Quoting: StoneColdSpiderI found the photos........ I did it myself a few years ago with the help of my dad who use to be a panel beater/spray painter....... Inside the Spider Cave...... Also known as my garage......

I changed the colour from Hyundai Vivid Yellow to Ford Rapid Yellow....... And while the interior was stripped out I got the windows re-tinted......

Thanks for sharing the photos. Mad respect for your work!

Hope the Ford paint doesn't let you down. They do say Ford stands for Fix It Again Tony...

Cheers...... It took months to do....... Was well worth it though.......

Quoting: PenglingGlad to point it out! Been a fan of robot-fiction for most of my life, mainly influenced by video games, which, at least in the case of numerous Japanese-made ones, tend to take an approach to sentient, sapient robots that's most similar to the "man-made humans" thing from the very work that coined the term in the first place* (barring R.U.R.'s robots being organic and modern-day pop-culture robots being inorganic), and it's always fun to direct folks to this sort of thing.

*If anyone ever tells you that a key point of robot characters is a lack of sapience and sentience, and they're just machines that can be switched off, the originator of the term disagrees.

EDIT: There's a 2018 production of the play on YouTube, as well, posted by one of the actors who appeared in it.

Thanks for another link! While I'm not adverse to reading a manuscript watching the play would be a welcome novelty. I have no idea when I last watched one, much less went to the theater.

Anyhow, "Lack of sapience and sentience", "just machines". The very idea of some people! Such talk would break poor Ms Junkbottom clockwork heart!

What? Don't tell me Dr S isn't vintage robot-fiction?

I watched it just after posting the link yesterday - it's well worth the time. I really enjoyed it.

Aside from this one, I last watched a play when I went to watch An Inspector Calls as part of an English class when I was a teenager. It was an awesome experience.

I just finished my playthrough of Baldurs Gate 3, and the game did not disappoint, even my ending was a bug: i got no ending for Shadowheart at all, and only a line for Astarion relating to Gale's ending. Wyll and Lazael got their endings, even though i barely played them and derided Wyll at every possible moment.

Normal was okay but now i kind of wish i played on tactitian to begin with. The end game fights were longer rather than challenging and interesting. Only exception is the highlight of the game for me: the Raphael fight.

Next one maybe in a year, once they fix every bug they wanted. Game is way too big for me to download it every patch from GoG anyway.
