I find speciesism in operating systems almost as annoying as you find racism in humans...
(I'm not saying that it is as harmful, but the underlying "logic" is pretty much the same, actually.)

Also covered by physics.
Look, I'm not trying to be a naysayer or a dick, ...

Given that credible experts have espoused attitudes similar to yours, with numbers to back them up, toward early aircraft, early telecommunications, alternative energy et al. (there's that damn et. al. again), I'll keep my optimism, thanks.

Just out of curiosity... What's the word I missed?

I thought it was "sketchy." I had to read it a couple times, too lol.
And to the person who thought "empty" Momo looked sad, that's funny because I read this with my friend and he said the same thing :lol: (it is a little unsettling)

I believe that particular model though also has the self-repair function that can make it fairly resilient.

I found it a whole lot unsettling. Transfering software to new hardware is a risky process to begin with. When the process fails (as with this example) you have to back off, repair the fault and try again.
With Momo's personality stuck "somewhere in-between" it is more than just sad.
