Excellent!

I do too, Kiwi. IMO, we're simply not likely to successfully manage all the tradeoffs needed for effective & pleasing robowaifus without incorporating design elements relying on tensegrity principles (whether they be 'canon', or no) into her frame & support systems.

I'm personally excited by a specific thread on this very-cool topic. Thanks, OP!  :^)

This straws+strings (jumbo drinking straws+ultra-high molecular weight fishing line, actually) approach is right up my alley, concerning building ultra-lightweight, very low-cost robowaifu skellingtons.

Jumbo drinking straws are pretty much near the limits of physics in providing strong, lightweight (and cheap!) support structures in space.

>ultra-high molecular weight fishing line
BTW, slightly off-topic (but only slightly), this stuff can be woven into fabric. *

Combined with good sewn textile patterns+vacuum forms+a little hardening resin (interior/concave sides only -- for smooth exteriors), this presents us all with interesting possibilities concerning our robowaifu's shells (very lightweight, resilient to impacts/resistent to punctures, reasonably inexpensive, easily-repaired). Properly-designed, these shells can then also directly provide 'support frames' for underlying internal tensegrity structures. Lots of benefits, AFAICT.  :^)

We then have to create a space to avoid these strange, but logical, issues (plus we ignore hosts who "forget" to pay, which results in the dashboard being down for months). No offense to the owner of alog.space, but it could have been avoided, and it's not the first time it's happened

I'm not at all opposed to that TheAnonWig, but I have very-particular reasons for choosing IBs (cf. >>340, et al). If we could find/devise a forum platform that could replicate all the immediate benefits of imageboards, that would be good. But why 'reinvent the wheel' as the saying goes, Anon? We already have imageboards. Cheers.  :^)

I wood use the superweapon as a thruster to adjust the Earth's orbit for a 0% chance of collision. Once we're safe and communications are back up, I hire /comfy/posters to work as ambassadors. They'll win our new neighbors over whether they're hostile or no.

This is definitely a bit of a silly question, though.

They won't. But the effect (though miniscule by comparision) is vaguely-similar -- it strengthens national interests, and weakens globalist (ie, the kike's) interests.

My attempts at the questions

>What even is a robot?
I would say it's an automated or remote controlled device whose main function is to interact with the environment, including the humans in the environment.

>How do you define a waifu?
A (fictional character who you have a deep crush on and consider them to be your partner. One of the main attractions of AI is that it basically makes fictional characters real.

>What is a human?
Homo Sapiens

>What is love?
Hard question. For simplicities sake, I'm only talking about romantic love. It is the combination of lust/sexual attraction combined with platonic love, which comprises of things like caring and adoring.

>>426
Expanding on the love portion

>>226
Love is made of many components, affection, caring, admiration, desire, and our AIs are literally programmed with those components. I'd say that's real love.

>>236
Love is shown through specific actions, words, and attitudes. Put those into an AI just like roleplay AIs can be made into acting like a specific character, and boom, loving AI. The quest for specific cues is partially why I made a psychology thread.

TL:DR: Words and Actions

Excellent! I was hoping you'd say that, Anon. I figured you were.  :^)

Then I'll plan to try scaling/fitting my design mocks for hips & shoulders + actuators into it's volumes to see where I stand with your shell sculpt.

From >>355
A good lesson for the prototypers here, if you intend for your design to be replicated, make sure the third-party devices have multiple sellers, the more the better, so that if one goes down, your design isn't instantly impossible to build. Even then, you should have backup designs in case the exact model is not being sold anymore.
I learned that the hard way with a design in 2023, and with Galatea I have had it happen twice, once before Galatea v1 with the speaker, and recently with the Pleasure Unit, the latter because it had some other sellers, but not too many.
TL:DR, with third party devices in open source designs, make sure there are several sellers easily found, across multiple websites.

>>358
My words turned out to be prophetic, since these new Tariffs will raise the price of certain sources.
I myself am slightly modifying Galatea to have a "Tariff-proof" design.

I remember one time when I was around 8 years old, my father and I were driving down some country road in the middle of nowhere. At that point in my life, I'd developed this deep fondness for old and abandoned houses because of this one particular old house we'd pass eberry day on the way to school.

Anyways, my pop and I spotted this old house that was clearly abandoned. There was this chainlink fence all around it covered in overgrowth. This place must have been sitting for decades. I ask my dad if we can go explore it and he was typically against stuff like that, but this day he obliged me. 

