This is pretty fucked, heading in the Japanese direction of cutesy but fucken impractical, especially when you need a robot to stop a nuclear reactor meltdown, but have to resort to throwing buckets of water out of helicopters instead because your most advanced robot is one that can wink and wiggle its hips.
Merkin robots should be brutal killers that violently overpower their grossly outgunned foes....

[matsuki]

Hahaha, I sincerely hope the Softbank acquisition doesn't send them down that road. On the other hand, I can't imagine too many 'merican engineers tolerating the J-level of time wasted on the useless shit you're talking about. The armed terminator robots better be perfected before Winnie the Pooh sends the Chinese troops out.

Spot is the fucking terminator. Apparently they are working with raytheon up the road to develop an AI targeting system so they can mount a gun on it's back.

Speaking of " wiggle it's hips":

Those Boston Dynamics videos are impressive. Not X-Mas related but Asimo's drunken robot dance is a far cry from that.

SPOT Launch
by Softbank Dynamics | Sep 24, 2019
Spot is an agile mobile robot that you can customize for a wide range of applications. The base platform provides rough-terrain mobility, 360 degree obstacle avoidance, and various levels of navigation, remote control and autonomy. You can customize Spot by adding specialized sensors, software and other payloads. Early customers are already testing Spot to monitor construction sites, provide remote inspection at gas, oil and power installations, and in public safety.

They also were the only place I could find open on Saturday and actually had loads of inventory of necessities...bottled water, batteries and such. The scramble on friday at markets/conbini was unnecessary if they had put any thought into orders/deliveries for Friday.

Actually, that's not "low rent" but an artsy-fartsy Xmas arrangement in the style of Sogetsu ikebana.

Santa Claus to cancel visit to Japan
nhk.or.jp | Nov 18, 2020
Santa Claus has cancelled his annual visit to Japan amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Finnair has invited Santa Claus, who is recognized by Finland's Santa Claus Foundation, every year for the past 30 years.
Santa has visited children at day care facilities, and other places, to bring presents. Last year, excited children greeted him when he arrived at Narita Airport near Tokyo.
It is the first time that Finnair has cancelled the event.
The firm's public relations person said it is unfortunate Santa cannot visit Japan, but that he must be thinking about ways to deliver presents to Japanese children.

I wasn't aware that Santa relied on commercial airline transport.

Every five year old knows that he has a flying sleigh. Well done NHK, making it harder for parents to prolong the innocent magic.

Mr. Tanaka can now take the money set aside for presents and go have a wonderfully throbbing Christmas with the ho ho ho's.

Meri Kurisumasu!

Hanging from the outside of Tokyo Sky Tree, window washers dressed as Santa are cleaning the windows of the observation deck.
