I saw the video of the robot a few minutes ago and was going to post it. It's terrifying. It's like something out of a nightmare.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Hmmm, why? Can't you get off the ground like a creepy metal spider that could carry a weapon? Good grief.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Does it even need a weapon? It looks bulletproof and it could rip you into little pieces.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nope. But, it'll carry a gun for sure.

it won't carry a gun. It will have integrated guns.

Capitalism relies on building cyborg cops rather than providing food, housing, healthcare, etc.

I actually fear the worst here.

There’s always been a natural “reset” point when the distance between the haves and the have nots got too large: Guilotines.

They usually got erected when even the soldiers could see they were getting screwed over and turned against the powers that be.
