Why is it that whenever anyone draws what a robot/android/whatever sees, they put all text and crud down the side of the "screen" and targetting scanners and shit? You'd think that a creature smart enough to be a (semi-)sentient computer intelligence wouldn't NEED all that sincxe there's no human to see it - it'd all be autonomous. Like, there wouldn't be visual "major system status: 99%" since it'd just KNOW that, in the same way you'd just KNOW if you felt like crud or whatever.

Hrufh.
