WCDT Strips 3846-3850 (8-12 October, 2018)
« on: 07 Oct 2018, 01:00 »

So, I'm kind of stealing the poll idea from another thread.

Anyways, where would we say this arc even started?

It's arguable that this current arc starts in Strip 3690, when Roko's romantic issues first became a thing in the main strip rather than in Patreon-only bonus strips. However, that means it ran parallel with the arc about Faye turning her life around doesn't really end until Strip 3765.

The overlap could be argued as setting up the next arc during the end of the current one.

Also, did anyone else get the impression from the sound effects that May's looking at one of those pimple-popping sites? 



No?  OK, my problem then...

Well, we finished last week discovering that Melon was apparently unaware that an AI may quit a job any time they like. Unless Melon is way off the bell curve, that suggests that many other AIs are unaware of such fundamental freedoms, which is a situation ripe for slavery. One may also reduce therefore that many other AIs live in conditions of exploitation amounting to slavery, and indeed there have been past hints.

But all indications are that Melon is further off the curve for an AI than Barry is for a human.  Now there's a relationship - Barry can move in with Melon and Arthur.

I think it varies depending on the cost of the chassis. May's is just a wig of kinda inflexible fibers while Bubbles' hair can "grow" if she uses specialised polymers.

It's been established that some, like Bubbles, can grow out their hair, by speaking it in a polymer solution. To be sure, scalp replacement is probably a possibility as well. I think that for earlier models that might well be the only solution, though we've no evidence in text for that.

Or, you know, there's always the Pintsize way.

Momo’s hair changes color if she touches her navel so her chassis seems more sophisticated than just a wig. 

I’m not sure if Momo is wearing a onesie or union suit.  I can’t tell without seeing the back.

All I can say at this point is that, when Dale gets back his laptop, he needs to run a thorough deep-level malware scan. He also needs to purge his browser history and cache for the sake of his sanity.

It's sweet, though, May and Momo sitting next to each other to recharge. I'm pretty sure that Momo still has her own bed but she wants to include May in her intimate circle (at least on a subconscious level) so she sits next to her so May isn't in the most vulnerable state an embodied AI can be in on her own.

I guess the more things change with May, the more they stay the same?

Although if you are going to look at that kind of stuff it really is a good idea to use someone else's computer- you retain some plausible deniability :D

I can't see May wanting to deny anything about her... entertainment hobbies. Like Momo, she seeks the authentic human-like experience and that requires using a communications device of some sort rather than accessing the web directly.

Huh, I thought Roko was female? I looked back through the last few comics but I hardly saw any pronouns anywhere. Did I miss an establishing page?

Also I completely fail to see how using someone else's computer establishes deniability. In fact the opposite, it makes the likelihood you will be discovered VASTLY more probable than if you do it in your own private space.

I'd rather go and nuke the OS. And if it's still using a HDD alternatingly write three layers of both zeros and random data.

I think it's more like Momo has a bed, but May doesn't. So personally it's more like Momo not taking advantage of her privilege so not to offend May.

I may be mistaken, but I don't believe it's been established that Momo has a bed.

In fact, she's made it clear that she doesn't need one.

Both are pretty vile on a visceral level.

As for Dale dealing with May's viewing habits, being that Melon seems to be capable of performing magic, then there must also be a few priestly AI. After purging everything, I'd have the AI priest bless the laptop to purify it.

Is that a reference to Warhammer 40K? Specifically Khorne? "Beans for the Bear King" "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD"?
I thought Khorne was more into skulls than blood?

EDIT: apparently it's both: "Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Throne of Khorne!"

Well, she's talking about a cop, and hasn't specified Roko. Roko is not exactly part of the circle (yet).

With the risk of reopening the pronoun discussion - though there's a better thread for that than this one - they/them has been used to refer to person/persons unspecified for much longer than that it's been used as a specific gender marker.

There are lots of cute things in today's strip. The first is, of course, that Bubbles clearly finds the chemical-free acid trips that are human dreams endlessly fascinating, especially as Faye's are clearly intense enough that she reacts to them in her sleep. Bubbles clearly considers it adorable but one wonders if it makes her worry that she will never understand how the human mind works!

Then there's Faye's reaction to Bubbles being there: In her dazed and semi-conscious state, she wants and needs that primal comfort from her girlfriend. There is a lot of trust there and it is clear that Bubbles has gone deep into her heart.

Finally, and I know this is probably me but am I the only one who thinks it is appropriate that a former infantry robot sleeps commando?

Get out. 😝

We do not know about previous shenanigans, I like to give them the benefit of doubt here.

Having someone watch you sleep - even a loved one - has always felt a bit creepy to me. 


The fact that Bubbles may not need to sleep at all could go either way.  Max creepiness from her always watching, or max security from her always watching...out for Faye.

I can certainly see, why one would feel that way.

On the other hand, watching a loved one sleep – preferably in your arms – is one of the most beautiful things I can imagine.

Not just you - Bubbles gets both cuter and sexier in every appearance.

It seems to be a Synthetic thing. Momo watched Sam sleep with the same rapt expression on her face. I think that, for some Synthetics, just watching humans exist is a marvel of which they cannot get enough experience.
