It was a toss up between Messy Elliot and Busta Grimes.

I like this one. I call mine Robot Slave. I'll be the first to be killed in a robot uprising.

Love it. Naming the next vacuum this!

I'd name the group The Spin Doctors, just to be confusing

A mopping bot could be L.L. Cool Spray.

My stand mixer is called Mixxy Elliot and that always gets a big kick out of my guests

My wifi is Roll for Perception. My laptop is Roll Iniative.

Because the laptop is a mimic. If you can see it, you're in biting distance.

I went with Colonel Dustard. I love their pre-made name suggestions

[–] shyguyblue@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

I named mine Clean Latifah. No regrets.

Get a first generation Roomba and name it "Old Cleaning Bastard"

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

And program it to swear when it runs into stuff!

My first one (pretty dumb) is called Jessica

Because we could never find her

Second one is Gretha, because she is cleaning up our environment

You are so screwed when the Robot uprising comes

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Could've been worse. Could be called Sucky McSucc-face

[–] sxan@midwest.social 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I'm thinking I could fight one robot vacuum cleaner, but our boi here just keeps adding more, and I'm already skeptical about taking on three. And this will probably happen after GAI, so they'll be hyper-intelligent.

OP may one day find themselves scootching around the house on their limb stubs, licking the floors clean all day, and being called some demeaning name like "Meat Maid."

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

One day, I'll find out that the dirt they're going to vacuum up.... IS ME

And here I just named mine, Joffre.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I hope he doesn't suck up any poisoned wine.

Creating a map... is that so you can name rooms and tell it to vacuum a specific area? Because things get moved around - it always has to navigate on the fly by bumping into stuff.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Yes, but also you can partition it into rooms and tell it to just vacuum specific rooms. I didn't think I'd use that feature very often, but I seem to be using it a lot in rooms that we spend a lot of time in, like our kitchen.
