I was trying to figure out what was going on!

Also, fun fact: We both posted in the GDT for Wrestlemania which led to someone giving us those avs as punishment. And yes, the connection is tangential and confusing at best.

It sure will be something when protesters have to wear computer-vision baffling clothing and makeup to dodge the Boston Dynamics deathdroids and wardogs blaring LRAD and hosing bullets at the food riots in 2030 after the president solves hunger by signing a law that says it's illegal to be hungry.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

they will be defeated by sand and water and wind. no robot can ever replace humans, sorry. fishing wire, holes covered with leafs, trucks swinging from vines, painted tunnels.. powders that reflect their optical wavelengths. humans will NEVER be destroyed by 100% pure robots. too stupid.

This. That fuckin' robot can be defeated by strong light, focused radio waves, or just a baseball bat or a shotgun.

All y'all need to realize that this tech is bullshit nonsense, designed as a scam to employ failspawn.

Ever drop a laptop or a phone wrong? Now imagine how much force an adult male can put behind an aluminum baseball bat and think about what that force is gonna do to a sensor cluster, or a pneumatic system, or a circuit board.

Also, the battery life is either going to be poo poo to keep them fast, or it'll be good and they'll weigh a billion pounds and you'll be able to walk away from one without worry. Science fiction is mostly fiction, don't let insane companies try to convince you elsewise.

Ithink i posted this but a scientist did this long vid about how human shaped robots are garbage and absolutely not worth it, even as "protocol droids." An app, or Hal or a roomba or something would work better for any purpose.

Except they would be worth it for the purpose of interacting socially in a dominance hierarchy. If you would instinctively see this thing and be like "yeah that's a person or something that can help or I can interact with" but it's a tool of oppression because of its programming, it's already working.

If you can't really know what it's "thinking" and it's a 500lb iron man with a gun, or even if it can just restrain you to the free expression area, it's perfect.

Yeah at some point they're just gonna let them put anti material rifles on big stable drones and use those to "shoot engine blocks" and also other targets of inconvenience
