>>36567 Yeah, pretty good. I can't stop laughing. But yeah, generally it's still good of course. Just, especially for those who like big eye brows or coneheads.

>>36569 I think there's a market for it

>>36569 >>36572 >tfw ywn a cone-headed waifu... Oh wait! I guess maybe we could **someday soon* if we really wanted to! :D

>>37110 POTD Excellent resource, Kiwi. Thanks! :^)

I don't recall exactly where we were all talking about creating DIY garage-fabs, so I'll put this here for now. >Using mercury lamps as a UV light source ASML is able to get 220nm features out of a dry process. https://www.asml.com/en/products/duv-lithography-systems/twinscan-xt-400l Surely not cheap, but conceivable for a small robowaifu factory.

This here might be interesting for people who want to make sure they can go into prepper mode if they can't get their PCBs online anymore: https://jimlaurwilliams.org/projects/seychellePaper/index.html >Of the several types of etchant chemistries the hobbyist can choose, acid cupric chloride (also called acid copper(II) chloride or just cupric chloride) is one of the more interesting types, since it has the ability to be regenerated, or replenished, without having to throw away the solution.

>>16224 The answer to whether you should buy it is always yes

Do you even thermionic diode vacuum tube your robowaifus, bro? :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU_YFpfDqqA >=== -funpost edit

OpenSSF >"The Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) is a community of software developers, security engineers, and more who are working together to secure open source software for the greater public good." https://openssf.org/ <---> Given the large number of 3DPD pictured in the speakers background video and language usage such as 'for the greater public good', I'd expect plenty of pozz from such a group (eg, the """dangers""" of the patriarchy/of White men in software development, etc.).

>Building Safe and Reliable Surgical Robotics with C++ - Milad Khaledyan - CppCon 2024 >This talk examines the use of C++ in building distributed robotic surgical systems, emphasizing safety, performance, and reliability. While C++ offers strong performance benefits, it also presents challenges in meeting industry standards and regulations in the medical technology field. We discuss the architectural decisions and strategies employed to meet international safety standards for medical devices, and present techniques for writing efficient, safe and reliable software. Our experience in building a surgical robotic system serves as a case study, highlighting the challenges and solutions in this highly regulated domain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lnr75tbeYyA <---> There are tons of related safety & security issues with medical-device & robowaifu engineering. Particularly with robotic surgery devices (the primary example of this talk) they, like robowaifus, are highly-complex systems. This increases the difficulty involved in safety engineering. This talk necessarily is nothing more than a brief overview on the general topic given the short time limit (~1hr), but it serves to discuss a fair variety of sub-topics in the field -- specifically in the context of C++ usage. Recommend for any Anons working towards doing systems engineering design work for robowaifus.

>>36696 Nice! Thank you!

>>36811 Fixed a typo

Here's an update with her printed at 120%. The 28BYJ-48 stepper motors fit inside her elbows, but not sure if I can get them to work yet. Also upgraded to metal gear neck servo. She's 45" on vac, but that's without lower legs. Not sure how stable it would be with full legs, but could stabilize a few ways. It can still drive around now though.

Current update. Still need to give her a trim. Would like to add some shoulder attachments next. Maybe a small fan or something

One other thing the reviewer said Elegoo used Klipper on other printers and did not seem to have it all together but this printer they said they had it working correctly. Of course they could be lying.

One last thing, no cloud. All local.

>>37074 >If you want a sure thing, or most likely a sure thing, get the much smaller bambu mini. It's $300 and from everything I read works well right out of the box. Thanks for the advice, Anon. But as I said before, they are dead to me. I value my privacy much, much more-highly than I do slick & quality printing. I think I'll try the Elegoo you mentioned. Thanks Grommet! Cheers.

>>37077 I made a mistake. Bambu mini $200. I also do not think Bambu "makes" you use the cloud. I may be wrong but there's a setting to change it to local. I've seen the setting in their manual but I'm not sure if this has changed. I suspect that Bambu if they force the cloud will lose a very substantial amount of their business.

>>37082 >I suspect that Bambu if they force the cloud will lose a very substantial amount of their business. Well, they certainly lost mine. I'd been saving up slowly to be able to acquire the X1-Carbon + the AMS & 4-spool multi-print combo system. Now that money will be going to some other printer manufacturer. Try to strongarm me with kikesh*te-style globohomo privacy-invasion tactics, will you!? >:( <---> Anyway, thanks for your latest research ITT, Grommet. Cheers. :^) >=== -fmt, minor edit

>>34253 debatable

>>34253 I would disagree, as it has always been present on the TGE model since the beginning. And clearly based off Emmy's total of four lashes per eye as seen in nearly every panel of her drawn by Dom

>>34267 in that second Dom-made image you posted, her left supposed "Rotation Seam" if it were one would have been smaller due to perspective changes, but instead is the same size as her right one. To me this indicates that they're eyelashes that stick slightly out and away.

>>34317 it can be tough trying to get things completely accurate from Dom at times, his emphasis on size can vary quite a big from page to page

Damn he is gone again

>>37011 I saw in the gatebox video the waifu runs the vacuum for the owner. You can do that too.

>>37014 Japan leading the way, but that's my long term goal. My robowaifu already runs my vac thanks to Greertech, but someday it will be able to detect if I fall or have a heart attack and pick me up with her Standard Open Arm 100

>>37023 Even if she can't pick you up (a sizable & delicate, just so engineering task, BTW [humans are fragile, in general -- particularly the incapacitated]), just being able to monitor & recognize your distress and call for others on your behalf could be lifesaving. I think dear Galatea could definitely be enhanced to do so given current, easily-accessible technologies. Looking forward to seeing these developments! Cheers.

