Genoma:

One word: Router. As long as the filter your daddy has on the laptop is a software one, a router will get you the pr0n hookup on the desktop. =)

I have broadband on my laptop, because my dads company pays for it... and I have dial up on the my desktop... the laptop bans certain sites... and gives me a limited time to view certain sites...

It would've been funnier if all of the assembly line robots turned on the employees like in Rise of the Machines.

Hey GM, I wonder if the legions of American auto workers you've laid-off in the last twenty years find this hilarious. Ha ha, it's suicidal over losing its job!

Jerks.

Is the robot a metaphor for GM as a whole?

Lame, I thought it was going to disassemble itself or hack itself apart, not throw itself off a bridge...

I couldn't stop laughing. Robots and heaping quantities of pain killers always make me giddy.

They could have shown us the command to kill itself to satisfy Asimov's third law.
