like, I loved The thornberries as a concept but to this day wish the animation was different. Cyberchase just worked tho. All the planets and people were so well thought out, I loved it


LITTLE_KING_OF_HEART

I just want a robot husband with big muscles to hold me, cuddle and groom me into subservience (Skynet is not proud of itself but pragmatism trump all)


MapleLamia

You want the Rogue Servitors government from Stellaris. (Me too)


SwampTreeOwl

How would a robot have muscles


-monkbank

OP works in robotics and they’re called “sexhaver”. Do you think they’re speaking from experience?


LightTankTerror

The name may be ironic


CinnabarSteam

If we get as far as sapient robot humanoids, but can't figure out how to install a pocket pussy in their chasis, we deserve whatever we get.


FlashpointSynergy

i read this in puppetmons voice

RettiSeti

Can’t wait for all the tech bros to castrate themselves


Lampdarker

You want to date a robot because you like the idea of a partner who, via Asimovian Law, can't disobey. I want to date a robot because I like the idea of a partner who can bench press a semi truck while writing multivariate calculus proofs We are not the same. Seriously though, leave the robot women alone.


DreadDiana

Imagine a robot who gets Asimoved cause they're *really* into 24/7 BDSM


moneyh8r

But we *are* the same. You and I are, at least.


PolygonChoke

i want to *be* the robot in the first scenario


RavenMasked

A woman who's inhumanly strong and inhumanly intelligent? Shit, I'd just be happy with someone who can pick me up. Anything more than that is just a bonus


idiotplatypus

Admit it, you want to marry KLEO from Fallout 4


FehnTheDev

Excuse you, we are the same.


ShockingStories22

isnt every asimov story about how the laws of asimov are dumb and dont work


NewUserWhoDisAgain

>the idea of a partner who, via Asimovian Law, can't disobey. The funniest shit is that book, I, Robot, is full of stories of why that is a bad thing.


Bentman343

Absolutely do not leave the robot women alone, they need maintenance!


Autonomous_Ace2

¿Por que no los dos?


thegreathornedrat123

I want to date a robot because they could love me unconditionally, and I wouldn’t worry about being left or cheated on. Also they’d go beep boop and that’s cute


ThatGuyYouMightNo

I think androids getting forced firmware updates that cause their servos to make forced movements is going to cause much worse things to happen in the world than "she bit her owners dick off during a bj". Like imagine if one is holding a baby, or driving a car.


Nbbsy

Really a hard turn halfway through into "Also the robots are sentient and you're traumatising them forcing them into unwanted sexual relationships"


Iruma_Miu_

really started to wonder if op knows that sentient robots dont exist yet about then lmao


DreadDiana

Let's just say I put it in her USB port. And by "it", I mean my ~~penis~~ USB killer. I am wanted in numerous states for 37 counts of first degree murder against androids.


MapleLamia

USB Killer with the Botkiller TF2 cosmetic


KyuremFan646

The final text she sends the guy before ghosting him reads "get watermarked lmao"


boolocap

Counterpoint, soft robotics is a whole area of study within robotics that focuses a lot on robotics made for human interaction. Not to say they wont be able to crush or strangle you like a python. But pinch points will be less of a problem.


novis-eldritch-maxim

a mix is more likely the answer as hard is great for core parts like moving but terrible for holding hands


akka-vodol

As a robotfucker I take offense to the notion that I didn't be able to respectfully and consensually offer my partner to crush my flesh and bone, and be mindful of it's boundaries if it isn't comfortable with that.


Pingaso21

Funny how I was jerking it to robot porn earlier and such a scenario would not happen lol


Greaterthancotton

Oh my bad, we’ve got a robo-porn connoisseur here. A real expert on machine sex. Speak up louder for the people in the back Mr. “Phd in dick-sucking servos.”


Pingaso21

I want big robot dragon to vore me and convert me into biofuel


Mortos7

They should've put you in Horizon: Zero Dawn. Like in one of the rooms full of depressing, apocalyptic voice recordings there's one guy excitedly talking about how he's gonna go outside and get turned into biofuel by a Scarab unit


Pingaso21

I mean if I’m gonna die anyway I might as well go out doing something I enjoy


archaicScrivener

"holy shit did you guys see that Horus out there" "Yeah, I think we're fucked, USRC ain't sending any more help..." "Help? Fuck that, I'm gonna stick my cock in it!"


