Why do I feel like we will look back from our shattered, dystopian future and see this moment as the day we gave our cyborg overlords the keys to the kingdom?


Maybe I watch too many movies...
Maybe you DO watch too many movies - as far as I know Dyson is a brand name for very expensive vacuum cleaners

What's happening on September 4th?

September 4th is whenever they release whatever it is that they're not really showing us in the video.

We're seeing everything from the perspective of the "new thing" as if it sees everything, as if it understands. As if it's just waiting for the stupid, fragile humans to let it loose upon the world.....

Oh good - if I can afford one I will bring it home so it can make me drinks, etc. (I need something like this)

...but on the other hand, our floors will be REALLY REALLY clean, so when we grovel-our knees won't get all nasty...

I am so lost.

But having lived in California when it was supposed to fall into the ocean, having survived Y2K without the electrical grid imploding and planes falling out of the skies and toilets backing up, having gotten through the trinary-looking 12/21/2012 without anything more to show for it than a terrible movie, and having heard that the Segway would revolutionize the world but instead it killed its new owner, I'm predicting that whatever the new apocalypse may be, we'll keep slogging on and soon forget about it after it's over.

Like Skynet?
LOL!
Whatever it is, this is just clever promotion. If it's Dyson, it's probably just another self-propelled vacuum cleaner.

If it IS a Dyson, I'll be the first to endorse it. The Dyson Animal was the only machine that could keep up with dog hair when we had carpet. Having a German Sheperd in the house is like living with a wolf!

Lepplady, Yes, EXACTLY like Skynet!

Grandpa, I'd forgotten about Segway killing the new owner. There's some irony for ya.

GNTLGNT, true, it would be the first time my floors were truly grovellable...

Neesy, I am so disappointed that it is 2014 and we all don't have robot maids and flying cars. Sigh! But, I guess the sooner we have them, the sooner they take over!

Autumn Gust, My dog has started shedding like she is made of several other dogs and she's trying to get rid of them. I don't know where it all comes from!
