Hello.

I am curious about the general knowledge of androids in this place and thought I would ask a few questions, if anyone has the time to answer.

1. Do androids exist in your world?
If so, what are they like? Do they have humanoid appearances, how do they behave, are they designed to emulate human responses, et cetera.
2. Have you interacted with an android?
If so, what was it like? Did you know they were an android? Were they able to successfully 'pass' for human?
3. If androids exist in your world, were there laws passed in relation to them, their uses or 'rights'?
What were these laws? Did you witness them being broken? What were the consequences?

And I have another question, not relating to androids. Regarding emotions –

4. Are there methods available to assist in regulating unpleasant or extreme emotional responses? Preferably with 100% success rates, though I am happy to discuss tools with less guaranteed outcomes or results.

Please respond at your convenience. Thank you for your time.

— Connor

I mean the hookers on Contraxia literally power down when they're done doing their business, so probably not. If they did, it'd be an issue. People in the general galaxy don't like things that shouldn't be able to think for themselves... Thinkin' for themselves.

But if you can't drink, then I got nothing. That's typically my solution.

The 'sexbots' in my world had a similar mechanism, their memories would be wiped every two hours. I still know of at least two recent incidents of that model of android killing their clients and escaping.

It's a common suggestion, it seems that's a popular choice for emotional regulation. Do you find it works well?

And that's why people don't like it when "things" start thinking. That happens. And, you know what? Totally warranted.

But, to be honest, the alcohol just distracts you for awhile. It don't fix anything.
