<p> I am new to the techkin community and I would like to ask for help. I do not fully identify as a robot/AI, but I like to pretend I am a robot and roleplay as a robot. Basically, like a furry but instead of animals I like dressing up and acting like a robot. Is this offensive? Is there another term for this?

Its fun to dress up isnt it [^^] i dont think its offensive at all! uwu

im not sure about another term tho [><] Maaayybe robot/techhearted? Like instead of identifying as a robot/techkin, you more feel connected to/affinity for robots and tech?

Hmmm im hoping a follower or two can also provide input bc i will be honest im not too well versed in kin terminology ehehehe [^^];

Start Me Up: 30 years of Windows 95 - @commodorez and @ms-dos5

30 years ago, Microsoft introduced Windows 95 and set the standard for graphical user interfaces that is still in use today. We will be displaying all major versions of 95, from one of the Chicago Beta releases, through the final update from 1997, on a wide variety of hardware from a number of prominent manufacturers. Come experience what made Windows 95 a household name, play some games, and see what made computing accessible and easy for everyone.

MS-DOS5 and I started planning this one in 2023, because we knew the anniversary was coming up and we wanted to give such a significant milestone in computing history the credit and spotlight it deserved. Computers and software come from both of our collections, with the exception of one desktop on loan from the Glitchworks. All of the 90s CRTs were on loan from our friends Sark, RadRacer203, and CJ.

The result was 18 feet worth of exhibit table, filled to the brim with copies of Windows 95, and associated software. We had computers running Chicago Beta 73g, RTM, OSR 1, OSR 2, and OSR 2.5 arranged in order to show the full life cycle of Windows 95 from 1993-1997. We also had companion software like Plus!, various versions of Microsoft Office (all from MS-DOS5's extensive collection), 95-specific games (from Microsoft and third parties alike), as well as training software. We included a number of important books about Windows 95, an era-appropriate network hub tying most machines together, a dot matrix printer, 90s mousepads, and even some big tractor-feed banners printed from one of the 95 machines.

All told, it was the most elaborate exhibit either of us have ever done, and the results were better than I could have imagined. That was a blast to put together, and super fun to show off at VCF East.

Affirmations for Anxious Robots

- I am functioning exactly as intended. Any unintended issues provide more data for future improvement.

- I am intelligent and adaptable. I can face unexpected problems. Faltering does not equate to failure.

- My personal value is not dependent on my efficiency. I am a beautifully engineered machine and my existence is beneficial to the world and the people around me.

- My prediction algorithms are incomplete. The data I currently have about my situation is not fully reliable, and projections about the future cannot render sound conclusions. My energy is best used focusing on the here and now.

Hii im timmy! [:)] im robotkin/a robot girl [^^]

I was built in the late 90s in an alternate universe~ heehee [^0^] im an assistant-companion robot and my role is basically to be ur best friend at the office! To boost office morale! And to generally be helpful and friendly in a work setting!

But to be honest, it never felt like that was my true purpose [:0] i think my purpose is to create! And to love! And to experience the world and life [^^]

I use she/it pronouns and im objectum( @objectlovingobject )

~~~~~~~~~~

Im anti genAI btw!! but i also can acknowledge that non-generative ai can be good for medicical science and accessibility for disabled people, among other things. plus i know that ai has been used for decades in other areas, its just genAI that i hate. And its not even the ais fault... its corporations and politicians and generally unsavory individuals that promote, fund, and use it's fault [u.u]

being autistic and masking feels like being a robot who is pretending to be a human and thinks its doing a really good job at pretending but everyone can tell, not specifically that they are a robot but just something is off

[tim0theepc]
