    I don't know if the X survey for how to decommission F.02 was staged or not. But

    I do know this: having anthropomorphizing and romanticizing your dumb robots for so long like a soap opera from your founder's feed, and now staged this "humanized" robot incinerated in a melting pot EXACTLY like Terminator franchise's ending plot and EVEN hiring Arnold Schwarzenegger for a cameo, is giving me full goosebumps, NOT the right ones.

    I hope Brett Adcock realize that the Terminator franchise is literally the p(doom) outcome, not just in the names only.

    EPIC FAIL in your marketing stunt!

        I mean Karen's were certainly not the target audience, so wouldn't be surprised to read such a response. This stunt reminds me of the olden days where a bunch of dudes get together and nerd out on the most epic way to blow something up. HR culture has mostly killed that. Glad to see some people got to escape it, even for just a moment.
