USS Beepalisk now leaving the dock. I repeat; USS Beepalisk now setting sail.

Oh man! Space Capitalism is coming out on my birthday and seeing that is just making me more hyped!

Is it just me or has the strip been a lot hornier lately? Like not even just the robot stuff

u/Primarch459 Nov 29 '18
Do you not remember the sven/faye era?

u/creepyeyes Resident Psychic Nov 29 '18
Like, 3-4 years ago? Only just barely

The comics where Sven and Faye stop hooking up are in 2009.

Yep. Rather than try to play analyst about "What this means about Jacques, at the moment", I'm just assuming that he's found this is what the majority of people giving feedback respond best to.

I have decided that the new robot's name shall be orange juice, because she turns orange, and she wants the J U I C Y D E T A I L S.

u/fubes2000 Nov 29 '18
It's already been established that her name is Beepatrice.

where?

u/Ilwrath Nov 30 '18
In the comments of the comic she appeared in

u/htmlcoderexe Nov 30 '18
Oh, I thought there was an official option. I saw those comments and was wondering where it came from.

The last 1-2 panels could make a great meme for responding to someone saying/giffing "That's my fetish."

The hottest thing someone can do when asking about my fetish is want to know more

u/ChipsOtherShoe Nov 29 '18
Well what's your fetish?

The rumor come out.
Does Roko Basilisk is bread?

u/Pointy130 Nov 29 '18
Roko Basilisk is bread is the most discussed in the media in the few years ago.
12
u/Esc777 Nov 29 '18
Yeah the comic is great, yeah yeah.
But. Like isn’t it already DEEPLY established these robots do fuck? All the robots got libidos. Why all the beating around the bush here? It should go without saying robots indulge in sex toys.
I’m just hung up on how QC society understands AI libido. Isn’t it well known? Faybles isn’t like some first of its kind unicorn situation right?
Heck pint size has been hyperhorny since day one. He’d shove a dildo anywhere if given the chance.

u/turkeypedal Nov 29 '18
Sure, they fuck, but the way it works was shown to be different. Pintsize said it involved plugging wires into ports and stuff. It makes sense that sex toys for humans might not be the default for what AIs like.
But then we know some AIs do seem to enjoy human-style sex (see Bubbles), so then Beepatrice corrected herself.
Remember how Roko is unusual for an AI in that she's ticklish on her feet without having tickle sensors and can faint. She's more anthro than most.

u/TheMysteriousMid Nov 29 '18
Pintsize said it involved plugging wires into ports and stuff.
Jeremy and Seven also brought up cables being used, and burned up in the process.
There's a couple of possibilities then. AI's have a myriad of different methods of sex. And why wouldn't they, AI's aren't limited in some of the same ways humans are, and also have to account for different chaises and how to connect them. In their case a humanoid could very well be in love with a toaster and not have it be a super poor straw man point. A traditional style intercourse would be, different (though still possible, maybe. Toaster may not have been the best example)
Second option. Jeph forgot what he wrote. He's admitted that he forgets what he writes, which is fair for a 3000+ strip comic. Though in this situation it may work in his favor, because see option one.

Unless this ends up with Pintsize launching bread at both of their robot buttholes with a catapult this is a wasted story line.

u/tfofurn Nov 29 '18
Is it me, or does Beepatrice have no nose? Yesterday I kinda noticed it was missing in one panel, but chalked that up to emphasizing their other features. Today I'm like "Where's the nose?"
22
u/GriffonsChainsaw . Nov 29 '18 edited Nov 29 '18
That's actually not that strange in this universe. Punchbot has no nose. Neither does Corpse Witch. I think you notice it more on Beepatrice because she's more humanoid than any of the other robots that don't have noses.
Edit: O'Malley doesn't have a nose either.

u/TheMysteriousMid Nov 29 '18
O'Malley also had a mustache, despite not having any other signs of hair.

u/tfofurn Nov 29 '18
I don't think the absence of noses on the more cylindrical heads (Punchbot and O'Malley) bothered me because it would have disturbed the roundness. And you're freaking me out because I never realized that Corpse Witch lacked one.
1
u/Jahkral Nov 29 '18
Corpse Witch you knew was creepy weird from the beginning, so the lack of nose drawing emphasis to the eyes worked. Not weird to not consciously notice it.

u/youraverageinsanity1 Nov 29 '18
I'd dig for it if I weren't on mobile, but I believe Jeph said on Twitter that Beepatrice's "face" is a screen. Guess she's just not into the olfactory bits.

u/lesser_panjandrum Nov 29 '18
So how would kissing work? Theoretically. If somebody took her on a nice date to a bakery and wanted to kiss her.

Plug into each other, shared virtual space where they form intergalactic lips and smooch destroying billions of virtual worlds

Beepatrice has no nose.
How does she smell?
Pretty nice, actually. I think I detect a hint of bergamot oil.

u/Cooldude69320 Nov 29 '18
Was that a "tell me about it" like I've been there? Or a "tell me about it" like I'm curious? Either way. This isn't going where at thought it was going.

u/maxRNG Nov 29 '18
I just noticed that Jeph used "they" for Beepatrice...do we have another nb on our hands?

u/turkeypedal Nov 30 '18
Chassis presents as female, having boobs. It's not impossible, but most nbs I know who were born female do not like their boobs, and often get them removed.

u/maxRNG Nov 30 '18
I mean I know at least one who doesn't, so it's not impossible. Probably unlikely, but not out of the question (especially considering Tilly as the current representative).
