Ah, right, the greenish square in the last panel must be it. S1 does have a socket, but you've gotta wonder how the heck Diego created a CPU chip socket at least 300 years before computer chips were even invented. S1 construction suggests a core in the middle just like with the rest of Diego's golems. The socket must have been added much later. Probably when S1 needed an interface to program/check the first generation robots. Golems weren't designed for plug'n'play external devices, so it had to be slapped right on the "main bus" and works both ways.

I can accept that they were added later, however, the only problem is the whole timeline. From all appearances, the first generation robots were never reactivated between the time of Diegos death, the construction of the second generation robots (the modern ones are an unknown number of generations further, Frankys reaction seems to have indicated that the robots design have changed since the second generation was built), the first generations subsequent self-deactivating, and now, when Kat sort of reactivated S1 and reactivated Franky.
So, unless the golems were still active well into the 20th century (which I doubt), the question still remains who and when did that upgrade happen.

Ps. Also, to the person talking about the silk scarf test, I would say that it cutting through that hoodie just fine and dandy is close enough. No, the hoodie presented resistance by virtue of being wrapped around a hard body. The point of the silk-scarf test is that it offers no resistance. A small ball-bearing dropped from a couple inches, on the other hand, ALSO offers no resistance, plus it's a lot harder than a silk scarf. The expected outcome is that it bounces off the blade.

Therefore, it's as if the ball bearing was sliced by a powerful laser. Coyotes Tooth is not just a laser knife, but a magical/etheric laser knife.
