The tholian was frozen by Phlox on NX-01 when it started transmitting. The gorn, Slar, was killed on the Defiant using gravity plating.

Additionally, giving the robot features of a human-like face makes it easier for people to interact with them.

Not really. You run into the uncanny valley phenomenon if you make them too human like.

I think The Culture by Iain Banks has a good way for robots to show emotion. They use color instead. Make sure the colors are standard and it will work fine.

Enterprise had one also. In the second mirror universe episode. Mirror Archer squishes him with the gravity plating.

I wonder why the boss didn't get #00000. Does he think he is only the second best boss in robotkind?

Guy why do you make so many fucking accounts? You don't have to make a new account every damn day.

I flew NYC to Seoul a few times (also the reverse flight) and that one is about the same flight time. Never again will I willingly fly to the other side of the planet. Not without month long stops between each 3000 miles or so.
