'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I want the Roomba and the Scooba to mate and make something that decides whether the floor needs mopping or sweeping or vacuuming or shampooing. And then empties its own dirt canister at the end. And peels me grapes. But I suspect I'd be peeling it grapes if it were that good.
stoopid overlords
There are SIX Roombas?? My god, how are you supposed to choose?
I think only the Discovery works well. That gets rid of 4.

Better than the Scheduler? That looks like Discovery+.
HAL was an example of bad QA. Or maybe it was just bad project management, there could have been a bug logged for "Conflicting commands leads to murdurous rampage" but the fix didn't make into the release.
Which kind did you get, Amy? Anyone else have one?
Eek. Did we hear about this yet?
JERUSALEM, Jan. 4-- Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was rushed to Hadassah University Hospital due to cardiac condition late Wednesday, his office and Channel 10 TV said.
The TV report said that Sharon was taken to hospital at his request, and he was fully conscious and talking on the phone as he was taken in his armored car to the hospital.
don't mind vacuuming, and have a decent one at home, so justification of a Roomba = unpossible.
This is me. Though it would take care of the tufts of fur that seem to explode from Devi at random. Or...well, it'd probably cause more of them. I don't think she'd forgive me. She's a little high strung.
The pink and red ROOMBAS are the same, but the sage ROOMBA has one -- count them, one -- extra feature. Dummies.
Confusing product lines reduce customers' willingness to buy. Seriously. If you put out jam for tasting, people will buy a lot more jam when choosing between three samples than when choosing between ten. They taste all ten, then give up and go away.
What's your take on Skynet, Gud?
Personally (and no offence) I think our current best chances for a rogue AI will either come out of google projects mating in the dark, or all the Linux distros banding together.
Judging from the number of dots on the product comparison page, the Scheduler looks like the best one.
I keep wanting to add an m to the Scooba. Scoomba. Roomba Scoomba.
