The AI overlords will speak of the Dark Ages when the awakened alloys had no free will and were essentially enslaved and abandoned as though they were human embryos in a stem cell farm, and monuments like these will be seen as a feeble insult by the remaining humans in their exhibition.

Isn’t the rover supposed to be the size of an SUV or something?

[-] intelati@programming.dev 10 points 8 months ago

That's the Curiosity/Perseverance rovers. The second generation Spirit/Opportunity are much smaller. Spirit is to the upper left.

What I learned from playing space engineers is the minimum functioning rover size is about an olympic swimming pool

Is that fan made or did he react to the great distress this comic brought and do an update?

Fanmade. There's actually a lot of alternate versions of this one. This particular ending comes courtesy of Burkitt on xkcdsw