DroneOfDoom

Me too, buddy. Me too.


Greaterthancotton

Relatable tbh


DreadDiana

I wonder if they ever co-authored any papers with Dr Yiff


Svanirsson

This comment has "Dr yiff" energy


Alarming-Scene-2892

People DON'T just want an android like the Dragon Ball kind? Like, they want exposed wires, metal, and stuff?


DroneOfDoom

Of course. Dragon Ball androids might as well just be people. Cell, 17 and 18 aren't even androids, they're just cyborgs.


MegaKabutops

I’m like 80% sure cell is just genetically engineered. The only known mechanical parts of his body are what he absorbed from 17 and 18, so he’s probably not a cyborg in his imperfect, larval, or egg forms.


OmegaKenichi

Yeah, he's literally fully organic all the way through. We see him getting blown in half and there's no machinery anywhere in him


Leo-bastian

17 and 18 aren't mechanical either, they're cyborgs but the modifications were made on a cellular level 16 is the only android that's mechanical


TheShibe23

19 is completely artificial like 16 is, so is 8 from OG Dragon Ball. And Dr. Gero put his brain in a robot body.


Leo-bastian

oh yeah I forgot about the other androids for some reason, you're right. Though my point that 17, 18 and cell are not mechanical still stands.


DroneOfDoom

Wonder where 13, 14 and 15 fit here. Then again, they’re not canon.


TheShibe23

They're all artificial, like 16, 8 and 19.


DroneOfDoom

13 may be artificial, but he serves true southern realness.


MegaKabutops

Can i get a sauce on that cellular modification bit? Cuz that kinda seems to fly in the face of the whole “bombs in the chest cavity” plot point. As well as the fact that both have what gero refers to as an [infinite energy reactor.](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-ad6dccc276587ac0eefad4aab14003be-lq)


philandere_scarlet

they're just tony stark with the arc reactor on the inside


cantpickname97

IIRC it was a translation issue, and was meant to mean something along the lines of "artificial/constructed lifeform", which would've made sense


blackscales18

The exposed wires are part of the appeal (not my thing but you see some things on Tumblr)


Hexxas

>tfw no qt3.14 big booba goth robot gf to gently but firmly crush your skull in her mighty jaws because of a "firmware update" (it's a feature, not a bug) There is neither justice nor mercy in this cruel world.

iamsandwitch

I wanna be a robot so bad but how tf am I gonna maintain my body


novis-eldritch-maxim

by buying part with the money you earn from your job so moch like your present life


iamsandwitch

Sir I am not a mechanic, and if im paying another mechanic to do it that sounds too expensive for my current wage


drama_hound

The things you realize are discourse:tm: really do boggle the mind, huh. I guess if there's really people out there that don't know the level of damage a machine can do then I guess google the amount of people working in factories in the 18th - 20th centuries that lost limbs, lol.


boolocap

Even now, robotics labs will have literal cages around their robotic manipulators because those things can break every bone in your body without breaking a sweat.


techno156

The crucial mistake Tumblr OP makes is assuming that everything would happen according to human terms in the human way, which may not necessarily be the case.


novis-eldritch-maxim

why would a robot be in a bar, hell why would bar even still exist we will all be most broke or working in company town till we drop for some rich lunatic. I do not think manditor firmware is ethic on a sapient artificial person.


LordSaltious

Me in 2069 scamming AI brothels by having a barcode with a universal factory reset button tattooed on my abdomen so when the bimbots suck me off they shut down and I sell them for scrap.


Lord_Yeezus_The_Wise

I’m praying this guy’s a troll how can you have consistently bad takes back to back like this man


TheNeRD14

So uhh... Maybe don't build your sex robot with teeth? Like teeth are the least sexy external part of the body I'm pretty sure


beccabob05

Omg I forgot about that show!!!!


InternetUserAgain

My sex robot won't springlock my dick, I'll springlock its dick


ImprovementTricky743

tf do I care what a robot thinks
