It's very impressive seeing it get over those obstacles at that speed with no hassle.

Getting over the obstacles? No hassle? Did you not see its tether go taught? Without that tether it would have fallen asimo over tit.

However, more importantly, it's a planar biped.

Planar bipeds are not interesting. Everyone in the robots community, apart from students who work on planar bipeds, will be cringing at this "advance". The little robot in the icon at the corner of the summary is more interesting, from a robotics perspective.

Uh, the summary photo/icon is the same velociraptor robot. What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the *icon*. You're confusing the photo with the icon. This should be clear from the fact that you used the term "photo/icon". Look at your settings for the image preferences and re-evaluate what you wrote.

Then stop starting sentences with "Uh".

Eventually, you may be coherent enough to be able to post under a real identity without bringing shame upon yourself. But that might be years away, you have a long way to go.

My god phatphil, and nice real identity by the way, are you really so dimwitted that you think everyone sees icons by default? We don't, you slow witted cretin, which is why I asked what the devil you were blathering on about. With as lightly trafficked a site as this, a reasonably savvy and moderately intelligent human would address things actually visible. You are clearly neither savvy nor minimally intelligent nor even courteous. You're a bloviating fool in rightful obscurity muttering to himself about the unfortunate shape of the clouds in the sky. Enjoy this tiny bit of attention; it's more than you deserve you ungraceful twat.
