Attention Asian/feet/suction specialists
Here’s an update that takes care of all three niches.
It – and by “it” we mean the robot vacuum cleaner – is Samsung’s “Tango” robot vacuum cleaner that now has a better camera in it. Or something like that. Didn’t really bother reading what Engadget said as we were suddenly in a bit of a rush to dig the high-res original photograph out of some god forsaken Korean tech blog.

I’m having trouble deciding if the staggering length of her feet is because the aspect of the picture is slightly skewed, or if they’re merely a miracle of long-footed genetic inheritance.
Either way, girl and robot hoover; WOULD and WOULD. It’s the flicky side thingies that do it for me.

Do these things go round your house, eating whatever they find and then go to a litter tray when they need to or do you have to empty them manually by holding them over a bin and ripping their guts out?
Same question about the robo-hoover too.

I’d hardly call “Asian” a “niche”, although I appreciate how calling it that gives the “art of appreciation” an air of refinement and erudition. Weird how it doesn’t do that for “suction” or “feet”. Not that it matters, as no one going to fall for it once they catch me “sharpening my prowess” on some “indigenous artefacts”.
Can one post have too many quotation marks? Yes, yes it can.

The remains of Dr Kenzo Tenma.
Anyway – My loins! My loins!

Here she seems please about the double leg amputation the robot has performed. Though after seeing her feet, I’m not surprised.
