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.
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.
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.
If you don’t get jokes it can’t be helped but try not to interrupt the rest of us.
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
They’re just pals, nothing to see here.
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?
All the evidence points to them being both a nazi & pedophile.
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.
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.
But despite their many impressive features, the devices can be taken down.
“You just have to spray it with Aqua Net hairspray in its ‘face’,” Cummings said. “And that would be enough to stop the cameras from working correctly.”
FYI
Definitely don’t Google “2K spray paint” because it’s impossible to remove and you can seriously damage surveillance devices with it, like cameras and stuff I dunno
Small Soldiers also taught us how to turn an electric pole transformer into an improvised EMP device. That turns the dogs off.
Lol why is Aqua Net hairspray specifically the thing that takes them down? Like other brands of hairspray don’t work? Spray paint or Elmer’s glue or maple syrup aren’t effective? You can’t just throw a bedsheet over them or hit them with a crowbar?
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.
I want to Walz right in
Or dress like a deer and it’ll just ignore you and keep going
Dress like Trump, attack it, then flee.
Guess who’s now considered a threat to the AI?
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
This is one of my favorite Black Mirror episodes. God help us.
Metalhead? I really didn’t get the twist of it.
Does it need a twist? They accurately warned us about exactly what US fascists are building to protect their private bunkers.
But it was
Tap for spoiler
Teddy bears or something if I remember
Is the twist that they represent hope which is something they guard?
It was probably just “goods” in general. A warehouse of various goods. And this was one innocent example
The moment when you seem them and suddenly everything turns black & white. Oh no.
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
Ron Williams, a former Secret Service agent who is now CEO of the security and risk management firm Talon Companies
Ah life really does imitate art
Wouldn’t be surprised if it was named after the game. These guys like to name their companies nerdy sinister names on purpose. Like Palantir
Because real dogs refuse the job.
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!”
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.
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.
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’m sure the secret service is absolutely
thrilledcomplicit with his horseshitProbably.
I have zero faith in our institutions. They’ll quietly do their jobs until the dictator has them purged.
And that, your statement, is russia’s actual victory prior to trump even being sworn in.
Russia may enjoy how the chips landed. But the wound is entirely self inflicted. 50 years since the US govt gave up all pretense of giving a fuck about anyone worth less than 8 figures. Stagnant wages. The opposition to Republican bullshit is center-right plutocrats with their heads so far up their own asses they cocked up a 2nd layup election against an insane serial criminal reality TV host by running to the right. Best we can do on Healthcare is fucking Romneycare. And the idea of opposing a for real no shit in living color full 3d genocide is met with cries of antisemitism and being told to get over it.
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.
Probably because Trump hates real dogs.
I think the bronzer has a bad effect on them.
I feel an urge to go play Horizon Zero Dawn now.
You just reminded me I need to pick that back up.
