Upon going into town like a normie recently *gasp* I have uncovered an unexpected turn in the robit 's place in society. In December 2025 a prototype animatronic from the Spirit Halloween factory was leaked. The character? Freddy Spazzbear -I mean- Fazzbear. Surprised by the popularity surrounding their upcoming product, Spirit Halloween was quick to capitalize on the popularity. They took down the online product page and stated the only way to order one was to ask in-store (can't call stores as their call center requires a valid product number so customers have to physically go there) and only sent limited stock for store openings with no restocks. While the animatronic sells for $500 retail, scalpers make up to 600% profit. The kerfuffle surrounding this indicates that normies are hungy for an famous animatronic characters. So much so that Spirit Halloween canceled the release of their M3gan animatronic so she doesn't overshadow Freddy. This bodes well for future robowaifu development.

>>45281 Intredasting. Thanks for the information, Mechnomancer. I hadn't heard of low-cost animatronics suppliers before. >This bodes well for future robowaifu development. Agreed. We here have predicted an absolutely ginormous pent-up demand for robowaifus waiting to be unleashed like a floodgate. Cheers, Anon. :)

>>45281 Imagine if they sold Roxanne or Chica. The resulting thirst would drain the oceans. I decided to check their website, and while they don't sell anyone else from FNaF, they do sell a life-size Emily animatronic. Looking at her design, she seems to be far less articulated (and cheaper as a result, at $300), but it's still nice to see that the option exists (presuming you have a thing for the macabre).

>>45283 >le corpse bride Give her a new coat of paint/different Haloween costume then you got yourself a robowaifu lol

I was going to say, I know Chobitsu doesn't want us talking about weapons here, but does that also extend to body armor? I remember seeing some pro-gun control senator or congresscritter also trying to ban body armor and thinking there was no way the public would buy that because you can't use body armor to kill somebody. But I wanted to be sure before I just up and started talking about it.

>>45286 I'll make an interim ruling on this in case Chobitsu needs time to consider things, or is simply busy. This may be subject to change, but you'll be given leeway since this is grey territory. I'll say it's fine so long as said discussion sticks solely to armor, and doesn't tangent off into forbidden topics like weaponry. Protection against anything is paramount to chassis design, so eliminating armor entirely just seems counterintuitive. So talking about armor, armor classes, standards, and materials should all be fine. But keep from talking about weaponry, and if you're using images, stay away from anything that features weapons or glorifies war (i.e. advertisements from defense contractors). Technical diagrams and specification sheets are fine, as are images that simply feature the armor material itself.

>>45286 >>45287 Speaking of "controversial" things, @HoloAnon, I saw this the other day, so I guess your vision of a kickboxing robowaifu is now possible https://youtube.com/shorts/Nhmvv7AJzVU This is one of the coolest things I have seen

>>45286 In terms of robotics, here's my analysis For kinetic impacts/slashing/impalements, hard plastic is pretty good. Something 1.4 mm thick should be good enough. If I had money to burn and a print farm, I would absolutely make a GreerTech Iron Man suit. For the-tool-that-shall-not-be-named, unless it's limited to 22lr - handheld 9mm, it's better to have removable external plates. You could have both, primary protection, and removable secondary protection. Ofc, I left out the weight problem, IRL, that would a huge problem. There are also kinetic forces, which is something to consider. In humans, concussions happen because the kinetic energy causes the brain to knock around. For robowaifus, basic foam should be enough to help with impacts (as well as possibly being used to quell internal noise). All of this is important if we want robowaifus to last decades. Unlike humans, robowaifus can't repair themselves (yet). For example, what if you and your robowaifu get in a car crash. Or she falls down the stairs. Or even accidentally hit her own thumb, Looney Tunes style.

>>45289 Consider this, assuming you get a robowaifu at 20, and live to 78. She will have to last 58 years. For context, that would be a like a machine from 1968 lasting continuously until now

Lmao at the weekly header

>>45287 A noble sentiment, but any sufficiently advanced robot waifu could pick up a gun with finger articulation. If their muscles are strong enough, they can crush your windpipe with as little as 30lbs of force applied (in)correctly. Particularly with armor, the bot will have the weight and will need the necessary musculature to manipulate itself and do locomotion. The very act of making any bot more resilient automatically makes it more deadly. A 747 doesn't care that it wasn't built for war; if you walk in front of its engine while it's spinning up, you'll be pureed. Much the same way, a farm tractor will roll over and crush you if you're dumb enough to get in front of it while it's in gear. If this hypothetical bot has enough agency and physical autonomy, it can use guns, knives, vehicles, bombs, and whatever it can reasonably access to commit violence. Slight digression I know, but I don't want anyone to labor under the illusion that humanoid robots are any more inherently safe than they are unsafe.

