      Washing the dishes. VR edition. While you’re playing the game, the maid bot does the household chores. Just try not to drop anything valuable in VR, because the bot might break something IRL.

      I mean it’s been a while since I watched any of it but I recall there being space Nazis and they used their overwhelming force to subjugate others.

        LOL yeah, people do whole podcasts and giant episodes about the fascism in Gundam lore.

    I wonder how long it’ll be before somebody murders someone with a robot that they’re piloting.

      Sounds like an Issac Asimov plot. Hell, pretty sure it is an Asimov plot from one of the Robots books.

      And then gets away with it because they’re operating the robot from a country that doesn’t have extradition treaties with the victim’s country

    I, for one, look forward to reading about the ensuing robotically-assisted murders of ultrawealthy folk who think this is a good idea
