A few things collected from the internet this week

I wish I had the strength of will to fact-check this myself


This, is a fucking awesome walrus

The Perry Bible Fellowship


School lunches from around the world!


I believe the story for this was a guy asked his girlfriend to draw what happens during her period

ROBOTS BEHAVING LIKE PEOPLES!

Well if not people, then spastic horse creature-things. This is really going to piss off GP at about 0:35 with his dysfunctionally wired empathy circuit, but I think it's worth the humiliation to prove what robots can do these days (make sure you at least watch the bit at 1:25! Slick!). I've seen videos from these Boston Dynamics guys before, and at this rate of progress I'm expecting full on helper monkey bots (Helbots?) within a years time. Should we throw caution to the wind and ignore all those apocalyptic scifi stories of robot revolutions against their creators? Of course we should!




Actually, how many are there? Off the top of my head: BSG, Dune (the early years), Terminator, Matrix, 2001 (not really robots, I guess)... I, Robot the movie doesn't count because it's piss, and the book is nothing like that.