>>45292 protoman did nothing wrong (tm)

>>45292 Good point. Real safety, not lame and gay "safety", but true OSHA safety, is a concern for fully capable articulated humanoid robots. Once we have capable humanoid robots, we will need to have safety systems. Things like emergency shutoff, shutdown verbal commands, etc. You don't want Star Trek safety standards >>44125

>>45287 Thanks, Greentext anon! Absolutely. You covered the points, and I probably couldn't have put it better, Anon. >Protection against anything is paramount to chassis design This. Just please don't go off on /k/ -tier tangents talking about ballistics &tc. (even if the material's documentation is initially worded that way [since thats their target audience]). Just lets keep the discussion focused around robotics, mechanics, and science-y for such topics. TIA. --- (So, this post goes over that line, for example : >>45289 , but only by a little... mostly it's focused on our concerns here properly.)

>>45290 Good way to put things, GreerTech. >>45291 Just having a bit of a go with the neighbors! :D >>45292 >Slight digression I know Please don't digress in that particular way, Anon. We're all well-aware you're correct about the physics involved, and robo-autonomy is questionable at best at this time, but let's keep it away from violence topics. This isn't 'Terminatorz-R-Us'. There are metric shitetons of other venues out there catering to just such as that... why should we contribute to that mess here? I like your other example warnings, however. Confer : >>45294 This, instead. Practical considerations of engineering & safety is what I'm talking about. There's still plenty of room for hardening, cover, concealment, avoidance milcon topics discussion within such contexts. >vid Jej. :D <---> Cheers, Lads. :)

>>45296 I didn't mean to endorse robot violence, of course. My main point is that to support meaningful protection (armored plates, Kevlar-style skin, hardened/reinforced joints), you will inherently create something dangerous, even if that's not your intent. The musculature and articulation required to support that additional protection make the bot dangerous whether you mean for it to or not. Much the same way the robot masters were originally built for benevolent civil service and later corrupted by Dr.Wily, bad actors in real life could corrupt and manipulate humanoid robots for any number of terroristic acts.

>>45297 All granted. Let's keep our own discussions on such matters elevated, just as you have done in your post here. >>45297 >and later corrupted by Dr.Wily Kikes... FTFY. Ahh, now you have put your finger square on the basic point of the exercise here, Lad. GG. :D

>>45295 No matter what, any discussion of armor for you-know-what is hampered by the fact that armor strong enough for that would be incredibly heavy. The low range armor I mentioned would have to be 0.2-0.25 in./5-6.35 mm thick. We already are having enough on our plate designing lightweight humanoid robots, let alone ones with steel. However, I think something capable of blocking melee attacks is very much doable. >/k/ -tier tangents Well I'm not sucking off NATO, the US Military, or wanting to ethnically cleanse Russia, so I'm safe there >Practical considerations of engineering & safety is what I'm talking about. There's still plenty of room for hardening, cover, concealment, avoidance milcon topics discussion within such contexts. That's the thing about military and war. It's not some esoteric thing, it is merely advanced survival. And whatever you think about war and the military, the fact is the procedures and operations; -Have been tested through centuries of brutal and merciless trial-and-error -Is designed to be able to be followed by a 1.9 GPA teenager -Made to be able to be done with lowest-bidder equipment -Made to be done in the most extreme situations >>45297 TBF, even a strong plastic robot can be dangerous. The dancing robot video is funny, but I've seen Unitrees stuck in kickboxing loops. The answer has already been given by industry, failsafes and emergency shutoffs. I would say use a verbal command, and if that doesn't work (because it's like a holodeck episode), emergency shutoff Of course, this discussion is all academic. We are not at that level yet, only Mechnomancer is close enough to that level to seriously consider it

Here's a good non-tactical and very relevant example of why emergency shutdowns are necessary for articulated robowaifus with a moderate amount of strength https://youtu.be/OYryogNE8Ys

Since I've reiterated my position(s) regarding the general question on the table rn, I'd suggest we move further discussions around any practical considerations for it into the safety & security thread : ( >>10000 ), where they will be squarely on-topic.

