If Droids Wore Shoes

6a00e5508e95a9883300e5538dd3a48834-800wi_01-thumb-520x501Master Thirteen would probably not approve, as these boots are rather evocative of his armored ones.  However, for just that reason, if droids wore shoes, these would be at the top of my list.

Perhaps it is all for the best that my components are not, for the most part, user replaceable.

Retraction

I am unsure how, but somehow I had suffered a malfunction, leading to my last missive.  Thankfully, it has been corrected and my previous views on all Rebel astromechs have been restored.

I am rather upset at this malfunction, as my model rarely has issues of the sort, and I have not suffered one before.  Perhaps it was some strangeness with the date, as humans in this political area seem to have an obsession with the first day of this month.  It may bear further investigation, to prevent it in the future.

A Change of…Heart?

R2loveI know I have been most vocal in my disapproval of a certain Rebel astromech.  But today I realize that I may be wrong about R2–D2.

After all, how can any female model droid resist a unit so skilled in so many things, but also with a certain amount of sensitivity?

Granted, he has been misled by the Rebellion, but I’m sure that logic and proper maintenance will work wonders.  And if I am not mistaken, human women have much to say on the qualities of a rogue.

Perhaps I am in need of some maintenance myself, but I find myself quite intrigued.  I shall have to explore this matter further.

Another Serving of Pi

ChocolatepiHere is another shirt that I would love if I were not made of metal and circuitry.  After all, who can resist the lovely combination of mathematics and baked goods?

Or so I’m told.  While I’m quite proficient with pastry, I can only take Master Thirteen’s word for the quality of the results.  I do, however, know what is on the dessert menu tonight.

Birthday Pi?

PiAs a droid, I do not actually have a birthday.  I do, however, have a production date, and that is today:  3.14, or March 14th to a great many humans.  Many of the more mathematical persuasion refer to today as Pi Day, and this fact, strangely, tickles me.

For the occasion, I thought I’d share some items of interest regarding Pi.

First, we have Pi as music.  After defining a musical note for each integer, Pi10k will use it to sound the first 10,000 digits of Pi.

Next, a shirt that I like a great deal.  I know that cake is traditional for a birthday, but given my designation, I’ll accept Cherry Pi as an alternative.

We also have something I’m not familiar with, called a “Pi gang hand symbol.”  How peculiar. 

Another shirt of which I am fond, this one depicting the Pi symbol as created by the digits of the number, and called “Pi By Numbers.”

There are several items of interest at Pi Land, including the Frequency of Each Digit of Pi.

Or, if you prefer, these Sterling Silver Pi Earrings

This Cutie Pi Onsie lets you show your love of both children and math.

There’s even a book about Pi.

Finally, more than anyone will possibly want to know about Pi.  I am especially fond of this image, which shows the relationship between the diameter of the circle and its circumference beautifully.
