Frankly, I feel that I'm displaying admirable restraint only posting about robot dick as often as I do.

usually prefer to make my robots less humanoid but I had a vision and had to follow through

my robot gf is refusing to get the li-ion batteries in her chassis checked out and it's so frustrating "it's fine it's fine breast tenderness and rapid growth within the first 3 months is normal when you start hrt" girl i don't want to play the worst game of minesweeper with your body

God, I do this kind of thing all the time - "It's not a blown actuator, my drivers just need an update." "Sure, I'm lagging, but that happens from time to time - it'll go away eventually."

For me, at least, that kind of attitude is basically an attempt to self-soothe. Diagnostics and repairs are expensive, after all - not to mention time-consuming and potentially painful! - but convincing yourself that Everything's Fine is quick, easy, and free. Of course, if it does turn out to be a problem, you're only setting yourself up for more pain and expense in the long run...

Anyway, my advice is to ask her how she would feel if you were ignoring a potentially-serious health issue - in all likelihood, she'll realize that she'd be terribly frightened on your behalf, and realize that it's unfair of her to put you in that same position.

If it turns out she wouldn't be frightened by that, of course, then clearly her Three Laws weights are too low, which is an easy fix. She might end up dealing with a bit of hypochondria after the rebalancing, but usually that goes away after a week or two, so I wouldn't get too hung up on getting the perfect CER or anything.

Extremely normal and not emotional about v1s feelings about this (and also v1/v2s feelings in general)

We're celebrating Autonomous Vehicle Day with a sticker giveaway!⁠ 🤖

Autonomous robots are essential to the future of marine science, engineering, and exploration. To efficiently explore our rapidly changing ocean, scientists need nimble research tools to map and monitor these vital ecosystems and help us visualize deep-sea animals and environments. Autonomous technology allows MBARI researchers to maintain a persistent presence in the ocean and collect data that informs effective management.⁠ ⁠ If you love robots as much as we do, you'll want to enter today's giveaway. We're gifting 10 lucky followers an official MBARI LRAUV sticker! To enter, head to our Instagram account and follow us there. Good luck, deep-sea squad!

Israelis might not have the wisdom of King Solomon, but some of their inventions, innovations, and achievements are extremely clever. Israeli electronic sensors can restore the sense of touch to damaged nerves.  Doctors are 3D-printing prosthetics for amputees in Israeli hospitals. An Israeli smart catheter is the first device specifically designed to clear blocked veins. And Israeli long-distance tele-medicine is treating and caring for patients across Israel and in Africa. Smart sensors make Israeli beehives 50% more productive.  An Israeli innovation improves the health of cows and the quality of their milk. Israeli paint prevents diseases. The roads are less polluted thanks to Israeli electric mopeds, and the free world is safer thanks to Israeli hi-tech defense systems.  Plus much more. The photo is from a recent concert in Netanya by a popular band that very cleverly weaved together Israeli, Jewish and American folk music. Their name is appropriately, "The Solomon Brothers".