>>45299 For sure. Armor plating would act as an increase in mass, merely adding a force multiplier to the kinetic damage a bot could produce. Never mind agility and full-body locomotion. >We are not at that level yet, For sure, "robot masters" aren't a viable threat in the current year, but with the expansion of drone warfare in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, as well as the present development of humanoid robots elsewhere, we are quickly approaching a future where such threats need serious consideration. Enter the T-Doll question. "Where does the waifu begin and the terminator end?" There's a body pillow joke in there somewhere, but I'm too lazy to suss it out.

>>45303 Not to downplay our own efforts, but we are far from that >drone warfare Drone warfare meta is just cheap quadcopters going "banzai!"

Having seperate robots/appliances for seperate tasks is actually a really good idea

>>45312 Yeah that basic idea is a good one in general. Let's keep it on the up and up, fellas.

>>45288 This is pretty cool, but it's controlled remotely by an operator instead of being fully autonomous. >>45294 inb4 this guy is a boss in the new Mega Man game >>45299 >No matter what, any discussion of armor for you-know-what is hampered by the fact that armor strong enough for that would be incredibly heavy. I don't think that's necessarily true, or that you even need that much steel to get armor capable of blocking even some rifle rounds, but discussing this in detail would break the no-Terminators prohibition. But the simple act of designing durable robot plating to deal with ordinary risks could easily result in something that can block at least pistol rounds, so it could be interpreted as milcon discussion by some.

>>45288 News from a corporation funded by the chinese government kek

Move this to the other thread or get rid of it if y'all want. I'm just an occasional passer by who checks to see what's going on every few months anyway. >>45319 >But the simple act of designing durable robot plating to deal with ordinary risks could easily result in something that can block at least pistol rounds I believe this very unlikely to be the case. Reusable steel targets, as an example, are quite hard, typically 500-550 BHN, and specialty hardened plates are not something you would use for structure or any kind of normal cladding. Other materials used to stop projectiles, generally speaking ceramics, often do so by dissipating energy through fragmenting into tiny shards, and that would simply be an undesirable quality altogether in a protective layer. The only other material I believe might be worth mentioning would be UHMWPE, but even then it's only stopping weak projectiles when woven sheets of it are compressed and fused into blocks specifically made for the propose. I suppose very thick pieces of polycarbonate, etc. would stop stuff too, but that's probably irrelevant. I can't see any of those things having a practical use case.

Why do some of you Anons keep pushing me on this topic? I've made the point plain enough IMHO, but I'll restate it here again: * Don't engage any further in militaria on /robowaifu/ ! I apologize for allowing such here in the past. That was my mistake alone, so no blame to any'non for thinking its OK here. And obviously, (practically) all the other robo(waifu) -adjacent sites/forums out there are each rushing headlong into a giant killfest with their robots. But why should we here act that way, contributing to all that evil mess? You'll have plenty of opportunities for such elsewhere. After all this time, I should have expected you each to understand that's exactly what the murderous & demonic kikes want you to do... use the goyim to do all their wretched, satanic works for them. And BTW spend your own sheqels to do it of course, goy! What's next...go long on Lockheeb stocks? <---> The BO of /mecha/ was kind enough to allow our general thread there to remain up. Any such milcon discussions would be both on-topic and welcome there, I think. So please don't use our own board here for it -- move it over to /mecha/ , Anons. TIA. --- ** Protip: Murder was the #1 cause of death during Noah's day before the flood wiped them all out (and good-riddance).

Bro, it's you and 6 incels philosophizing about how you want to fuck washing machines. What's the point of pretending like any of this is serious and there needs to be strict rules of engagement? The washing machine is already in a relationship with the dryer, it's never going to love you back

>>45351 As before, have any thing to contribute here fren?

>>45350 I have to accept some of the blame for this. I should have known what talking about body armor could lead to. I just have an autistic need for clarification of edge cases. >And obviously, (practically) all the other robo(waifu) -adjacent sites/forums out there are each rushing headlong into a giant killfest with their robots. I didn't even know there were any other robowaifu boards, but I guess that's not surprising due to how garbo modern women are. We can't be the only group pursuing a different solution to this problem. >Murder was the #1 cause of death during Noah's day before the flood wiped them all out TBH I don't think we're far from the downfall of the current political order. I'm amazed that it's lasted this long. Also I was going to say, I just realized you remind me of Terry Davis sometimes.

