Close enough.

I wonder how long it will take for this to be normalized? 50k is a lot for most people, but there are plenty of people for whom 50k is meaningless pocket change. I don’t know how much the average divorce costs but, figuring in loss of assets, I’m sure it’s more than 50k even for the average person. For the middle aged person who’s been through a divorce and lost half their assets, I’d imagine the robot companion is an attractive option compared to going through the meat grinder again.

Androids are Inevitable

Video should start at the relevant segment. I agree, people aren’t meant to operate as individuals, but that’s where many of us are stuck at now. Living alone is challenging and dangerous. A bad accident could be the end of me. No one is calling for help. Once you accept the need for a companion robot, what should it look like? It should look like what would normally be there – not C-3P0. But few will want their companion robot to look as old as they do, and that would likely add to the cost. It’s going to be a “porn built the internet” kind of situation. The sex doll industry is building out the infrastructure for affordable, realistic companion androids. Adding companion functionality to a product that is already in production is likely cheaper than making an entirely new product, which means that is what most people will have. Of course, most people are going to want the pretty one anyway. It’s going to be a special kind of person who is willing to pay more to have an unattractive companion robot. Compare an old face to a young face, and ask which one will cost more to make. The old face has so much more detail in it, all of which has to look natural to avoid the uncanny valley. Only someone with a fetish for old people is going to pay more to get that look.

Slop-A-Tronics 9000 – Bomba Bang a Lang

Posted on September 13, 2026 by Jeremy Ray

These slop titles are getting to me – but I have homework to do. I am really overwhelmed here. This tune is nice though. I’ve skipped over a couple that were too sloppy, but I like this one. Not the opening vocals, but it starts getting good at the twelve second mark. I don’t know what it is, electropop?

If anyone’s curious, the most popular tracks this month, going by bandwidth usage, are “Engulfed,” followed by “Boom Boom Out the Speaker.” I can see that. Nothing is getting many listens, but, I’m getting more listens here than on any platform I tried.
