If not fren, why fren shaped
It looks like a fun and fulfilling thing to hit with my car.
Those little fuckers creeped me out ever since the black mirror episode when they were turned into automated murder dogs
Because musk is an ignorant child redditor…that is why.
Boston Dynamics isn’t a musk company
That is correct and not relevant. Being an ignorant twit that is pretty much the first lady and has likely always wanted robot guard dogs, and so suggested them to trump…is kinda on brand though.
Because not spend $10,000 on $1,000 worth of security camera system instead of helping poor people. Rich bastards.
try 75,000 dollars
oh cool/good
The body is Rottweiler-sized, segmented into overlapping hard plates like those of a rhinoceros. The legs are long, curled way up to deliver power, like a cheetah’s. It must be the tail that makes people refer to it as a Rat Thing, because that’s the only ratlike part - incredibly long and flexible.
The grass under the Rat Thing is beginning to smoke.
“Careful. Supposedly they have really nasty isotopes inside,” Hiro says behind her… “A radioactive substance that makes heat. That’s its energy source.”
“How do you turn it off?”
“You don’t. It keeps making heat until it melts.”
The body converges to a sharp nose. In the front it bends down sharply, and there is a black canopy, raked sharply like the windshield of a fighter plane. If the Rat Thing has eyes, this is where it looks out.
As part of Mr. Lee’s good neighbor policy, all Rat Things are programmed never to break the sound barrier in a populated area. But Fido’s in too much of a hurry to worry about the good neighbor policy. Jack the sound barrier. Bring the noise.
Good book, Snow Crash
All these AI detection sentry robots are all trained on the same AI datasets. Just wear a black see-through hood over your face with a stop sign on your front and back and they’ll ignore you and probably stop walking when near you. You can waltz right in.
Or dress like a deer and it’ll just ignore you and keep going
I want to Walz right in
If you encounter one of these, absolutely don’t pet it. Instead, kick it. Run over it. Perhaps, light that little robot fucker on fire. But definitely don’t pet it.
There are demonstrations (or of ATLAS I forgot) that shows them keep straight after hard kicks and such. Wont work
What about an angle grinder?
Plasma cutter
Well here we are, with all the signs of everything going as badly as possible fully present. Goddamn evil robot sentries guarding the fascist dictator-wannabe’s personal luxury habitat. At least down there, if one of those things malfunctions and hurts somebody it would have to be one of the worst people around.
This is certainly not the future I dreamed of as a child and young man.
The adults sold us a future they were determined to destroy before it could ever come to fruition.
This is such a shame, I mean we could be putting those bots to good use.
Can I get a rule 34 on these robots?
Any robot is a sex robot if you are brave enough.
How did you even fit into that USB port???
Well you try one way, and then if that doesn’t work, you roll over, and if that doesn’t work then rolling over again should do the trick
Isn’t this a perfect foreign adversary opportunity for spying on U.S. political figures?
Just integrate your own robot dog, or compromise an existing one. And surveillance away.
These things are communicating by radio. Whether it’s wifi or 4G/5G modem, either can be disabled easily with a raspberry pi and some software.
Foreign adversaries already had Trump installed. Why would they need to go through extra work.
Hell - the new Director of Intelligence is a Russian asset.
Level 3000 hack: compromise security with drone fleas that jump onto drone dogs.
Level 9000 hack: join the pack with a drone attack dog.
I’m sure the secret service is absolutely thrilled.

I have zero faith in our institutions. They’ll quietly do their jobs until the dictator has them purged.
While the robotic dog seen at Mar-a-Lago is not armed, she says competitors appear to be experimenting with models that are.
“People are trying to weaponise these dogs,” Cummings adds, citing a Chinese model with an attached rifle which she learned about at a robotics meeting this week.
Accelerationism coming from exactly the social class we expected
I’d like to pet it with a .50 cal.
Because they’re eating the dogs, the people that stay there, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live around there, and this is what’s happening in our country, and it’s a shame.
And What’s stopping them from eating the robots? I mean someone ate an entire plane
This wikipedia page is true gold lol:
Lotito holds the record for the ‘strangest diet’ in the Guinness Book of Records. He was awarded a brass plaque by the publishers to commemorate his abilities. He ate his award.[3]
Ahhh another Michel Lotito connoisseur!
They fucking won.
will it also say “move along citizen there is nothing to pet here” in a male robot voice?
It can, but it comes out more like “ROOVE ARONG RITIZEN!”
Oh, those are just to stop the kids escaping from the paedodungeon.
When Q-Anon spreads baseless pedophile ring accusations it’s ridiculed but apparently doing the exact same thing for their side is fair game. Great display of double standards yet again.
They’re just pals, nothing to see here.
Trump is appointing a pedo to be Attorney General.
Trump is a pedo.
One is a lie is based on projection and the other is pointing out that pedos are pedos.
They have not been officially found guilty in the court of law [designed to protect them]—how dare you besmirch their good name
If you don’t get jokes it can’t be helped but try not to interrupt the rest of us.
If we want to win over Republican voters we need to appeal to their sensibilities.
They have no sensibilities if they voted for Trump.
I don’t think that calling someone a pedophile is any more convincing than calling them a nazi. If anything, that’ll just make them dig their heels deeper.
Ok but what if they are a pedophile and/or a fascist?
Well I mean you can go around calling them fascists all you want. That already got you Trump twice but maybe 3rd time is the charm.
All the evidence points to them being both a nazi & pedophile.
But pedophiles are something they’re preprogrammed to hate.
Do you think they’re going to accept that he is one when the accusation is coming from someone on the left? I doubt it.
That’s valid. But if they won’t listen to us, what hope do we have if fixing this
I don’t think it’s that they don’t listen to anyone. People generally are open to hear different views as long as it’s done in good faith rather that in the form of accusations. Nobody wants to hear from someone who openly treats them as second class citizens. If you treat them with dignity and are open to hear their views as well you’re far more likely to get them to reflect on their own views too. Daryl Davis is a good example of this.
