...does the robot in the Automator icon look like it's carrying a bazooka?

It's just a precursor to the inevitable robot uprising.

No sights, no trigger.
It is a sewer pipe.

Oh, right. Like a robot NEEDS sights or a trigger. It obviously has a wireless connection with the weapon! It can hold it in one claw by its hip and still hit a target with precision unmatched by a human!

And it can hold really heavy weapons, because robots are strong and their hands are made of metal!

I always thought it looked like a pipe, too. I wondered why they used a robot plumber for a logo.

hmm, what else would one use for a data stream, especially on a UNIX system, where 'pipe' and 'tee' is more than just a word ... ;)

I thought it was a pipe bomb too. The Automator is meant to be a guerilla soldier during the robot uprising of 2014.

A bazooka *is* a rocket launcher.

If it is some kind if IED, it's probably Wi-Fi. BT would expose the AutoBot to concussion or fragmentation/shrapnel damage.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.
