Woolie has stated multiple times he would sell out the human race for impractical things

Being an Elon Musk fanboy shouldn't be a surprise

How could that possibly surprise you? Woolie's been very upfront with his Cool Tech>Human Lives opinions for a while, man.

EDIT: Beaten.

The androids only costing 8 grand is loving ludicrous. I can't even fathom how something that advanced could get that cheap.

Isn't it $8k used? Maybe androids depreciate like luxury cars and a new one costs like $40k.

The only one of the three who is more or less consistently socially-aware is Pat. Woolie and Matt can be huge foot in mouth generators.

I mean, I support Cool Tech in the hypothetical too, but once we see the actual poo poo we get in the real world, it's a whole different matter to be all "this is totally worth it!"

It took a moment to realize why the second flow chart had Pat explode into laughter but when it hit, woof.

Elon musk is an epic bacon internet dude who's really into rockabilly culture.

What I'm saying basically any of the best friends could probably beat him.

So onto bingo; does trying the failsafe and the failsafe not working count as "Why no Failsafe?" cause otherwise, discounting the demo, this is a bit of a dud.

I think I might actually put watching the Let's Play on hold and play Detroit for myself after watching that first episode. Even though the story might be Cagey trash, that world design looks really cool and I want to look around it.

Pretty sure top of the line was 8K that an employee was trying to upsale. Another model was 5 and I didnt catch the price on pre-owned.

Maybe tonight if they really are going to just swap between the three instead of putting Detroit as an always 9pm video.

I kinda hope Detroit is always 9pm but for some reason I think they're doing the other thing

loving christ.

That's a month of labor in a lovely job for a fully automated android you can stick into virtually any job. No sick days, no chance of the robot being a horrible sub-human being that falls asleep in the restroom and manages to crack the toilet with his head. What the gently caress is the cost of living, then? If automation is this advance and piss-cheap then technology in general should be hyper affordable. I can see explanations for that boiling down to Capitalism Is lovely, but i'm gonna wait and see Cage explain this in his own dumb way.

That's loving crazy. It means that an android costs about as much as a mid range TV in today's money. A good gaming PC rig would set you back more than a fully sapient robot in this world.

Eh, they could've waited a week or they could've done it now. At least the game's here now. Otherwise they'd know to beeline to chapter ten so you get the fast travel upgrade so you can go anywhere with it instead of just Brok's shop.

I've been rewatching the KOTOR LP and it's much more enjoyable when it's all there, and not every other day or sometimes even months apart.

The Gendohardin saga is improved when I'm not waiting between 4 LPs

I've said it in webcomic and Agents of Shield threads many times.

No piece of media has ever been improved by having to wait to see more of it. Imagine watching ten minutes of a movie every weekend. Or reading a half a page of a book every six weeks.
