Perfectly Reasonable:
The USB port is so you can put emoticons on your toast. It's the latest thing.
( of course pintsize has special attachments for that usb port )

--- Quote from: hedgie on 22 Dec 2021, 12:59 ---We don't have much experience with completely alien intelligences. Even with higher primates having so many similarities with us, can't really tell us what they're really thinking.[1] Birds such as crows or ravens are at least as intelligent as those apes, but far different from us. Octopodes are the closest thing to aliens amongst us, coming from a completely different evolutionary branch. QC AIs, though, are going to be less alien to us than even say, chimps, despite having physical stuff that's even more alien than cephalopods. The first AIs did emerge on human-built systems, and had been assimilating a corpus of human created things, culture, thought, whatever. A self-programming computer in this case would probably become even more like us via interaction…
Or, maybe that's what they're letting us believe.
[1] Okay, I'm pretty sure that those monkeys sitting in those hotsprings in the Japanese alps are thinking, and that's "yeah, this is the life"

There's also billionaires. Their brains are super weird.
John Allenson:
I know we're not supposed to discuss private body parts.... But Pintsize?!
hedgie:
Um… at this point, I don’t think it’s private. It’s kinda staring us in the face.
Beast_Reborn:
I guess that answers the questions about whether Pintsize would develop a new sense of propriety to go with his new body. (His grin in panel 3 will haunt my dreams.)