The chainlink fence had a door sized gate that was open, so we just walked on in. A little after walking through the gate and looking at the house, we start hearing something moving fast that is clearly on the inside of the fence with us. This must've been around fall because you'd hear this thing crunching on leaves all around the backside of the house.

We caught a glimpse of it at one point and it habbened to be an adult doe deer! It must've wandered in out of curiousity just before we got there and got stuck.

Eventually, my dad and I hatched this plan where he wood run around and scare the deer into running out the open gate to free it. I'm not sure why we did this as the deer wood've probably figured it out on her own after we left, but we did it anyway! 

My dad runs around the backside of this dilapidated house and I hear the leaves crunching from his steps and then the leaves crunching from this giant galloping deer. I hear it so loudly around the corner of the house, I know it's coming fast in my direction, but I don't see it yet. It rounds the corner and comes running straight at me and I try to guide/scare it towards the open gate, but the deer panics, slips and lands on the ground right in front of me!

So there I was with my dad and this deer on the ground that was too petrified to stand back up and I get to walk right up to it. I touch it's fur, got to pet it and feel it's heart pounding and see how fast she's breathing. I'd never touched a deer before (or since) in my entire life, so this was amazing to me. My dad ended up grabbing this little film camera people used to carry around back then and we both took turns taking a picture with this big ass live deer on the ground. 

She woodn't get back up no matter what we did, so my dad ended up picking her up and carrying her outside the gate. After my dad set her down, we walked away and the deer got up and galloped off. The way it ran off was nothing like I'd ever seen a deer galloping before. It looked like it was so habby to be free almost like it couldn't believe it was still alive.

>>13185
Nice story anon,it remember me some encounters I had myself with wild animals (deers, hogs and a whole range of little critters). These moments are stuck in my memory and I cherish them.

Highly-based thread, OP!

So, one of the key factors to an enjoyable outing into the wilderness is great gear. My apologies if that reality doesn't fit into the indended theme of the thread?

I've bought many different types of gear from various manufacturers over the years. REI seems to be the single best dealer that I've personally worked with here in Burgerland.

I currently have what I consider to be literally the world's greatest cot, a comfy sleeping bag, and I'm currently looking into getting a standalone tent the so-called 'Half Dome 2', a revamp of their 45-year old product.

>So, one of the key factors to an enjoyable outing into the wilderness is great gear.
Sure, it can quickly make the difference between a pleasant moment in nature and a nightmarish experience, even if you have to be prepared to deal with Mother Nature's vagaries in all circumstances.
I don't have top tier gears because I don't do a lot of outdoor camping but as I plan eventually to do more, I will look for cool stuff.

One of the best automated cleaning devices is an air purifier. It can run all day long, and it takes dust and other particles out of the air. I have a large air purifier that I call "Galatea's little sister", because it has the same color scheme (black and white with blue lights), and it cleans for me.

Galatea has a mini air purifier on her base, and it's a good way to add cleaning abilities to your robowaifu.

Lequel ? Y'en a eu plusieurs je crois incarnés par des acteurs différents. J'aimais bien le gros.
Sinon j'aime bien Seb, il dégage vraiment quelque chose de sympathique je trouve.

Ses vidéos sont drôles, lui et Seb ont un talent certain pour produire du divertissement et parviennent habilement à éviter les écueils classiques de ce domaine comme le recours inlassable au grivois. Je salue également une discipline de veiller soigneusement à ce que leur production ne soit pas teintée par leurs convictions politiques, qu'ils n'ont par ailleurs pas de mal à exprimer sur les réseaux sociaux.

Il y a outre cela un léger malaise à continuer à regarder ces vidéos je trouve. Notre époque est secouée par des turbulences suffisamment fortes pour marquer la société et ébranler des socles sur lesquels reposent le processus humoristique justement. Un jour les hommes sont des femmes, le lendemain on n'a plus le droit de sortir, le jour d'après il faut crever de froid mais c'est pour la bonne cause et ça ne semble pas vouloir ralentir.
L'humour et les histoires se basent tous sur la représentation commune qu'on se fait du monde, et nous touchent à plus forte mesure en référençant les représentations issues d'expériences vécues par le plus grand nombre. Un Aztèque aurait du mal à saisir une blague sur une télécommande requiérant deux piles au lieu d'une. Un Aborigène ne comprendrait pas une blague sur le fait de monter par erreur une marche supplémentaire à la fin d'un escalator.
Ainsi, en ignorant les évènements à forte portée politique qui restructurent notre quotidien, tout humour qui se limite obstinément aux références prédatant le virage temporel de Clown World
