It's crazy as hell watching that form factor reduce. The early bipeds looked like first generation NASA moon landing suits. That thing looks small enough to fit in clothing you could buy at a local department store.

And while I think the 360 pivoting hips are an interesting touch I really wish they would constrain themselves to human anatomical moves.

ok, cool, but to do this, it does not need complicated legs/balance system, having tracks à la wall-e or 3 or 4 wheels would do the job

That's not simping, The vast majority of that's paid marketing.

It's amazing that people are still wasting such massive resources on this kind of nonsense while the planet is literally being destroyed.

Same could be said about 90% of things humans do.

While I agree, we don't do enough, can you say your job directly impacts the environment for the positive? If not, then you, like me, like them, are part of the problem.
