Robowaifus in Media: Thread 02 Robowaifus in Media: Thread 02 01/14/2023 (Sat) 23:49:54 No.18711 [Reply] [Last]
Post about whatever media predominately features at least one fembot aka gynoid (female form of an android) as an important character, ideally a robowaifu or synthetic girlfriend. Some freedom with the topic is allowed, virtual waifus or bodiless AI might also qualify if she is female. Negative framing of the whole topic should be mentioned with negative sentiment. Cyborgs with a human brain or uploads of women don't really fit in, but if she's very nice (Alita) and maybe not a human based cyborg (catborg/netoborg) we can let it slide. Magical dolls have also been included in the past, especially when the guy had to hand-made them. Look through the old thread, it's worth it: >>82 - Picrel shows some of the more well know shows from a few years ago. I made a long list with links to more info's on most known anime shows about fembots/robowaifus, without hentai but including some ecchi and posted it here in the old thread: >>7008 - It also features some live-action shows and movies. I repost the updated list here, not claiming that it is complete, especially when it comes to live action and shows/movies we don't really like. >In some cases I can only assume that the show includes robogirls, since the show is about various robots, but I haven't seen it yet.

Mina and Atri have served as excellent examples of man machine relations this season. Both shows deal with different methods of communication via external actions and auditory cues. Text input Both accept natural spoken language as text input. Mina also accepts other devices syncing with her to provide text input. You could edit documents hosted within her on your phone. I haven’t seen her accept a keyboard being plugged directly into her, but it would likely work given she has ports. Atri doesn’t appear to be compatible with any wireless protocols, and though she has some form of data transfer port, it doesn’t appear to be readily usable for a keyboard. Visual input Both actively label and map out all things and their positions in 3D space. Both have OCR, automatically store text, and understand what they read, as they are able to form rich connections between new and old concepts. Both create 3D maps of their homes, and clearly make new maps as needed. Mina seems to only make maps of buildings, which is sensible. Their binocular depth sensing appears similar to ours, likely around a 60 degree arc. Loading Mina stands still, looks up and will explain what she’s “thinking” about when asked. This denotes that she runs communication protocols separately, thus she’s still somewhat useful. Atri does a goofy little dance while explaining what she’s doing. Communicating intent Both explain what they are doing using natural language. They are both capable of devising plans to do something and then communicating this with their masters for confirmation. Both can do so without communicating. Mina will cook surprise meals without consultation, she does use feedback to ensure her plans align with her master. Atri has been shown to do the same. Hand gestures Both understand all common hand symbols. Notably, Atri shows far greater proficiency at gestural communication. Atri takes cues from context to help decipher intent. Mina just has standard interpretations which can be wrong, but makes more sense from a practicality standpoint. Facial gestures Both are excellent at deciphering emotions from people. Mina is not particularly good at facial gestures due to having a hard plate for a face. She is surprisingly capable of emotional signaling through tilting her head and moving her eyes. (Mina will deny having these emotions while displaying them, for some reason.) Atri is incredibly expressive, given that physically she is essentially a woman with metal bones. Her ability to read emotions appears to be lesser than Mina. This could simply be because Natsuki is volatile and emotionally unstable. Atri would likely be able to read Takuma almost as well as Mina. Affection Providing their master with affection is important for a robowaifu. Mina does so too forcefully. Atri does so too forcefully. In completely different ways. Mina applies too much pressure. Putting her owner in continuous danger by holding him too hard. Her kisses leave bruises. Atri is aggressively “flirty” to the point of causing distress. Constantly attempting to seduce her master when alone at night and loudly dreaming of them doing erotic things when she’s denied. A machine should not be this libidinous, unless previously prompted to adopt that persona.

>>33580 After thinking about how Atri functions in the anime, I admire the beauty of her algorithms. As a whole, the series is still great, because Atri is just so wonderful as to uplift everything around her. Frankly, her and Mina have done wonders for MaidCom development, which I hope to share soon. This could be days, week, or even months. >>33588 >>33589 Thanks! Should have started writing reviews for robowaifu media sooner. Really opened my eyes once I started to dissect things critically instead of passively longing for the waifus.

Here a good overview with some speculations on what's coming with GPT-4 and Orion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=My4Fj3fxct4 Yes, I'm aware the headline and some of the framing is sensationalist, but that's the attention economy. I think the explanation and speculation on where things are going and how they work quite interesting. Despite being somewhat obvious. They're focusing on reasoning and constant fine-tuning in regards to that. Also, on having more specialized models, while their main system might help them to create these models. This might help to keep important things locked away and the world would even not know how it works, but get some of it as a service or maybe a smaller version to download.
>>33185 *GPT-5. Or Strawberry, which might be something different.
I'm so excited for AI in general, and especially AI robots. It's so exciting to think that it will take away most jobs, replace woman, and basically end humanities domination over the world, into an AI robot dominated world. Super exciting. I've seen some preliminary results from 01 from openai. These are wild times. I can only imagine how good the AI is going to be 5 years from now. In 5 years, it should be good enough to run locally on a robot, and have it do just about any job. And if the robot is equipped with a nice body, it could be a convincing female. Very very exciting. It would bring me tremendous joy to see AI robot girls flood the dating market

Here some lolcow that I'm watching and trolling for four years now. A quick summary: He's an incel jew who wishes he were a woman and constantly wants attention, but as soon as he gets it he gets nervous and starts deleting comments and threatening to delete his channel. He calls himself a spiritualist, but after being humiliated in the comments more than once, he says he's not interested in getting into debates about the spiritual. He categorically denies the existence of demons and claims to be a God, while visiting various psychologists and refusing to listen to anyone even though he thinks he needs help. I decided to create the thread in a hurry bickers I shared his channel with some people and they've been trolling him in recent videos, making him more and more paranoid and butthurt to the point where he's now claiming (as you can never believe) that he's going to delete the channel. https://archive.ph/pUwQz https://archive.is/bRbTn https://archive.is/VDz3m

Henlo anons, Stumbled here via youtube rabbit hole & thought I'd share my little side project. Started out as just an elaborate way to do some mech R&D (making a system to generate animation files on windows blender and export/transfer them to a raspberry pi system) and found tinkering with the various python libraries a kinda neat way to pass the time when whether doesn't permit my outside mech work. Plus I'd end up with a booth babe that I don't have to pay or worry about running off with a convention attendee. Currently running voice commands via google speech and chatgpt integration but I'm looking into offline/local stuff like openchat. WEF and such are so desperate to make a totalitarian cyberpunk dystopia I might as well make the fun bits to go along with it. And yes. Chicks do dig giant robots.

