Upvote for the tags. And the cute.

Really well done. Made me laugh.

Naah, we'd just spend all our time apologizing for being too powerful.>> ^messenger:

"It makes you long for the days of Sinatra, doesn't it?" - HAhahahahahahaha.

I might be wrong but it wouldn't surprise me to find out that they are pretty much normal.

[edited to add:] Not that I'm trying to say that radiation's not dangerous or anything like that. I left my tinfoil hat in the closet where it belongs.

Is either model even relavent? aplha radiation has a hard time passing through a single sheet of paper or just several metres of air never mind layers of skin. I'm not sure how much beta or even gamma radiation you might be getting from the decay products though. I definitely wouldn't want to eat off it.
Part of the UK have sufficiently high radiation from radon gas that nuclear sites cannot be opened there because they'd already exceed legal radiation limits. I'd like to know what the cancer rates are like in those areas.

"Fake." God, that made me laugh.

Dead. "This video is private." - Youtube

That was brilliant, and beautiful. Upvote for sure.

You beat me to it, Peroxide.

Here's my translation of "environmental protection":
"Piss off, America! We're not some third world country that you can bully into handing over all its resources for a pittance."

What, but they even got Canada to do that ⇩... The bully wants what he wants

The theatre they're in looks a lot like Pantages in Winnipeg, the Weakerthans' home town. I'm somewhere in the crowd, around row 10. Fantastic show from one of my favourite bands.

Maybe he's a construct as well. Just because we hear keystrokes and a bit of surprise in his voice doesn't mean he's human.

It's fine, he's not paid to think either, perfectly realistic

as a tech demo, it's shit.
as an emotional story, it's pretty good.

Funny, i was thinking the exact opposite. As a tech demo it's showcasing some very impressive facial animation. As a short story, it was poor. Cliched, convenient and rushed.
"You're defective, I have no choice but to disassemble you."
"Pretty please with sugar on top?"
"Oh, alright."
His reaction to her being sentient is as if this sort of thing happens a lot, not "Oh my god, how is this possible? Maybe we should study this" astonishment. If it does happen a lot, why let her free this one time? We don't get any feeling from him as this being the straw that broke the camel's back (could just be bad acting/direction on the male character's part). It's just "Oh, you're sentient. Ok, just this once I'll let it slide... Wow, what a weird occurrence. Ooo, it's lunch time!"

He looks like a young Uncle Fester.

It's making me sick. At one point in my life after doing some travelling I realized I could live anywhere I wanted, and I came back home (to Canada) because it was the best place I could think of. This government is destroying that. The thing is, they're going to wait until we blink and then this whole thing will disappear.
