How'd that one Tom Petty song go? "The waiting is the hardest part?"

Oh, MAN am I feeling that right now. I feel like an opium addict going through withdrawal.

This thread went to a quite unexpected place

Phone sex? People have phone sex all the time.
If they had a easy to use cyber device that allowed sex there would be a hell of a more congestion on the networks.

I wasn't literally talking about Matrix movies.
I was just using it as a simple, well known example of a cyberspace environment.
As for actual sex - the couple in the Last Flight of Osiris does a lot of foreplay before they are interrupted by squidies.

and i hope u didnt take my mentioning of adam as me being religious (which im not), its just a rather interesting part in the book i mentioned

I wasn't talking about you - I was talking about religious scripts in general.

She's NOT like 60-70 KG your average girl.
And since she's a girl how would she take it if you said she was overweight.

Her first body Ido scraped up was rather heavy, being mostly metal.
Remember Yugo nearly dislocating his shoulder when he tried to help her get up?

Her later bodies were probably much lighter.
Particularly imaginos body, being that she can stand on the top of that needle tower in LO VOl. 2.
And her tuned body is light enough for a dehydrated and beaten up Figure 4 to haul around the desert on his back.

However, if you pushing the buttons yourself, or run sex.exe - you're just masturbating. That won't bring any honor to you or cyborg, so do it secretly.

Masturbation is sex too.
Only it is mostly not sexual intercourse - unless two or more people are doing it to each other.

That won't bring any honor to you or cyborg, so do it secretly

Ok... I am getting that there is a language barrier here... but still...
Sex, including masturbation, is not something to be proud of or ashamed of.
Its like eating. Or breathing. Or sweating. Or growing up and growing old.
Why should any of that be shunned?
Its a perfectly normal human activity.

I mean... cyborgs could in theory run multiple bodies and consciousness' at the same time.
Whether they are software, hardware, different consciousness' or one hive mind - cyborgs are not limited by location, sex or time.
A cybernetic mind could just as well have sex at the same time with 50 people around the world, or have it 24/7 while doing other things.
Can't imagine much enjoyment in the second scenario (it would get repetitive and boring after a while) but the first one sounds just like something many enhanciles would spend a great deal of time doing.

"Phone fap" I'd say.

It's like drugs, or alcohol maybe. If you become sexaddict or fapaddict it'll be not a good way to spend your life.
Ok then maybe alcoholism is not something to be proud or ashamed of? And to drink to survive is like eat to survive?

Good Example of multitask-thingy cyborg is i think Briareos from Appleseed

this is freaky scary

.. imagine.. 1 cyber-alfonse.. and he would operate 4 or more hookers simultaneusly like octopus with its limbs

.. but i think people would prefer a "real flesh"..

shish...

Dream · Post by **Dream** » Wed May 28, 2008 1:14 pm

But by definition, a cyborg is a robot with a human brain. The human brain can't multitask for shit, so I highly doubt a cyborg could "sex 50 person at the same time". Robots on the other could probably do that, by instancing one personality in each body. But lol that's becoming a quite creepy discussion I guess...

Post by **crazyankan** » Wed May 28, 2008 3:19 pm

The closest thing to have sex with a robot must be using a real doll and insert a pocket calculator under her skull.

real doll: looks kinda scary. I cant imagine to have one at home (alone obviously) and then get shivers in the dark cause someone's standing next to the window.
MrFabers suggestion makes this only scarier

2 this whole Thread: Who said we'd need raws to fill 4 pages? Everyone is happy, weeeee... or are we just discussing to not freak out because there isn't even a column for Ultra Jump yet? muhuhuahaha

That DOES have me freaked out...like they're ignoring it or missing it or something's gone terribly awry...

hepar · Post by **hepar** » Thu May 29, 2008 10:23 am

I think I'm starting to understand why raws haven't been released yet.
Someone's observing.

Post by **crazyankan** » Thu May 29, 2008 12:50 pm

I want the old ultra jump scanlators back. They did a great job.

Last time it took time to get the raws, it was when the Japanese police arrested lots of manga scanners that was uploading it at Winny.

Oh, yeah! Geez, I hope nothing's wrong.
I mean, France wouldn't arrest people for that, would they?

Some of the French speaking should take a look at the forum for some news about ultra jump.

Looking at the forum myself, the Gunnm Last Order section hasn't been updated since May 17th. Whatever they've done regarding our beloved series, it hasn't yet been posted on the forum. Unless they have a radically different week-long timetable we're not aware of.

you do know that asking for raws or scans is immoral in the warez scanlation underworld ? ^^

Hahaha I know. It's the worst thing I know when people ask me "when will next BAA LO phase be out" and "when will next Eden chapter be released".
Then I take some extra time to torture them with no releases

Good comparison!
And considering that sex with a doll is completely idiot (masturbation would be more interesting), we can conclude that sex with a cyborg would be as idiot is (although robots have some autonomous movements). The cyborg has free will, that is true, but it is still a machine.

That closes the conversation to me.

I wonder if the scans are late because GLO no longer gather much intrest in readers. We must admin that since volume 9 it got pretty slow and boring...

YOU can admit that, if you want...

But what about the rest of Ultra Jump? SBR and all that stuff.

hmmmm i would not say that ... in vol 10 is all Zekka invitation ... later is another round in Zott which is also interesting ...

Last 2-3 phases .. from 75 to now is quite slow... but i think it is to bulid up a tension about Zekka that he is REALY incredible ... but no-one knows how awsome he realy is .. and i think that there will be chapter about Zazie...

No we mustn't.

Just about every single manga of certain lenght will have it's "ups" and "downs" trough its run and some people believe that GLO is in one of it's downs right now. Maybe the last chapters haven't revealed anything of central importance and maybe the ZOTT-tournament offer nothing especially new or original (after all, tournaments are used as a plot-device in tons of other manga too). But does this make the manga boring? Personally I don't agree with this. Compared to the trouble some of my other favourite-series have run into, the "problems" of GLO are relatively insignificant to me. I still think it's better than about 98 % of all the dross that's out there.