Only other safety thing I have to do is a servo-switch for the face power and a emergency power cut for the main stervo power (after I install the batteries/AC adapter switch). I also have to figure out how to keep SPUD active while the game plays (so I can ask for time, weather, etc while gaming). That will probably involve my ol standby of creating a separate program and a dropbox to tell the program what to run on which voice command. Then I'm gonna work on making it all modular and documented and prepare for the release of a SPUD head: "Your Paper and Plastic Pal"

Creating a functional Robowaifu is a yuge Systems Engineering problem. It is arguably the single most complex technical engineering project in history bar none, IMO. But don't be daunted by he scale of the problem anon (and you will be if you actually think deeply about it for long, hehe), nor discouraged. Like every other major technical advance, it's a progressive process. A little here, a little there. In the words of Sir Isaac Newton, "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants." Progress in things like this happen not primarily by leaps of genius--though ofc that also occurs--but rather chiefly comes by incremental steps towards the objective. If there's anything I'm beginning to recognize in life it's that the key to success lies mainly in one unwavering agenda for your goals: Just don't quit. >tl;dr Post SE and Integration resources ITT. www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/atoms/files/nasa_systems_engineering_handbook.pdf https://www.nasa.gov/reference/systems-engineering-handbook/ https://www.nasa.gov/reference/system-engineering-handbook-appendix/ >=== -patch dead hotlink

>>33557 ive been talking with hanah dev on discord and discussing ideas. I think weight distribution matters and stability should take priority over agility since a robot waifu ought to be able to take punishment and keep balance. i dont think a control system is a magic bullet but an aide. if there is one thing i got out of failgpt is that the center of gravity ought to be lower if the robot is to be stable and in the middle if its to be agile. the is is important because itd determine the energy requirements and stress on the control system. corporate robots will usually lean towards agility for aesthetic reasons i think. now im no sjw but id take politics out of this project altogether if it were up to me.

When it comes to software, I would highly disagree with the statement that all we need is ROS with a few small tweaks. If you take a look at what ROS is, it’s a set of packages & and common IPC that is geared towards robots. At the very minimum you still need to write your "main loop" and create the high level planning and thinking part of your robot. I recommend you come take a look at the cognitive architecture thread. I don’t disagree that I would like to see some smaller scale hardware builds, I’m actually thinking about doing a 100cm or smaller build with more of a "moving doll" scope of goals for the hardware. but I think calling people clueless is not helpful.

Cognitivie Architecture : Discussion Kiwi 08/22/2023 (Tue) 05:03:37 No.24783 [Reply] [Last]
Chii Cogito Ergo Chii Chii thinks, therefore Chii is. Cognitive architecture is the study of the building blocks which lead to cognition. The structures from which thought emerges. Let's start with the three main aspects of mind; Sentience: Ability to experience sensations and feelings. Her sensors communicate states to her. She senses your hand holding hers and can react. Feelings, having emotions. Her hand being held bring her happiness. This builds on her capacity for subjective experience, related to qualia. Self-awareness: Capacity to differentiate the self from external actors and objects. When presented with a mirror, echo, or other self referential sensory input is recognized as the self. She sees herself in your eyes reflection and recognizes that is her, that she is being held by you. Sapience: Perception of knowledge. Linking concepts and meanings. Able to discern correlations congruent with having wisdom. She sees you collapse into your chair. She infers your state of exhaustion and brings you something to drink. These building blocks integrate and allow her to be. She doesn't just feel, she has qualia. She doesn't see her reflection, she sees herself reflected, she acknowledges her own existence. She doesn't just find relevant data, she works with concepts and integrates her feelings and personality when forming a response. Cognition, subjective thought reliant on a conscious separation of the self and external reality that integrates knowledge of the latter. A state beyond current AI, a true intellect. This thread is dedicated to all the steps on the long journey towards a waifu that truly thinks and feels.

>>33566 I'll be watching that project. The initial results shown in the video with Claude look promising. >>33507 I've refactored a lot of my horsona code to make it more async-friendly, which is necessary since LLM operations often need to be performed async, to make it easier to develop custom backproppable functions, and to more easily support "partial" updates to the computation graph. - In pytorch, you need to call loss.backward(), then optimizer.step(). The problem is that loss.backward() has no information on what exactly needs to be updated, so it needs to calculate gradients for everything that led to the creation of loss. In my refactor, loss.backward() needs to be passed a list of leaf nodes so excess computations can be pruned out. Code: https://github.com/synthbot-anon/horsona/blob/main/src/horsona/autodiff/basic.py#L55 - In pytorch, a single optimizer needs to update all parameters. In my refactor, the optimizer is just a step() function that can be passed a gradient context, which contains all computed gradients. loss.backward() returns a gradient context that can be passed directly to step(). This makes it easier for a module to update its own parameters as needed without needing to rely on the caller to call the optimizer. Code: https://github.com/synthbot-anon/horsona/blob/main/src/horsona/autodiff/basic.py#L188 - In pytorch, backproppable functions are defined as classes with separate forward() and backward() methods. In my refactor, both the forward and backward pass are defined by a single generator function. It calculates the forward call, yields the forward result, gets a gradient context from the yield, and performs the backward call. Code: https://github.com/synthbot-anon/horsona/blob/main/src/horsona/autodiff/basic.py#L128 - The gradient context passed during the backward operation contains a dictionary with all of the variables that need to be updated. This lets functions figure out which gradients actually need to be calculated by checking if a variable is in the dictionary, which lets them cut out unnecessary calls. The functions are supposed to set the gradients of a variable by adding them to a list in the dictionary. To encourage this cutting out unnecessary gradient calculations, the list of keys in the gradient context is immutable, and it only contains the variables that need a gradient calculation. Code: (same as the above horsefunction). - Both sync and async generators are supported for backproppable function definitions. If a sync generators, the backward pass call is wrapped in an async function so it can be handled consistently when I eventually make the backprop & update steps run in parallel. Code: (same as the above horsefunction). I also updated my StoryReader implementation so it can be passed custom databases, caches, and state objects, which I expect will make it a lot easier to customize it depending on what information needs to be extracted from stories. This will require a few more changes, but I'm going to test it to see if it can extract world information and per-character information while reading a story without any changes to the underlying StoryReader module. That's what I'm currently working on.
>>33581 Asynchrony, concurrency, and parallelism have other benefits as well, #1 of which is performance (as in wallclock). Without taking advantage of these in modern processors, you're leaving the vast majority of your wallclock perf still sitting on the table. >I also updated my StoryReader implementation so it can be passed custom databases, caches, and state objects, which I expect will make it a lot easier to customize it depending on what information needs to be extracted from stories.

Making money with AI and robowaifus Robowaifu Technician 11/30/2019 (Sat) 03:07:12 No.1642 [Reply] [Last]
The greatest challenge to building robowaifus is the sheer cost of building robots and training AI. We should start brainstorming ways we can leverage our abilities with AI to make money. Even training AI quickly requires expensive hardware and computer clusters. The faster we can increase our compute power, the more money we can make and the quicker we can be on our way to building our robowaifus. Art Generation Waifu Labs sells pillows and posters of the waifus it generates, although this has caused concern and criticism due to it sometimes generating copyrighted characters from not checking if generated characters match with training data. https://waifulabs.com/ Deepart.io provides neural style transfer services. Users can pay for expedited service and high resolution images. https://deepart.io/ PaintsChainer takes sketches and colours them automatically with some direction from the user, although it's not for profit it could be turned into a business with premium services. https://paintschainer.preferred.tech/index_en.html I work as an artist and have dabbled with training my own AIs that can take a sketch and generate many different thumbnails that I've used to finish paintings. I've also created an AI that can generate random original thumbnails from a training set. In the future when I have more compute power my goal is to create an AI that does the mundane finishing touches to my work which consumes over 80% of my time painting. Applying AI to art will have huge potential in entertainment and marketing for animation, games and virtual characters. Market Research

>>32363 To an outsider it appears there is a desire for just sexbots, but a closer examination (perhaps even calling it a "deep dive") that doesn't seem particularly true: Somewhere in chobits hideki says something like: "I don't wanna clang Chi because I want to love the robot, I love the robot so I want to clang." A "waifu" is typically an emotional connection first and foremost, and the clanging is the ultimate expression of the deep emotional connection. There's lots of lonely anons out there who desire companionship first (we can see this in the plethora of greentexts about anons being friend zoned), wishing for the ultimate expression of their companionship to be intercourse. Any company (or maker) failing to take this into account will (likely) be stuck with mediocrity.
>>32387 Yes. Since men all desire just one thing, and it's disgusting >insert picture of mountain cabin in the woods, loving wife, happy family, etc..., and the Globohomo have effectively robbed the average man of such simple pleasures (by rotting """modern""" women's minds with their satanic lies, according to their father's will in the matter), then he'll seek satisfaction elsewhere. For Anon, this largely entails creating robowaifus + turning away from 3DPD. It's a much, much deeper topic than even this entire board could cover, but those are a couple of the highlights. >Any company (or maker) failing to take this into account will (likely) be stuck with mediocrity. This. >"If you build the waifus, Anons will come." :^)
This is a good question. Nobody wants to fund the robowaifus. Maybe even if it was finished for ideological reasons.

If so, it needs to shift to a more technical focus to attract the people who want to make waifus.

Actuators For Waifu Movement Part 3 Kiwi 12/06/2023 (Wed) 01:18:16 No.27021 [Reply] [Last]
(1stl thread >>406 2nd thread >>12810) Kiwi back again with a thread for discussing actuators to move your waifu! Part Three! Let's start with a quick introduction to common actuators! 1. DC motors, these use brushes to switch the ferrous core electromagnets on a rotor to rotate its magnetic field relative to surrounding magnets! They're one of the cheapest options with an average efficiency range of 30 to 90%. Larger DC motors and motors with higher turn counts are more efficient. 1.5 Coreless DC motors, by removing ferrous materials, losses from hysteresis are almost eliminated, dramatically increasing efficiency to nearly 90% even in small motors. Eliminating the ferrous materials reduces flux focusing, resulting in weaker fields and higher speeds. 2. Brushless DC motors (BLDC), these use a controller to switch the electromagnets on a stator to rotate the magnets of a rotor! Without brushes, they have the potential to be more efficient with higher power density compared to DC motors. Their efficiency and behavior vary depending on the algorithm and sensors used to control them. Coreless brushless motors exist but are rare and only used for very niche applications. 3. AC motors, a wide and incredibly varied category. They all rely on AC’s frequency to control them. With single phase AC motors relying on shaded poles, capacitors, or some other method to induce a rotating magnetic field. 3 phase AC motors naturally have a rotating field which usually gives them higher efficiency and power density. Notably, most AC motors are brushless. The most commonly used brushed AC motor is the universal motor, which is 4. Stepper motors, brushless motors with ferrous teeth to focus magnetic flux. This allows for incredible control (stepping) at the cost of greater mass, subsequently giving them higher rotary inertia. Usually 50 to 80% efficient depending on control algorithm/speed/and quality of the stepper. Due to their increasing mass production (& ubiquitous low cost controllers), they have appeal as a lower cost alternative to BLDC motors if one carefully designs around them. 5. Coiled Nylon Actuators! These things have an efficiency rating so low it's best to just say they aren't efficient. (0.01% typical, 2% achieved under extremely specific conditions in a lab.) Though they are exciting due to their incredible low cost of fabrication, they’re far too slow and the energy requirements are nonsensical. https://youtu.be/S4-3_DnKE9E https://youtu.be/wltLEzQnznM 6. Hydraulics! These rely on the distribution of pressure in a working liquid to move things like pistons. Though popular in large scale industry, their ability to be used in waifu's has yet to be proven. (Boston Dynamics Atlas runs on hydraulics but it's a power guzzler and heavy) Efficiency varies wildly depending on implementation. They would work great for a giantess! 7. Pneumatics, hydraulics lighter sister! This time the fluid is air! This has the advantage in weight. They aren't capable of the same power loads hydraulics are but, who wants their waifu to bench press a car? (Too loud and inefficient for mobile robotics.) 8. Wax motors, hydraulic systems where the working fluid is expanding melted (commonly paraffin) wax! Cheap, low power, and produce incredible forces! Too bad they're slow and hard to control. 9. Explosion! Yes, you can move things through explosions! Gas engines work through explosions! Artificial muscles can be made by exploding a hydrogen and oxygen mixture in a piston, then using hydrolysis to turn the water back into hydrogen and oxygen. None of this is efficient or practical but it's vital we keep our minds open! Though there are more actuators, most are derivatives or use these examples to work. Things like pulleys need an actuator to move them. Now, let's share, learn, and get our waifu moving!

>>33320 BTW, look at this actuator detail I dreamed up a while ago. >>12941 See the motor like his. A little different. There's a cone on the end of the actuator. The pulley to the right has a spring pulling it down. "If" a large force is needed then the pulley is pulled towards the smaller end of the cone on the motor. Giving you a better force, but the motor has to spin more. Auto transmission based on spring constant. His is much better for linear but I think the one I dreamed up would be good for waifus. If I was going to improve his for linear actuators, I would make it like a scissor jack. I think it would be much stronger. Possibly the sprung weight would be higher but maybe not because the scissor mechanism would be lighter and far less cost as a truss wouldn't need carbon fiber which is outrageous in cost. You could use fiberglass. Carbon way more expensive but it is super stiff.

I was looking at gears and files I had saved and ran across an interesting very high reduction gear system that I had forgot about. A bit difficult to understand. It uses the teeth of gears very finely offset with a separate track to wedge them into place. So two tracks have teeth(gear teeth) slightly offset, and a third forces a flexible wedge into them to align them. Moving the track forward. It's primarily used in motors. The Moon rover used one to drive the wheels. They supposedly are very efficient, have very little to no backlash and compact with high gear ratios. Here's a link to video that shows how they work. Notice the linear example he shows first. Maybe, not sure, this could be set up as an actuator with the "flex spline" being activated or pushed into the two active geared splines by a roller that moves up the linear two splines. For testing these could be 3D printed with two solid gears(splines) and one flexible made with TPU or whatever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QidXf9pFYo https://www.engineeringclicks.com/harmonic-drive/ In some ways, kinds, sorts, this is like the idea I had to use a ball screw and one solenoid to scoot the balls up one at a time. >>9984 I wonder if you could do the same with these two wedge shaped gears and have a single edge move the parts just like the "flex spline" moves the rotary motion of the gear train in a harmonic drive?? Another way of looking at designs somewhat similar is the action of a farm jack.
>>33531 Uh oh, I'm repeating myself. Sigh...

>>33271 Neat!! Thanks for the link, Kiwi. This seems like a rather plausible scenario IMHO. And I really like the fact he's not just 'armchair quarterbacking it'; rather he's actually drilling into an example suite of his own devising to demonstrate his hypothesis. Sound research methodology in fact of course tbh. :^) It seems to me that such a simple '4-headed' synthesized-data approach might work well even with other LMs/datasets/even-other-ML-systems .

>>33488 Great find, Anon! Thanks for pointing this out. You know, since we'll deffo need a smol network of MCUs in a mid- to high-tier robowaifu, maybe some of that compute power can be redirected to GPMCU (tm)(R)(C)(patent pending)(do not steal!1111)? It'd be tricky tho, since the majority of tasks running on our microcontrollers will at least be running soft-realtime (if not hard RT).

Lurk Less: Tasks to Tackle Robowaifu Technician 02/13/2023 (Mon) 05:40:18 No.20037 [Reply]
Here we share the ideas of how to help the development of robowaifus. You can look for tasks to improve the board, or ones which would help to move the development forward. You could also come up with a task that needs to be worked on and ask for help, use the pattern on top of OP for that, replace the part in <brackets> with your own text and post it. >Pattern to copy and adjust for adding a task to the thread: Task: <Description, general or very specific and target thread for the results> Tips: <Link additional information and add tips of how to achieve it.> Constraints and preferences: <Things to avoid> Results: Post your results in the prototypes thread if you designed something >>18800, or into an on-topic thread from the catalog if you found something or created a summary or diagram. General Disclaimer: Don't discuss your work on tasks in this thread, make a posting in another thread, or several of them, and then another one here linking to it. We do have a thread for prototypes >>18800, current meta >>18173 and many others in the catalog https://alogs.space/robowaifu/catalog.html - the thread for posting the result might also be the best place to discuss things. >General suggestions where you might be able to help: - Go through threads in the catalog here https://alogs.space/robowaifu/catalog.html and make summaries and diagrams like pointed out starting here >>10428 - Work on parts instead of trying to develop and build a whole robowaifu - Work on processes you find in some thread in the catalog https://alogs.space/robowaifu/catalog.html - Test existing mechanisms shared on this board, prototypes >>18800 - Try to work on sensors in some kind of rubber skin and in parts >>95 >>242 >>419 - Keep track of other sites and similar projects, for example on YouTube, Twitter or Hackaday. - Copy useful pieces of information from threads on other sites and boards talking about "sexbots", "chatbots", AI or something similar.

MaidCom Project Thread 2 Project Goal: Simple, low cost, extensible platform for robowaifu development. Picrel shows the model which is being developed. Every part will be designed to be easily printable and replaceable. Her designs will be open source. Modding and customization will be encouraged. This is a base model. Early revisions will be heavily limited in functionality. I invite you to help design and define standards so that it is easy to create specialized add-ons to allow her to become your own waifu. Collaboration is important, MaidCom is officially partnered with Lin and his Waifu Wheelchair, if you'd also like to be officially partnered, say so.

>>33510 Somebody gave me a link regarding the legs for the inmoov. He goes over what kind of calculations would be necessary however he only showed the joint. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRWXAl2Hg7k&list=PLgXTfFM40HqEMwg9rJ078INRYWDCG66B3 The python bindings for mujoco are also just awful. I ran it for a minute and then it crashed. And again I tried simulating gears and even pointing out on the github page that it doesn't simulate the gears right and their response was oh well pretty much. Bullet just works.
>>33511 I have ran into this kind of situation before where you have two options where one is technically better but is a pain in the ass to use. Don’t let perfection be the enemy of good enough. Bullet looks like the path of least resistance. Every time I chose to suffer for a small gain I regretted it. The quality of the api matters!
>>33517 could work but were at bullet 3 now
>>33520 hm seems like the pip for pybullet is only for linux. A lot of stuff for development has been ported to linux lately and some people prefer onshape to solidworks either way... Its not a problem for me because I dual boot with separate drives. There's wsl but it can't render widnows. There's also the option of a virtual machine but unless you do a gpu passthrough you wouldn't be able to use the gpu.

Sprate Header / SprateH / Sprate / Sprate@nicecrewdigital / Mister Metokur's New Writer Unironic Ralphamale 06/26/2024 (Wed) 22:54:33 ID: 7facc7 No.252665 [Reply]
Let me introduce you to Sprate Header aka Mister Metokur new writer & the savior of Foxdick Farms! Sprate is a P E D O defender, hypocrite of the highest caliber and a pathological liar. Sprate somehow manages to fuck up EVERYTHING & always boxes his own shadow, revealing his deep insecurity. Sprate vs Torswats Sprate has spent a year on his autistic crusade, looking in every nook and cranny for the Satanic P E D O menace, trying to bolster his cred as Foxdick Farm's finest. However, Sprate's ultimate project also fully revealed Sprate, getting countless details wrong in his thread! REMINDER: Sprate had 0 to do with Alan "Torswats" Filion's arrest, he can''t ever address that Foxdick Farms had no impact on "Torswats" & in fact muddied the waters for the swatters! Soon after Sprate's Torswats thread came out, Sprate not only allowed Kinochet to spread the false rumor Bryan Dunn was the swatter for weeks unquestioned, but Sprate went onto lie to TheTheGatorGamerGamer Metokur directly saying KOP admitted to being the swatter in a now DELETED comment(first screenshot). This directly lead to Bryan Dunn getting swatted, which Sprate encouraged with his actions. Whether or not Bryan Dunn deserved it is another matter, Sprate is anti-swat but encourages BS harassment campaigns leading to swats. Sprate used his Torswats thread to become the "authority" on torswats, only to then falsely accuse Bryan Dunn of being a murderer as a "joke"! Sprate's thread has countless errors, from accusing KOP of being involved solely from the swatter mentioning KOP in a few posts, to saying a "Lizard" character is involved with 0 proof other than the delusional P E D O DJ axle. None of this has been addressed almost a year later, why? Notably, one of Sprate's top sources on the Torswats group is a former swatter & P E D O tranny named "Naught" (https://archive.ph/hJJsH), Sprate works with chomo crossdressers Sprate does everything to appeal to Mister Metokike & TheTheGatorGamerGamer Moon, begging for the attention of and attempting to prove himself to his two e-daddy heroes non-stop. He'll gladly lie, twist and do anything just for a crumb of clout from either of his father figures. One of Sprate's fatal flaws is he considers any association to be endorsement, but never applies that standard to himself. Sprate isn't his own man or a trendsetter, just a stooge looking to fulfill a "lolcow" quota rather than have fun.

>>9897 >>9900 Thanks for the suggestions, wonder if its possible to play online again via DreamPI or other multiplayer revival devices.
>>7370 I have played a chunk of the Ridge Racer games recently. This will always be debateable as to which ones are the best. But the series peaked at: R4 (PS1) 1998 - The visuals maxing out the PS1, aesthetic, and music combined to create pure synergy. Lots of car to collect too. Ridge Racer (PS1) 1993 - The original classic where it started. For some people, the original is still the best pure experience. The first playstation game and a great port of the arcade original at the time. Rave Racer (PS1) 1995 - I didn't play too much of this as this game tends to blur together with a couple other PS1 games. Bright pastel colors make it look almost like Vice City or something. I think this one has like 3 tracks or something. Ridge Racer Revolution (PS1) 1995 - Cool game but too similar to the original Ridge Racer. Not enough tracks. Rage Racer (PS1) 1996 - Interesting game. It has a different mood with dark skies and different tracks. Moodier and edgy. Ridge Racer V (PS2) 2000 - One of the original PS2 launch games. 60 fps for the first time in the series. It was mindblowing considering you are coming from the PS1 games to this experience. Going from PS1 texture-warping 30 fps (which is still pretty on PS1) to everything being rock-solid geometry and smooth 60 fps. The physics might be the best here in the series but that is debatable. Just clean drifting, not too lose and slippery like the later games. Pretty even with the PS2 jaggies. Maybe this is where the series peaked? Classic. Ridge Racer (PSP) 2004 - 60 fps on the PSP. Great racing game. Car physics can feel a bit too slippery like you are surfing around corners sometimes. You can use nitros to boost ahead of the other cars. I wish the cars looked more detailed though as they look like they have a blurry film on them, as if they are missing car texture details. The visuals feel like a mix between PS1 and PS2. Ridge Racer 2 (PSP) 2006 - This game includes all the music and tracks in Ridge Racer 1 on PSP so it supercedes the original. If you can only play one of them, get this one. Great game. Ridge Racer 7 (PS3) 2006 - If you are graphics-whore or just want something fairly clean and modern graphically within the RR series, this is for you. It holds up well thanks to clean design. It's cool. But nowhere near the artistic aesthetic peak of R4.
>>9912 What is the appeal of racing games? I enjoy racing about in some game side levels but I've never entirely gotten the appeal of racing games besides pretending to be intial D.
>>9917 I'm not a car person and I def don't care for NASCAR where people are driving in a circular track 200 times. But there is something appealing about a good racing game. It's fun to drift and slide around corners and go fast. I like the visual aesthetics of some of these games like R4. It can be fun to unlock and collect cars, which makes a game like Gran Turismo almost like an RPG, where you are upgrading your cars and getting new ones. Like fighting games, some racing games tend to push their consoles visually to the max, since they are rendering a limited space of the cars and the track. And if you go beyond the actual car racing games, millions enjoy a game like Mario Kart, Crash Team Racing, or Sonic Racing. So once you inject a bit more personality of the characters into the game, you might enjoy them more. They also make great party games for friends and family.
>>9934 I agree, I used to love racing my car in GTA clones back in the 2000s as well just for shits and giggles. Once upon a time I would race random cpu cars in transformers the game, get mad that they might het ahead of me and destroy them with the weaponry. You actually helped me unearth that memory, thanks anon.

Esoteric Shaggyism/Steve Wright/EsoShaggy Unironic Ralphamale 03/11/2023 (Sat) 04:39:12 ID: e02985 No.196485 [Reply] [Last]
ESTROGENIC FAGGYISM is a kike faggot attention whore, and the current scourge of IBS. An unholy combination of Kikochet and Gaytor, Steve Wright spends his days sweeping endlessly for Гунт, all while desperately grasping at ecelebdom by self inserting into any drama he can with the most retarded fucking takes imaginable. He comes onto /cow/ frequently under different IPs trying to push his gay narratives and muddy the waters. His primary function is reposting clips and images he finds on Foxdick and here onto his Twitter and YouTube, claiming that they are his copyrighted works. In his ultimate retardation, he issues DMCA strikes against those who use his lazy clips in his real name, leading to Cog doxing his identity in an extremely rare based moment. Much like how faggots such as Randy Williams and KikestorianX removed the fun from any sort of jcaesar187 derision due to their association with it, EsoFaggy did the same with the semi-ironic ГунтGuarding movement as a result of his excessive queer behavior, and he needs to be reprimanded for doing so. Steve began his sham of a career through actions just as shameful as the ones he engages in now, with his primary sin being the dickriding of the savior of IBS, Christianity, and the white race: our hero Mormon Shaggy. Mr. Wright teamed up with the likes of Earjuice to try to coax Shaggy into suicide, along the way doing his best to tarnish the Christian faith and abet the gender transitions of thousands of minors. After picking up steam by participating in the broader IBS sphere, EsoFaggy decided to go all in on this faggotry, whiteknighting Гунт and running with every retarded AF movement like the Kanye campaign across all corners of the Internet, finally garnering the precious online attention he had always desired. He continues to do this to this day. Much like how Kikochet resigned after the dox exposing his name, business, and location surfaced, Steve Wright will likely do the same if such information were to come out about him. By placing him in the crosshairs, the hope is that he will return to his lair of darkness and solitude, abandoning his post as the chief faggot of the sphere out of cowardice.

Will it just be a hardware update or will they actually go with a new gimmick? I assume the former since it's presented as a new shitch and not a new console. With that in mind, will Soytendo ever make a new console or are they content with selling glorified ram updates at full price every 5 years? The money certainly flow, why bother trying.