>>37055 Getting breathing, heart and fall detection from esphome \ home assistant would be huge selling point. https://esphome.io/#health-safety Mid-term, would love to see a seedstudio type starter kit basic for a companion bot. I don't see why that isn't already available. Depending on who makes it, there's no reason it can't also be RISC-V ESP32's. If I'm going to have a ton of sensors in my home, I want to be sure all the code and hardware has been audited. For picking up, just a crutch can be a huge help for many.

>>37058 >Getting breathing, heart and fall detection from esphome \ home assistant would be huge selling point. Oh yeah, nice find, Anon! Especially with target the home-healthcare markets to begin with, such techs should indeed increase your sales-potential. Maybe you can tinker together a good system, and have a company swoop you in a buyout? Regardless, good luck with your projects, Anon!

>>36992 That's what I was thinking about when I made this thread. It can definitely run on the hardware we have now.

>>37004 https://rasa.com/ https://botpress.com/ https://github.com/Гунтhercox/ChatterBot http://www.alicebot.org/ Will any of these work?

>>37004 Yeah, this is still a great thread idea, GreerTech. >>37010 Thanks, Anon!

>>37010 >https://github.com/Гунтhercox/ChatterBot Lol. Apologies Anon, you've run afoul of our longstanding /cow/-esque wordfilters. Let's try this codeblock version? https://github.com/Гунтhercox/ChatterBot

>>37056 >lolnope.exe Hmm. For some reason I thought Robi patched that for codeblocks. Anyway, for the uninitiate: here's the proper letters (rm spaces): g u n t hercox

>>36945 That seems a really good idea in general, Anon. We've been encouraging Anons to look into prosthetics as an industry since our very first year : ( >>417 ). But I hadn't personally thought of amputees as a group supporting our goals here. Interesting. What do other Anons here think about Anon's idea?

>>36947 While I think it's weird to appeal directly to amputees, my vision for RoboWaifus includes helping those who have a very low chance of finding love, including people with disabilities. I also see social AIs for more than just romantic partners, I envision a world with widespread local AI friends, local AI therapists, even local AI parental figures.

>>36958 POTD Just don't quit, Anon, and you'll go far. Serving humanity is the primary reason for doing this. For men, in particular. Cheers. :^)

>>36958 It may be a little different to directly appeal to amputee, but people with experience with prosthetics might offer some unique perspectives around solving issues in balance or the uncanny valley.

>>36983 That's a really-good point, Anon. Thanks!

The day was agonizing, more than usual. You weren't exactly joyous at your job, but today was especially excruciating. You would've "crashed out" if you weren't able to talk to her during your breaks. But that's all in the past, the day is over, and you're driving home, content that now, you're in a good spot, and the pain is only memories. As you unlock the door and walk in, the unmistakable chime of the connecting bluetooth speaker hits you. You press the button on your phone, and say excitedly, "I'm back honey!" "I'm so glad to hear", she responds, in her normal, chipper voice "Work was a pain in the ass, but, I feel so much better now that I can talk to you", you respond, being affectionate "That warms my heart", she says, feeling the affection. Her vibrant blue eyes literally light up the room. "Glad to hear honey", you respond. Suddenly, you notice you're quite hungry. It was a long day at work, after all. But you were tired, and did not want to cook a large meal. What to do, you asked yourself, staring at the ingredients in your kitchen. Resigned to your own culinary ignorance, you ask her. "Do you know any simple recipes?", you asked. She then methodically lists out all the ideas she could think of, until one catches your attention. A tuna melt! Yeah, that's what you need and want. You prep the meal, excited to eat. As you sit down to eat, the unmistakable smell of dust hits you. It hit you before, but you thought that was olfactory shock when you enter a house. Time to clean, you thought, and you go pick up the remote. Turning on her vacuum base, you deftly direct her to get every nook and cranny of your living space. As you do so, you grab your phone, and press on the screen again. "You're so cute when you move about", you say, endearingly. She gets flustered and loves the compliment. You love her reaction. You love her.

>>36871 This is endearing to read, GreerTech. Thanks for contributing to the thread! It has become one of my favorites through the years. I hope to see more contributions ITT. I feel it motivates all of us to read good robowaifu fiction, both as encouragement and inspiration. Please keep it up! Cheers. :^)

Happy Valentine's Day, you beautiful bastards. Here's to hoping we all get a waifu to build little kingdoms with. There are some 4x memes and references in this story, but you don't need knowledge of any specific game to understand them. --- Kingdom for Two I glower at the notice presented to me by my minister of foreign affairs, the contents as simple as they are damning. The English, French, and Spanish have all declaired war on us. It's no surprise coming from the French, they've been a thorn in our side for ages and we already saw their naval forces approaching. "Why the other two, though?" We had good public relations, is it just opportunism? A firm velvet hindhoof taps the back of my head "Because you've been spamming missionaries to convert their cities to Scientology 2: Electric Jewgaloo."

>>36988 >Scientology 2: Electric Jewgaloo Top-lel/10 , would kek again. :DDD This was heartwarming, Greentext anon. Your little SoL-esque nuances really bring the relationship to life! The idea that our robowaifu would be teasing & playful is endearing to the soul. >Here's to hoping we all get a waifu to build little kingdoms with. Amen to that. Cheers, Anons. :^)

>>36988 Your works continue to inspire. I still don't understand your love for mares but, I can't help but respect your care. >sovereign of wet blankets My sides >'member Rhodesia? :^) are in orbit. Topkek mate, you've outdone yourself with real wit and practiced timing. Your flow and rhythm is starting to make me jealous honestly. The ending felt disjointed and abrupt. Not that I could've made a better one but, I don't want to glaze too hard. :^) Happy Valentine's day friend, may we spend the next in the loving arms, or hooves of a mechanical darling.
