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.
you have 20 seconds to comply
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?
Because time travellers keep appearing with guns?
If they appeared with guns, wouldn’t the robodogs also be strapped?
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.
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.
Shitty ass movie life
Shitty time travelers and their stormtrooper aim.
Somebody definitely fucked up the timeline and they send these untrained time-travellers to try and fix it (and failed miserably).
Now we get Black Mirror robot dogs.
One would think it would be easy to get T.E.L.L.s nowadays and just send one after another
T.E.L.L? Did you watch Travelers? I think thats the only place where I heard that term. Man, I loved that show, a shame they cancelled it.
Maybe they only managed to send two time-travellers before they got raided by the gestapo. 🤷♂️
Welp now we get to be in a dystopian movie
not even just a movie, we got a whole series with possibly multiple seasons
I have a feeling I’m one of the side characters that’s gonna get killed soon.
T.E.L.L? Did you watch Travelers? I think thats the only place where I heard that term
yup, that was a reference
When they send over these time travelers, they’re not sending their best…
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.
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
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?
Because real dogs refuse the job.
I feel an urge to go play Horizon Zero Dawn now.
You just reminded me I need to pick that back up.
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!”
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