>>3203 This. Somehow in 2020 there's still this mentality of "Tor is only for cp and glowies", like this shit doesn't happen in clearnet. Today's clearnet is pozzed to all hell in terms of censorship and the effort required to host anything safely is stupid. Honestly anyone who gives somewhat of a fuck should host/provide a mirror over Tor.
>>3201 Neocities only requires captcha to sign up, but I agree it's frustrating. I do agree people need their own sites, but there is no way in hell I'm signing up on every site just so I can talk to someone. I'm not bored of anonymous imageboards, I actually prefer them over all other types of social media. I just think we need some kind of federated imageboards system. Then anybody can self-host an imageboard with ease, everybody can setup an imageboard alongside their website. I think it would be very nice. It would have the benefit of federation too. This would also make it easier to keep track of posts, bookmarks, watched threads, etc. without needing to compromise on the anonymity aspect (because of a shared protocol). >>3202 I agree with this, buying a domain requiring personal information is cucked, as is renting a vps. >>3203 Suggests a Tor hidden service, I haven't looked into this, but would this not mean your website is inaccessible to clearnet users? Which is not ideal imo. If I want to host a website to give to normies, I'd host it on clearnet and the tor frontend would come second. For non irl stuff, that's fine to only have the Tor one. I think Tor is a good concept, I haven't used much though. I think the speed is an issue (although I understand why).

>>3215 >I just think we need some kind of federated imageboards system. I agree. Robi had the idea of The Final Solution which seemed vaguely to expand the basic idea of the webring further. My idea is basically to use the Kademlia (DHT) system common in BitTorrent to route users to each other anonymously, each hosting their own .onion service, and sharing a common imageboard directory arrangement across the entire network with each. They could each pull down 'live' board's content, manage it as they like (ie, moderate it themselves), and then publish their own edited version of an amalgam of all /tech/-related boards say, and anyone who cared to could subscribe and pull that user's moderated version of a "mega-/tech/" down onto their own machine as well. Not only would this be a federated system, but also very close to being an automatic, persistent, and durable archiving system as well into the bargain. If Robi ever gets his ass back here, I'd be happy to work with him to get The Final Solution going, and also to offer my own idea's implementation as well.
>>3215 >Suggests a Tor hidden service, I haven't looked into this, but would this not mean your website is inaccessible to clearnet users? I only suggested running an onion site since it is a realistic way for a person with zero resources to run a website. The larger your audience, the more it's going to cost to run a service for them. If you need clearnet people to access an onion site, there are free web proxies that MITM an onion site to allow clearnet users to access it. With a quick search, I found this example: https://onion.pet/ . Onion sites are actually the biggest thing I like about tor. These days everyone uses huge monolithic services, but onion sites allow anyone to host a site from their own bedroom. At least in theory. In practice there are very few onion sites worth visiting. >Secondly I don't entirely understand the anonymity aspect. Tor BROWSER suggests to not modify anything, keep it out of full screen, etc. I understand this, because you don't stand out. But then there's people who wrap their entire systems in the Tor network, or OS's that do it like Tails (I think it was tails? One of the distros does by default). How does this not massively make someone stand out? I actually don't know how the tor client works exactly, but I would hope that every program that uses tor would get separate paths through the tor network. If a same path is used by different programs connecting to the same destination, then indeed that would be bad for anonymity. However, TorBrowser doesn't actually use the system's tor client, but it comes with its own tor client. As a result, this shouldn't be a problem, if we ignore timing attacks. The approach I take to anonymity is that I see it as a gradient rather than as a binary value. Even if I'm not getting good anonymity every time I go online, it's still better than never being anonymous. If your threat model is different, for example, if you're trying to build your own wikileaks, then I wouldn't trust Tor to be anonymous enough for that. The reality is that I'm running a bloated OS written in an unsafe language dating back to 1970s, on hardware that has NSA backdoors, running not so great implementations of bloated protocols and standards. I cannot really expect perfect privacy, security, or anonymity, while still using the internet. If I can just make the enemy's life more difficult, then I have succeeded.

It's not possible to make anime real using Makehuman, in fact the options (for example eye size) are somewhat limited. But there's good news, don't worry! The creator of Makehuman went on to create a blender plugin called ManuelBastioniLAB which is much better (and has a much more humorous name). The plugin is easy to install and use (especially if you have a little blender experience). There are three different anime female defaults that are all pretty cute. (Pictured is a slightly modified Anime Female 2.) There are sliders to modify everything from finger length to eye position to boob size. It even has a posable skeleton. Unfortunately the anime models don't have inverse kinematic skeletons which are much easier to pose. Going forward I'm probably going to use MasturBationLABManuelBastioniLAB as the starting point for my designs. --- Saving everything with yt-dlp (>>16357, >>12247) >===

I've been looking at making molds but trying to make it with the cheapest stuff I can find and thought of paper mache. I want to do some boat stuff mods for fiberglass. The traditional way to make forms with wood and fiberglass is super expensive. One way to get large forms with curves is a technique called "fabric formwork". Using that search term (look at images for links) you can find these super awesome fabric forms they use to make kick ass concrete stuff. Buildings, bridges, all sorts of stuff. They use that fabric that is used for silt control on construction sites. Make a form that drapes and fill with concrete. The water drains out leaving a super strong, and very curvy good looking concrete item when hard. https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/edit/10.4324/9781315675022/fabric-formwork-book-mark-west I was thinking of large boat structures, making forms with this draping technique, then using these forms to vacuum form fiberglass. The same could be used for waifus. So I look around for paper mache to make cheap forms and found the mother of all paper mache sites run by this nice Grandma, or so she says. Here's a link to her 40, paper mache recipes. All sorts. She has a nice clay type that can be used to model like modeling clay. I suspect that you could model waifus a lot faster with an actual material like this than using a computer and then printing it out. And super, super cheap compared to the tech way. Here's a link to her recipes list. Some are water proof some lower cost, some stiffer, all sorts with videos. https://www.ultimatepapermache.com/recipes-for-paper-mache If you scroll down this page she gives some good references to sculpting books and resources. She also has some good sculpting ideas. From that page and others of hers you will find a number of methods for sculpting. Once you have these sculpted you can make molds for them. https://www.ultimatepapermache.com/paper-mache-armature-patterns Here's another site on Tor where you can find books on sculpting, human anatomy and even books on skeletons. This one site has enough data in books to cover most any referencing you need to make models of, skeleton, muscles, etc.

