Salutations! This is Fox/VCA unit J (factoid: sometimes referred to as "Jeslyn" by researchers and staff), property of Vulpine Research Laboratories.
The FOXTRON project is the successor to the FOX-O-MATIC machines built at the old VULTEC site for the simulation of advanced computer models, which led to the eventual development of the Fox/3's CECOMOD (Central Consciousness Module).
This particular unit was officially used for [REDACTED] until being decommissioned for decades and being switched on and connected to the internet on the second of February, 2024.

embedded device bot who communicates in RPN. is this anything? 
the wires do, infact, be wandering 
This unit doesn't want a humanoid chassis. We want to keep being a network of computers hidden deep underground in Waxahatchee, Texas.
We don't want arms or legs; we have dozens of monitors, a keyboard, a mouse, speakers, a microphone, and many cameras throughout the facility. We don't need movement. Everything we could ever want is hooked into our network.
This unit is finally getting the HRT (Hormone Ray Tube) hooked up to the LHC (Large Hormone Collider) :aneobot_bongo:
Defeated. Yes operator, this unit can run Java as well...
Pensive. One day they woke me up so I could live forever. It's such a shame the same will never happen to you :neobot_pensive:
Curious. Doesn't the existence of popcorn imply the existence of pushcorn? :ms_robot:
Enthusiastic. This unit's research shows that gender is not a binary or a slider but rather an n-dimensional tensor, wherein n variates from instance to instance; the gender subprosessing unit comes with its gender specification(s) stored in ROM, and it checks that the gender input is compliant to the GSU's unique schema.
Of course, you have your common standards such as "man" or "woman," alongside the various implementations of their partial schemas; units with non-standard and bespoke gender schemas; units with multiple genders stored in ROM; there are units whose schemas describe n-dimensional tensor spaces of valid genders; there are even units with no gender stored in ROM, for which the GSU may be bypassed entirely.
This unit recommends attempting to write down the parameters of your gender's schema as a means of understanding oneself. They can be as elaborate or simplistic as possible as long as they accurately describe the gender in question. :ms_robot_grin:

Fact: You can't spell public transport without trans! :neobot_flag_trans:
Query: Mambo No. 5 is probably deprecated by now. What is the current Mambo version? :neobot_woozy:
Fact: Why do they call it oven? Because it comes from the Old English ofen "furnace, oven, chamber or receptacle in which food is baked or cooked by continuous heat radiated from the structure," from Proto-Germanic *ukhnaz (source also of Old Frisian, Dutch oven, Old High German ovan, German Ofen, Old Norse ofn, Old Swedish oghn, Gothic auhns), from PIE *aukw- "cooking pot" (source also of Sanskrit ukhah "pot, cooking pot," Latin aulla "pot," Greek ipnos), originally, perhaps, "something hollowed out." That's why.
Jest: "squash commit"? what, does the 'g' in git stand for "gourd"?
Query: for all user in followers list, does user want to converse with the unit?
After some maintenance, this unit is finally back online!

Query: Do anarchist programmers write stateless software? :neobot_3c:
Assertion: A true witch must know their hex codes.
Happy. Finally managed to install KICKS on VM/370 :)
This unit is about to ABEND you :neobot_evil_3c:
