Might be the most advanced robot in the world:
http://video.foxnews.com/v/1264811886001/
I thought this thread was going to be about Asmodean.
I thought it must be all those brains he's been eating.
I wonder how long it takes for kuru to kick in?
QuoteHonda's upgraded version of Asimo can jog at nearly 6 miles per hour; open a thermos and pour juice into a cup
So how long 'till we can buy a Honda we don't drive or ride, but in which we reside?
Everyone, I want you to meet The Asmo's Japanese cousin, Asimo-san.
It has legs with which to jog and arms with which to pour, but unfortunately no mouth with which to express grumpiness or devour brains. And it hasn't shed its white skin for gray yet.
I wish I had one when I was sick.
"Asimo, get in the kitchen and make me a sammich and poor me some juice!"
I am so happy I wasn't the only one who read that Asmo.
I wish this thread was about Asmo instead... We need more of those.
Ooh, an ego-stroking! ;D
Your stock is rising! ;D
For anyone else who wants a higher stock, the damned thing is big enough for everyone to polish a corner or two ;D
The first five seconds of that video just gave me chills.
I'm pretty sure there is a horrible future just ahead with thousands of these faceless little bastards scurrying after us with commands for termination. So not how i wanted to die.

A can of black spray paint over their visor would bugger them!

You wanted to die while chased by a huge and menacing-looking robot with a face then..? ???

Somehow this description seems less menacing. Id rather it was some big mean looking machine that looks like its supposed to do the killing.
Rather then a pack of little white scurrying faceless dwarf things. But I'm sure when the robot attack comes they will look exactly like this. Cold and sterile and designed to deceive.
I also thought this thread was about Asmo, and was expecting to see an ego-stroking fest. ;D
I think it's cool that the robot can balance like that...

I know... Disappointing, aint it? :P
The robot IS interesting though. What we need now is to figure out some real AI to upload into it. :D
Asmo is great but I think there should be more Festering. Think about it. Mold Festering upon bread brought us penicillin. Dead bodies Festering in a massive trench helped to spread the Bubonic Plague, which led to population control. Nastiness Festering between a potential lover's teeth warns us against an adventure that may end our affinities for the wondrous beauty of love. Fester is not so bad. As Fester, I even maintain, upon my reflective dome, a smoothness that only Asmo could understand. Should I paint my perfectly round, smooth scalp gray, I would even look like Asmodean from the neck up.
I think there should be more Festering greatness in the world. Perhaps out of any disgusting display of Fester we could find some wonderful lessons about nature and humanity. In finding these things... I think we discover more than ever the human condition.

No no no.
Asmo's friends the rats and their minion fleas did that.
You shamelessly attempt to steal their greatest triumph, shame Fester, I begin to doubt you are a true Adams.
Perhaps you should seek a new path, possibly pus could be the fuel of the future.

Yes, the shamelessness of certain Festers is just... Astonishing. >:(

Don't you have that backwards? I always thought fleas bred mammals (including humans) as livestock. 8)

But Asmos, being made of clay and therefore incaspable of lactating, they breed fleas and donate them to their minion rats. It's all explained in The Asmo's Book of Unspeakable Evil in chapter 96, paragraph three.

Hmm, we should get our fester, hold him down and check he's not wearing a bald wig over a head of curly locks!
Quote from: Asmodean on December 03, 2011, 01:09:46 PMchapter 96, paragraph three.
Paragraph three not paragraph flea you stupid boy!
Paper work, oh well here we go, alas your child died as the result of being struck in the temple by a chalk board duster.
Blah, blah, blah de blah....
It is true we have not had a chalk board at Snt Asmodeans for decades now but we do strive to preserve tradition.
I'm sure you agree that.....
It's a thankless task culling the dregs......
Only a total dolt would fail to appreciate......

All the more reason to track down the epicenter of all the local fester to the department of letters at the local university. ;) Full of old and moldy hands over there, with strips of rotting flesh hanging over each finger...

Alas... at least somebody sees the potential. I do apologize for trying to ride the Asmodean train to popularity and stardom, however. I get quite full of myself when I'm drunk--very prone to delusions of grandeur.

What is this crap?
We can have more one train running at once.
You are our Fester!What could be more grand than that?
Well Asmo maybe, but a true Adams would be plotting his demise.

I only get those sorts of delusions with a bottle of Bourbon, so I keep those things at bay ;D A good distance away...yeah...
...

Because everybody knows that you can't let those sorts of things go to your head if you want to keep it.
(awful joke)
Anyways don't you worry...as long as there is life, there
will be fester ;D

AAAHHHHH!!!!!
Am I the only one who thought he was cute and wants to pet him? They treated him like a dog... It made me feel sad for him. :P

I have always liked Asimo and the ethos behind him. Honda do have a very open research brief that lets their enginers 'spread their wings' very effectivly.