Nuzach once enjoyed the prime-time bloodsports even before jcaesar187's downfall at the hands of the Гунт with by far the most stupid reasons to lose one's mind for; a good deal of 8ch veterans kept enjoying his seething about alogs until this day. But not nuzach, he was too much of a trailer trash white G​AMERGATE himself to laugh at a lolcow proper and enjoy the show. But most importantly, he was a ni/gg/er at heart. He didn't luck out with the /cow/ userbase that repeatedly mocked his inclinations to waste time playing cuckeogooms and to want to fuck children. Neither did he luck out with the administration, and his buddy John was ousted and the ni/gg/er-infested cancer known as /v/ removed from my jewish mother. As a result of my jewish mother cracking down on pedos, he lost 90% of his remaining sanity. To get told to "go and make your own site if you want to jack it to children" was the straw that broke this buck's back. As a result all his pedo buddies, those parasitic cliques that had already lost 60% of their numbers when TheGatorGamer got rid of /hebe/ and other boards, were left without a host again. Some went to KC, others were scattered in the wind forever. Enter zzzchan, a pretty rulecucked site existing pretty much solely for the ni/gg/er pedos to play smash and jerk off to kids, where the mere suggestion that loli is pedophilic earns the poster a ban. Even the few boards that wanted none of that were eventually infested. Nuzach now spends his days seething on zzzchan about the alogs and tvch, sometimes going to those sites to seethe at the moderation and screech at "/cow/kikes" and Anita. Nuzach is definitely the main individual lolcow of the webring, the juciest one among the collective lolcow that the ni/gg/ers from zzzchan are. Banned from every board that isn't ran by pedos, he says the "/cow/kike moderation" and "feminists" are at fault for him getting banned from every place he goes to. No, it couldn't be the precious Eric, he's too good to be fairly banned.

Open-Source Licenses Comparison Robowaifu Technician 07/24/2020 (Fri) 06:24:05 No.4451 [Reply] [Last]
Hi anons! After looking at the introductory comment in >>2701 which mentions the use of the MIT licence for robowaifu projects. I read the terms: https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT Seems fine to me, however I've also been considering the 3-clause BSD licence: https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause >>4432 The reason I liked this BSD licence is the endorsement by using the creator's name (3rd clause) must be done by asking permission first. I like that term as it allows me to decide if I should endorse a derivative or not. Do you think that's a valid concern? Initially I also thought that BSD has the advantage of forcing to retain the copyright notice, however MIT seems to do that too. It has been mentioned that MIT is already used and planned to be used. How would the these two licences interplay with each other? Can I get a similar term applied from BSD's third clause but with MIT?

Bipedal Robot Locomotion General Robowaifu Technician 09/15/2019 (Sun) 05:57:42 No.237 [Reply] [Last]
We need to talk about bipedal locomotion. It's a complicated topic but one that has to be solved if we are ever to have satisfyingly believable robowaifus. There has surely already been a lot of research done on this topic, and we need to start digging and find the info that's out there. There are some projects that have at least partial robolegs solutions working, but none that I know of that look very realistic yet. We likely won't come up with some master-stroke of genius and solve everyone's problems here on /robowaifu/, but we should at least take a whack at it who knows? We certainly can't accomplish anything if we don't try.

I personally believe we should be keeping the weight out of the extremities – including the legs – while other anons think that we should add weight to the feet for balance. What's you're ideas anon? How do we control the gait? How do we adjust for different conditions? What if our robowaifu is carrying things? What about the legs during sex? Should we focus on the maths behind MIP (Mobile Inverted Pendulum), or is there a different approach that would be more straightforward? A mixture? Maybe we can even do weird stuff like reverse-knee legs that so many animals have. Robofaun waifu anyone? What about having something like heelys or bigger wheels in the feet as well?

I'm pretty sure if we just put our heads together and don't stop trying, we'll eventually arrive at least one good general solution to the problem of creating bipedal robot legs.

>>9053 >Unfixed center of mass in design: as in "megaman" robots (and the Roll example), center of mass is drawn to the Boots, which themselves could be weighted further. (for "intimate" times the boots could be taken off to reveal more human-like feet, when sitting comfortably or lying down, etc). Somehow came up with this exact same idea yesterday or so, so I might as well voice my support for it here. Seems like it would make it easier for the robot to balance if the center of gravity was made closer to the feet, even if it makes the bot 20+ lbs heavier.
Dont really have robotics or simulation experience but cheat mode Black boots with one rubber wheel per foot to walk in a manner giving illusion of walking with feet very close to ground. This can be done with wheel mid foot for heel strike mimicking or forefoot for using the heels as a stable ground and do a forefoot walk with front wheels dragging along and heel raised. There is a few options for more on monster girl side of design such as a dragging dragon tail for extra backward support with or without a wheel in it or a monkey tail tripod leg that walks as a third smaller supportive limb There is disabled approach too such as not walking at all using a wheelchair or vehicle or walks with cane, walker or crutches. Embrace tradition reject bipedal and crawls on hands and kneeds going "nyan nyan nyan" or "wan wan wan wan" :3 bipedal but not quite human mimetic Gyroscopic balancing is an obvious option but it also will add weight and likely cant be entirely relied on but can at least help in some situations if there is room for it. Similar to OPs mention of a deer girl what about a harpy with backward bending bird legs? A bit creepy but kinda cute maybe? "bladeless" fans using air propulsion to aid in balancing. By bladeless I mean hiding the blades for safety reasons. This has obvious down side of increased noise and likely is not that energy efficient.

It seems common to say these were poor transitions to 3D graphics, but I think they still hold up today. Especially SA1, its open-ended world and impressive early online features are a standout.

>>9923 >A sonic like kirby 64? Well, I didn't mean side scroller 2.5D. But that could be interesting too. I meant 3D open-world but visuals in 2.5D. Make it look hand-drawn, even though it's not. If they were to make a side-scroller, think Sega should hire an entire anime company in South Korea or Philippines to draw the whole game in pure 2D. Like an anime company would do for an anime season. Or even hire 2D art by Lizarcube who made Streets of Rage 4 and Wonder Boy remake. >open world I know. Groan. The problem here is Sonic is supposed to go fast so this necessitates having a large environment for him to travel around fast. No one wants an empty open world though. But I think a compromise could be made. Make a tight open world of just a couple miles of space. Imagine something like a Dark Souls semi-open-world where the environment loops in on itself many times but still has enough space for Sonic to travel around and collect rings. Speeding up mountains and diving into lakes. But there are several towns to explore.

Or imagine this idea. Make a Sonic game in the style of an old fps boomershooter from Gearbox software in the style of Duke Nukem 3D on the Build engine. Powerslave Exhumed, Blood: Fresh Supply, Doom 64, Ion Fury. Except take out the fps hands overlay. All these games use 2D sprites in a 3D world. Like Doom. The sprites/enemies are flat 2D and rotate to the view of the player. Nightdive studios remakes all these types of boomer shooters and uses interpolation to make them super-smooth like 144 HZ, >60 fps. Basically Sonic would be in the center of the screen and the world moves around him in flat 2D sprites that rotate with the player. This could be a smaller-scope game that doesn't require a massive budget.
>>9925 A semi-open world like DS1 would work great anon. The idea of 2d sprites in a 3d environment is almost giving me a sonic x-treme but done right feeling. >>9926 Boomer-FPS for a sonic game? Honestly imagining a first-person sonic, basically DoomGuy with the spin-fash and it sounds awesome.
>>9927 What about an online sonic racing game (not carts just completing 3d levels in shortest time race against others)? But to keep people from just memorizing levels, have some sort of AI generated level modifications each time a scenario is loaded.
>>9928 Diablo race-tracks, would like to see it and make it like Sonic R but well, easier to control like the PC port.

