Robot Goes Berserk in California Restaurant, Dragged Away by Staff After Smashing Tableware

A video on social media shows a dancing robot knocking over tableware, smashing plates, and sending chopsticks flying.

picked up a copy of this antique 1929 manga by author and artist Nio Mizushima. I'll translate the title for now as Country Bumpkinski in the Big City. It's a comedy, including one section that features a rather silly robopocalypse #antique #manga #early #showa #scifi #robot #robopocalypse #comedy

picked up a copy of this antique 1929 manga by author and artist Nio Mizushima (水島爾保布). I’m going to translate the title (見物右衛門) tentatively as Country Bumpkinski in the Big City. It is a work of comedy, though one sequence of vignettes is sci-fi, featuring a rather silly robopocalypse. (Note the topless robot on the back cover.)

I'm pretty sure "Robopocalypse" had a scene like this one near the beginning.

I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords. Hopefully my electronics skills can be useful...

I'm currently reading #Robopocalypse by #DanielHWilson. I am enjoying the slow unraveling of the #robot #apocalypse as seen through significant events in the shift from #ai #singularity to straight up robot uprising in very intriguing and believable ways.

It's a good read and I am tearing through it. It is thought provoking, scary, and entertaining, which is really interesting.

What are you currently reading?

“Why are you so polite to the AI? It’s only an algorithm!”
“Because when we become irrelevant and start being hunted for sport, I want it on the record that I was respectful and kind to our new overlords.”

It’s a good thing that Astroboy had a heart as pure as gold … or the Robopocalypse would have had its ruthless leader.

#Robopocalypse by #DanielHWilson. 1 of my favorites for 2021 already (https://www.goodreads.com/fogsrollingin)

It's basically like #worldwarz by #maxbrooks only w/robots. Fantastic. Also the author sounds like such an interesting person: a Cherokee citizen, a CMU Robotics Institute grad, lives in Portland w/his wife & daughter. I feel like he's probably been thru some shit these past 4 years, wow.

Got my hold on the sequel #RoboGenesis at my library & impatiently waiting now 😊