>>45350 >I'll manage moderation as I see fit here, GreerTech. No one's denying that. I'm just saying it's annoying and reddit-esque, not to mention interrupting conversation. >He can do as he sees fit. So he'll probably leave, as well as others. We're trying to recruit others, and sperging out every other day isn't helping >Then simply follow our 2 3 rules. Simple as. Well, rules can be changed And this has gone beyond "not promoting weaponry", you're censoring cartoon shotguns. Anon's post (>>45326) was just elaborating on a point I myself brought up, that having armor strong enough to resist you-know-what would be impractical. So it wasn't "promoting weaponry", but I guess it violates Reddit's code of conduct. Like I said, >Why do some of you Anons keep pushing me on this topic? should be a clue that you're being way too heavy handed with this shit. >But honestly, I don't personally feel that way about this board in general. It's the accumulated inputs and wisdom of every Anon who's ever made a lasting contribution here that makes this board the unique place it is. I'm simply it's current caretaker. Exactly. I just wish you applied that more. Multiple anons have voiced displeasure and concern with this rule. >>45354 >I have to accept some of the blame for this. I should have known what talking about body armor could lead to. I just have an autistic need for clarification of edge cases. In a sensible forum, we would be able to actually talk about robowaifu construction. Maybe it's part of some evil jew plot to make our robowaifus more durable. The horror! >I didn't even know there were any other robowaifu boards AFAIK, there are no other robowaifu boards, but I would like to know if there are others. ----- It didn't used to be like this. We had the aforementioned "image board freedom".

How am I supposed to bring people on here? "Yeah, this board is great, you just have to tiptoe around the moderator and censor like you're on reddit, otherwise he'll sperg out and lock threads"

>>45357 More importantly, why would you want to be here at all? The fact that no one has looked at your "inventions" and had the integrity to tell you it's all hilarious tweaker garbage is honestly fucked up. You shouldn't want to participate in a community where the ultimate goal is to create a Roomba with a FleshLight

>>45358 >why would you want to be here at all? I should ask you the same thing. You're posting here too.

>>45358 Uh, people have looked at my inventions, fuck outta here with that dollar store gaslighting >tweaker garbage If a tweaker is able to produce something just like Galatea, be my guest! The more robowaifus, the merrier! Haven't seen it though. That's the funny thing, people say Galatea is primitive, but never release something better publicly and in a finished state like I have

>>45360 It's not gaslighting, I genuinely think everything you've made is garbage. Your "robot" is a mannequin with a tablet taped to its face that sits on a Roomba. You've desperately needed someone to tell you how laughably bad everything you've made really is and I'm happy to do that while Robi is away with his dick stuck in the vacuum. You weirdos need to stop trying to reinvent the wheel when it comes to sexmaids. They're already a thing, you just toss the hooker an extra hundred to tidy up after she's done. Hell she'd probably even make R2D2 noises at you if you tipped well enough and it'd be a lot less embarrassing than whatever it is you're doing here since it wouldn't be in public

>>45361 >she'd probably even make R2D2 noises at you if you tipped well enough Sounds hot.

>>45353 >>45360 >>45362 You guys are trying to argue with an irate woman. Look at her posts again carefully, and look at the language she uses. Insults, attacks on masculinity, and some rather humorous projection. Look at this: >>45351 And recall that women quite famously enjoy riding the spin cycle.

>>45363 Arguing? I'm just having some keks because robowaifus live rent-free in roasties' heads.

>>45364 Not the best word choice on my part, I'll grant. Still, I thought it best to give a heads up in case not all of you noticed. I'll likely B&D her in a bit, if Chobitsu doesn't get to it first. I'm working on a new meta thread now, it'll be up soon.

>>45361 >It's not gaslighting, I genuinely think everything you've made is garbage. >I Lmao, why should I listen to you? You can't even get your story straight. And am I supposed to be affected by your "I reduced your device down to base componets" reddit argument. >They're already a thing, you just toss the hooker an extra hundred to tidy up after she's done. You're the one paying hookers. I don't. Says a lot more about you >>45363 Most likely, but don't underestimate how mentally castrated and/or how retarded some men are. Like HoloAnon, I like to refute them >>45365 Please do. If only the troll was talking about hardening our waifus or posting a cartoon character with a gun, then Chobitsu would have come in to moderate

I'll leave up the troll posts since they're a little funny. Chobitsu can delete them if he feels necessary, but it's about time for a new meta thread anyway. >>45367 Going with a Halloween theme since it's about that time of the year, and it rhymes.