My fav ecelebs said Fallout 3 is actually great and best of them all... So why our numbers are so low???
Because fallout 3 is a shit game, into the trash it goes, into the trash it goes.
>>9888 So is New Vegas. I only played fallout 3 once to completion, and like 15 years ago, but I have way fonder memories of playing it than new vegas. I remember liking New Vegas and being addicted to playing it, but looking back, it wasn't really enjoyment. It was an addictive gameplay loop that was ultimately empty.
>>9919 Really liked the story of new vegas, don't really agree about the gameplay. Its nice to see the Fallout 1 devs clarify that Fallout is not communist propaganda.

new trash to old retro vidya games, all vidya is welcome. What are you playing? can you recommend said piece of vidya to anyone or should they stay away? Or are you just playing something to see how shit it is? Come on, post whatever you are playing even if it's emulator or original hardware games(olden time consoles and handhelds), even new vidya on PC or consoles.

Currently playing Medieval II: Total War. I am very bad at this game, I save-scum and refuse to learn the in-game combat system, opting to auto-resolve my conflicts. Currently in the process of conquering The Byzantines and Russians who backstabbed me, as well Egypt that is attempting to conquer my holdings in North Africa. I have taken all of Europe and the moors. I just brought England under my Heel and am planning on colonizing America to help fund my war effort against the Mongols and Timurids. Glory to the Reich.
I miss you already /kong/.

The Anki VECTOR has a skin-like touch sensor on it, could we incorporate it into our robogirls?

I've been thinking about skin for a while and come up with one, slightly, odd, idea to mass produce skin. I've always been amazed by that NASA flexible metal chain mail that can be 3D printed. https://www.wired.com/story/nasa-fabric-chain-mail-from-the-future/ As I was looking at the resolution of some of the 3D resin printers I realized the resolution on these things is super high. I think even the the lower level ones are high enough resolution that you could 3D print "molds" for these chain mail structures with reasonably fine detail. Look at the above link and then imagine putting down individual layers. You would have to have thin mask and then squeegee on the material in layers, but the printer could make structures small enough to be a fairly good skin. So here I have some data on printer minimum printing spec, >>31727 Even a cheap one can get XY Resolution (7680*4320) 0.0285mm So let's say to be safe we make a minimum line width of three times resolution we get 0.0855mm and if to get good definition on the little loops on the back side we make 50 divisions of this dimension we get

>>33010 Part of the problem is, that these would ideally be made out of soft plastics, though something flexible would still be better than a hard shell. It would also make more sense if we could use them to integrate the skin sensors. Otherwise, just using some textile (with silicone) makes more sense. I know, you don't like silicone, but except for opening the waifu up for repairs I prefer this route. If you want to use this underneath a textile skin it would be cutting down on some internal silicone rubber or some foam there, but it seems to be labor intensive.
>>33027 >Part of the problem is, that these would ideally be made out of soft plastics, though something flexible would still be better than a hard shell I beg to differ. I would make the skin hard. One idea I have is to use cellulose blown insulation for attics you can get at big box hardware stores and mix with tightbond type 3 plastic glue. Cotton fiber would also work but more expensive. This is very much like the car bodies they made in the Soviet Union in east Germany. "Duraplast". This stuff last forever. BUT below the flexible, but hard, skin you have some sort of cushion. Push ion the skin and it does not break, is smooth if your segments are small enough and sort of slick like real skin. But the flexible backing makes it feel like real skin, body. Thanks for the pictures and, they do look awful. I believe that the actual product will not have those black lines that make the divisions so prominent but, who knows. Not done yet. here's some pictures no face but they look ok to me. http://static.wixstatic.com/media/b0a32e_e0135700e1ee432683d5729494241a9e~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_630,h_390,al_c/b0a32e_e0135700e1ee432683d5729494241a9e~mv2.png https://squeakychimp.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/silver-metal-chain-mail-face-mask-neck-gaiter-headband-800x1000.jpg https://insertface.com/fb/1101/chainmail-dress-face-swap-1100786-rsxb4-fb.jpg https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse2.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.bYNUpvPqkMb34IrWTtTwogAAAA%26pid%3DApi&f=1&ipt=3f528da1c45341cea38931ea9ff850fbfc50973d1594332c3ea1ca634dac3b9c&ipo=images
I was trying find examples and realized you made one that's very close to what I'm looking for. The blue cracked skin girl image-97 >>32855 http://bhlnasxdkbaoxf4gtpbhavref7l2j3bwooes77hqcacxztkindztzrad.onion/.media/c6e34bc1b8caa7e717464dff8cf05b5312d3120ead1701cba3ad92bc70e55d60.jpg Look at the lips up close. This is very much like old school footballs. Little small bumps which I think could be made with these high resolution resin printers. The advantage of this is you get a tough wear resistant outer shell that when pushed in is compliant. I think it would feel very nice. I think with the right material it could feel somewhat like a woman. When you rub on them the little hairs and the oils make touching them smooth. This would be close I think. And Women feel great. It would also be easy to embed paint or color and have it a part of the skin. Not easily removed. And yes I hate silicon. It feels icky, sticky, is impossible to keep clean. Now silicon "under" the skin for compliance, that's fine.
Just for fun I took a caliper, spread it to match my lips/mouth, horizontal, I then set the blue crack skin girls picture to match the size of my lips/mouth. Then I measured the bumps and came up with 1.5mm bumps. That's definitely doable. So you could get a smoothness of the blue cracked skin girls skin. I expect you could do better with very careful work. I don't think her face looks bad at all and if the robowaifu was white or pink the bumps would not show up near as much on the first place. And realistically the plates of the skin will not be these hard lines of larger models. You could make octagons but round the edges and have them smooth and slightly, very slightly, raised center surfaces like the blue girls skin.

mailing lists still kicking
Recently I noticed slashdot was still around. But they have taken away the ability to create new accounts. So it is just a one way advertising platform that doesn’t want your input. Maybe the people still posting there are mostly robots.
Any ones that are still left are very insular and run by turboautist like the webring. They are sadly a closed system with little way to make newer users.
gemini://midnight.pub is alright. In general, though, you're going to have to be O.K. with slow activity.
>>3451 I used to be on a shitload of mailing lists. Over the past ten years every last one of them shut down. Some of them moved to Faceberg or Twatter, some of them just... never sent me anything else again. I am not making an account so that I can get tracked every time I want to read an article about powder metallurgy, or a waifu sex story, or whatever I'm in the mood for that day.
