Seth Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 "... when there are robots that have also emotions, personality, consciousness. Physical devices can easily mimic the first two characteristics. But consciousness? That's a profound stretch. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help.

Guest Wolfeymole Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I don't think Dougie needs help Janice but rather he was making a humorous comment on a possible future happening. Quote

With this Technology,my Robot Wife could stay 16 forever,and wouldn't make the remark,you just made about me. Read my user name real sloooow Janice.Don't shoot the messenger.DSTM. I didn't make up the story,just giving a link to the newspaper article and put a humourous slant to it.

allheart55 Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 This is the Off Topic, Civilised Discussion, World News etc isn't it? I am female and not at offended. It's only an article. Boys will always be boys...:) Quote
Guest Wolfeymole Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 As far as I am concerned there was no overt sexist inclination or overtones in DSTM's post whatsoever Janice. As I have already stated feel free to report the post but please bear in mind that we shall take into account the fact that you have personally insulted DSTM. Two female members of this forum have made comments to intone that the post does not affect them in any way. Quote
help4me Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 And here I thought it was an article related to new technological advancement and possible robotics of the future...both of which would be appropriate for a tech forum's off topic section. I had no idea I was supposed to be offended. Why Doug... you scoundrel you!!! ;) (note the wink ....said in jest my dear friend :) ) Quote Intel Pentium Dual Core 2.6 GHz6GB RAM500 GB HDDIntel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 with 128MB dedicated memory Computer acting up?

Guest Wolfeymole Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 One may also wish to consider the aspect of a male robot, perhaps viagra sales would plummet. :confused: Quote

JEBWrench Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 You'll also note that nowhere in the article is any mention actually made of the gender. I would assume models would be available as male, female, and likely hermaphroditic. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help.
