- lazn, on 07/09/2009, -0/+11What do you have against waffles?
- inactive, on 07/09/2009, -1/+12I wonder how long before someone steals it or tips it over.
- numberneal, on 07/09/2009, -0/+11i need him for all these empty peanut butter jars
- TVarmy, on 07/09/2009, -0/+7I'd rather see people crack into them and program them to do new things. Like, say, pickpocketting.
- WaCkYmAk, on 07/09/2009, -1/+8Runs on olive oil and snootiness.
- squishee, on 07/09/2009, -0/+7It looks (and functions) more like Rosie the robot maid from the Jetsons.
- inactive, on 07/09/2009, -1/+8I'd use it as a toilet...
- eihwaz, on 07/09/2009, -0/+7it's just a prototype, they're not really using it.
- zerinS4, on 07/09/2009, -0/+7Ital-E
- nicksource, on 07/09/2009, -0/+6The friendly appearance will only make the violence more unbearable once they turn on us.
And they intake poisonous gases? BINARY SOLO! - chriswastaken, on 10/27/2009, -2/+7DUPE!
- JohnWilsoniv, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5you can have empty peanut butter jars in your house right now!
- counterplex, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5"...robots aren’t legally allowed to roam around without human guidance in Peccioli."
Am I the only one surprised that there's a legal ruling governing the comings and goings of robots in the streets of Peccioli? I wonder what incident resulted in that law. - damnshoes, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5I want a robot that shoots waffles.
- TheLotusEater, on 07/09/2009, -1/+5I can see the apocalypse riding on the shoulders of a smiling monster like that.
- drunkenvthokie, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4Maybe they can do the world a favor and get a whole army of these to go clean up Naples
- TVarmy, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4It says it eats organic waste. How does it know what organic material is waste? How long until it decides that homeless should be composted, since they aren't actively engaged in society?
- TVarmy, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3I personally like to imagine that it also has a Robocop subroutine and would promptly recycle the children's masks, tie back their arms with biodegradable hemp rope, and lecture them on the danger of aerosol propellants.
- rwiggum, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3wAAAAALLLee
- addiggt, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3I wish I could have one of these in my house... man, I can't wait for the future!
- Princeamor, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3I-Robot, Terminator, The Matrix... it was true... it was all true...
- smpaisnutrients, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3so its a robot that goes door to door and checks the residents with an ID number?
oh the joy I feel for this. I just can't wait for legions of government controlled robots to swarm the streets, sweeping my house with their sensors. - ClevelandBrown, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Bet you it'll get kicked over...
- wheezy360, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2We need an army of these in Toronto right now.
- mark5hs, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2The cost to design and materials to build that probably more than cancel out the good it'll bring in recycling.
- RadiatedAnt, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2it's all fun and games untill someone kidnaps it
- zeth006, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2O_O
When I saw that photo, the first thought that came to my mind was "Macross!" - DLtheRMX, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Wall-E is way cuter
- Photokon, on 07/09/2009, -1/+3alright, is it just me, or does firefox scroll insanely slow on that page?
- ArrowheadAddict, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Tall-E. That dude looks more like Paulie's big ass robot in the Rocky series.
- TylerWentAway, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2yeah, but can it woo an ass kicking robot girl with beeps and whirs?
- awggie, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2you're just realizing this?
all sage-prophecies as far as i'm concerned. - inactive, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2@squisheesquishee That's the first thing I thought of too. More like the robot from the Jetsons than Wall-E.
- Conguent, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2Baha.
- pegothejerk, on 07/09/2009, -0/+2We Americans would need a bigger robot for our mass amounts of trash. That thing wouldn't get one house before filling up.
Also, I foresee a problem with masked kids armed with spray paint. - inactive, on 07/09/2009, -1/+2http://rorr.im/digg.com/general_sciences/wall_e_li ...
- Grayfox777, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1They need to get tons of these deployed to waste processing centers, maybe. Instead of going around to houses, they can all sort it out there. Or a robot for every garbage truck!
- awggie, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1maybe a good tasing too... just to reinforce the lecture.
- vizerei, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1Seriously this was front-paged in the last couple days!
- DLtheRMX, on 07/09/2009, -0/+1guys might think walle is cute....
- Grayfox777, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Yeaahhhhhh, that's pretty odd if you ask me.
- Wolfgarden, on 07/10/2009, -0/+1I want a robot that makes sandwiches. I want a sandwich making robot.
- vbullinger, on 07/09/2009, -1/+1What are you, a girl?
Oh, wait, you are a girl. - awggie, on 07/09/2009, -1/+1just you... also, soo unrelated.. don't post that here!
- marblewonder, on 07/10/2009, -0/+0But can he talk?
