Same. I JUST noticed this. I desperately want it to be steven since then it confirms occurrence of "homosexuality" in A.I. ouo

Brad Knowles

Is it "Seven" or "Steven"? I'm confused....

Quantum Cat

Look back even farther. I call first. =)

Chris Magnelli

i was hoping unionrobotics.net was going to be something more exciting than a link to qc

Kerin Schiesser

Now i see that Liam thought of that joke before me. But I still get credit for using the techy-nerdy type name for them LOL

Kerin Schiesser

it wouldn't be "light" bondage, unless they were using fiber optic cables... Just sayin' :D

Someone, and I'm not mentioning any names, is WAY overthinking this.

I'm pretty sure it's a reference to the WeRateDogs twitter misspelling the name of a dude who disagreed with them: <a href="http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/theyre-good-dogs-brent" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/theyre-good-dogs-brent</a>

It is important to note that USB cables burn up not by carrying too much data, but by carrying (or trying to carry) too much POWER. To burn up three cables, they must have used them one after the other. To do it right, all three should have been plugged in at the same time, in parallel. That would have tripled BOTH the data and power capability. And probably blown their minds. I bet Bubbles was thinking they were hooked in parallel. Gives all new meaning to the phrase "hooking up".

Seven? Steven? (Panel 1 vs. panel 2)

Emerson

Stephen.

Next up: Fur lined USB cables.

Dane Filemyr

I was wondering about that, too! :P

Fester's Lampshade

Light bondage? No, that's when you use optical cables. :D

Adam Bell

I'm not even sure I want to know what they do with the USB cables!

Bubbles got some clothes!

dipique

Happy #3500!

Jason Doege

Seven or Steven? (2nd panel)

Caleb Lee

I think Seven's comment has given Bubbles the vapors. Oh my.

John Ridley

Bubbles looks good in street clothes.

Is Seven just blushing or is she getting aroused? Her face orb gets redder and redder.

David Paul

Yes. Yes he did.

Rich Holmes

Thanks for reminding me. I have a feeling that will whoosh over a lot of heads tomorrow though.

Rich Holmes

It does redirect to questionablecontent.net.

Waffliesinyoface

I'm kinda surprised you didn't buy "unionrobotics.net" and use it for another joke url

Chris Hewson

I misread the sign as Unicorn Robotics at first! A shame, as that would've appealed greatly to Bubbles. ;)

Cleo Schmitz

...and Steven!

Andrew

When will kids learn to connect their cables in parallel instead of serial. It makes for much safer coupling!

Quantum Cat

"Does that count as light bondage?" Not if it's USB. Fiber-optic, maybe . . .

Seven? or Steven?

Netbattler11

Steven?

Megan

Seven. It's a "They're good dogs, Brent" joke.

so um, <a href="http://unionrobotics.net/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://unionrobotics.net/</a> Jeph I know you like to buy domains, hopefully you got your hands on this one!

Lisa

Oh. My! ::fans self::

Pat Allan

So who went and registered unionrobotics.net, and what are they going to do with it? :)

Is the Blue robot Seven or Steven, I'm confused.

Paul Grodt

Union Robotics: A company forced into a constant and bitter struggle with Confederate Robotics.

MikeT

Cue joke about thunderbolt and electric sex...

Abhayakara

Right, and you know how families are made...

There is a thing called a USB condom. Y'all should use one. <a href="https://int3.cc/products/usbcondoms" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://int3.cc/products/usbcondoms</a>

Drakoo Dreamer

Are usb parts like condoms?

Czarzhan

Bubbles in panel 2: Yay normal civvies! Bubbles in panel 4: I never thought we'd see her boggled.

Gary Walker

So, what font is that on the sign?

Gary Walker

I don't disagree, but I think Faye is riffing on @dog_rates from Twitter. Getting the name wrong is part of the joke.

Gary Walker

Bubbles, are you wearing pants? Yes.

Kyle Major

That's gotta be terabytes of sex per second

Celine Chamberlin

Faye says "Steven" instead of "Seven" in the second panel. Are robots gender fluid? I can't see why not, really.

Minzoku Bokumetsu

OMG IS THIS A FAMILY COMIC 😱

Ed Marshall

"unionrobotics.net is a totally awesome idea still being worked on. Check back later." 😉

Looks like Jeph picked up the domain on monday, I wonder if he is planning a site for it?

Max D S

They should consider using multiple ports to load share (or maybe they were already, oh my!) Is multi port sex this world's tentacle sex?

aetherspoon

I take it you already bought the domain? :)

Ting

Robotic French kiss by means of massive rapid I/O operations

Shawn K. Younkin

Bwhahahahaha- Bubbles being shocked is adorable!!

Adam Friedlander

it's a good sign, buckles
