Seasons

This is a forum or general chit-chat, small talk, a "hey, how ya doing?" and such. Or hell, get crazy deep on something. Whatever you like.

Eww. Prob, I have to say I am fining Santacam disturbing. Still, I hope you get a dragon bot!

DerKork, Thanks. That email goes to one of my "spam" boxes so if you hadn't told me, I might not have looked closely.

prob, guess what? I once sent a letter to Santa. The canadian mail address, to be exact.

Eugene, even if Ar-Too were speaking Basic (and I even speak a bit of Java) it would be awkward since he has no distinct "head" which would make communication much more easy.

Bev, good that we got that sorted out.

I don't know, talking on the phone isn't THAT awkward.

Eugene, I agree that you don't need to see a face to talk, but then I talk to all sorts of things (not just people I can't see) and should probably be locked up. I talk to my car, my Roomba and my computer, to name a few. None answer me (so far), but that doesn't stop me. When Tolkien wrote of trees that developed the power of speech because elves kept talking to them, he was thinking of people like me.

I will admit for DerKork's benefit that I tend to address my computer's monitor when I swear at it as opposed to the case where the computer's "brain" is. I guess the monitor is the bit I look into and so most like a "face" to me. I don't need a face, but my brain creates a face substitute.

I anthropomorphize everything. I hate to not hang all the Christmas tree ornaments for fear one might feel left out. So talking to a car seems natural to me.

You shouldn't anthropomorphize computers -- they don't like it.

Mine does, mine says you are just jealous, because your computer is so angry.

"Mother of all Tamagochi"?
I thought that name belongs to this "Little Computer People"-thing for the commodore 64...

This just made me smile - so I thought I'd share it with y'all:

There ought to be less politics, and more dancing in the world. And on that note, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
