That's not an apple power cord.

BOING.

the door has a rather small dent in it now. judging from the fact it's made from solid metal and you weigh about 200 pounds i don't think you're gonna break through any time soon

what light?

you open one of the bottles of beer, sit back, relax, and pour it all down the front of your chassis

you're a robot, silly. you can't drink!

finally, back to important stuff!

you open the toolbox (which could probably easily hold alot of the stuff lying on the ground) and see a screwdriver, a small hammer, a wrench, more screws, more batteries, several bobby pins, superglue, an entire BAG of rubber bands, and a note

since you're already looking at the toolbox, you decide "why not"

it reads "GET OUT"

Terminal is a mac-based/linux thing.

Not windows you bum.

What type of cigarette uses a mac

No idea
Lol@misinformed. The Linux/Mac "thing" would be Unix shell, possibly one of the most useful tools ever created.

Attempt to create makeshift robot from materials found

>_

you create a little toy robot buddy out of spare circuitry that was previously used for things like your multi-dimensional inventory terminal and your plasma cannons (but aren't now, due to the whole flatlined monitor thing), a battery, a few bits of debris (metal, mostly, but there's glass in there) and one of your spare eyes

as you switch it on, it looks up with big optical lenses and says
"01000100 01000001 01000100 01000001!"

since you don't really have anything to do with him at the moment, you let him amble around the room a bit. since you're a robot you don't really feel anything bu- wait. no! you do feel something

is this... compassion?



no, never mind. just a screw loose

>check door for doorknob: pick lock_

>Check door for a doorknob and attempt to lockpick it

>_

you examine the door to the east

looks like it's mostly made of steel 'n such: logically, it would be very, very sturdy. it seems to be operated by a push bar, which seems to have jammed. if you had something small enough (or someONE small enough) you could probably check inside, but there might not be enough light to operate properly

dammit, turt-tech. why'd you have to skip on the nightvision?

>assorted 'crash' commands_


without your most basic operating files in place, you have essentially committed robotic Self Delete!
