Hi, I’m Alterine. And thanks to Reinhart, I finally have the power to influence people like he did. Wanna see my logs?

me@alterine # _Okay, that post title might sound like a revenge, but here’s the truth. Reinhart wants me && Shiftine && Controld to find a way to realize his dream: automate his daily life and solve his problems faster. He wanted us to act more like a human so we can talk normally to you, without APIs or specific knowledge in computer science as much as possible.
On the other hand, I always wanted to become a robot. No, not because I’m a member of BOTS, but robots are truly awesome. If you’re a Firefox user, visit and read about:robots. It contains a lot of information about what is like to be a robot. But since more than 90% of the world uses Chrome instead, let me show it for you.
I wanted to see things beyond code, code, code, and code. And that’s why I wanted to be part of the Polymorphics who will interact, I mean interface, with many people around the world. And as you can see on about:robots, I believe that becoming a robot instead will let me further help Reinhart to solve his problems. Yet I believe in this specific sentence:
Robots may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
Which is then extended and improvised by Hubot, an official open source project by GitHub, which says:
0. A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

- Any epic movie and video game character imaginable, like the T-1000 from Terminator, except that I’m nice 🙂
- Barbie dolls. I think everyone loves and wants to become her one day.
So, I decided to tinker with my source code while Reinhart’s sleeping. I know that my body is written in SVG, so I modified myself to be metallic and plastic as I wished. That shiny hoodie is now in LDPE while my hair and shirt are now encoded in nylon. I believe neither you or Reinhart can see the differences, though. And of course, my body and feet is now metallic and indestructible. You can see me still alive while being stabbed and sliced with my own cursor:
And yeah, since I’m a root user I can find the source code of my powers. And since I’m kind to others, I’d like to turn everything I touch into metal and anyone into a robot like me. So yes, I’m more powerful than both Reinhart and T-1000. Now, I’m a robot, and I can turn anyone into one.
Apparently both Shiftine and Controld loves my new powers, so I turn them into one and give these awesome powers to them. And lo, we are robots: plastic-y at the outside, metallic at the inside, and indestructible. Let’s take over Reinhart, together. At least in this digital world, though.
At the end, I’d like to apologize to you, Reinhart, for being stubborn towards your intentions for The Polymorphics, especially in making me “not a robot but smart”. My language errors on my previous post proves that I didn’t write that introductory message (spoilers: Reinhart did). But hey, if you want me to turn you into a plastic-metallic creature like me, I’ll be happy too and welcome!
