That is why it's better to make robots that don't look too close to humans so it doesn't look so weird.

Yup, if the robot looks nothing like a real human or it resembles a human perfectly, then everything feels fine. But, in between is where it feels weird.

I like your profile picture. Kind of unnerves me though!

The fact that the island being so small is what makes the density so high is what's cool to me.

In my case I looked at the welcome post of my instance (lemm.ee) when it was still small and could tell it was definitely a good instance to choose.

You'll probably experience more performance issues if you choose larger instances. On the other hand, it's harder to know how reliable and stable smaller instances are.

A string of (random) words is a perfectly fine password. There's an xkcd I'm too lazy to get demonstrating it, but it genuinely does add enough randomness to break brute force.

Here's the xkcd.

Me too. I also want to make some changes to it at the same time.

That's a cool pigeon.

They're asking why it became available everywhere.

Bash-like scripting has become ubiquitous in operating systems, and it makes me wonder about its widespread adoption despite lacking certain programming conveniences found in other languages.

In my mouth.

No, I just put it on my toothbrush.
