Idk I lost the plot at some point I just started robot posting in the middle of Walmart. Pretty silly.

For the flying drones, motors that could carry anything larger than a few kilos are like crazy expensive. So spraying or shooting something that was sticky, hard setting, or corrosive could be useful.

You could also do signal jamming, this tech already exists.

You’re not fighting the bots you’re fighting whoever sends them. So anything that disables I argue would always be possible and maybe even trivial

Very practical!

Possibly!

I’m not talking about an isolated individual Rambo, I’m talking about well coordinated, disciplined guerrilla warfare.

I’m not saying the tech isn’t effective, I’m saying it’s vulnerable, and I think that the right tactics could give us an advantage.

Just the way you seem to think about these things is very silly

So I’m not talking about going solo against a fleet of lethal bots, I’m talking about coordinated guerilla tactics that neutralize and permanently disable them. I have a copy of the tech manual for those robot dogs, eh, somewhere on my PC. The point is you wouldn’t figure out how to remove the battery, like the previous person said, you could aim for the battery to disable it, you’d already have knowledge of it.

The lens protection that I already said exists, still blinds the camera, it just protects the camera from getting burned out. It doesn’t mean its completely ineffective, but it is a way to disable one of its primary sensors. A lot of police bots also have infrared tech, I’m not sure how that works, but its just an engineering problem.

My point is there are multiple things one could to to temporarily or permanently disable a robot that wouldn’t work on a human.

I do find of funny that you stress the AI, and that is the main flaw in your argument. You assume that these systems will actually work. A fleet of military robots sold to police doesn’t have to work, it just has to work well enough to trick dumbass bureaucrats that it works. We already know how fucked up and unreliable AI is, and you just assume in your comment that the AI works as intended. AI is a buzzword scam meant to fleece the morons in control of public funding.

If you think ai police bots are anything but a scam that couldn’t be overcome through human ingenuity, I have some waterfront property I’d love for you to take a look at

For sure, it will be a form of high-tech guerrilla warfare.

There are already diy heat shields that can be made for a few dollars and have been proven against microwave emitters. You act like ppl aren’t already fighting drones and high tech weapons.

That’s true, it would be impossible to fix.

It would cost an arm or a leg to replace it

You can also shine high power lasers in their eyes. Without some mechanism to quickly block sudden brightness (tech which exists as I understand) it will burn out the camera. Battery removal is the last resort shut down procedure so the battery has to be somewhat exposed in case of emergencies. Their joints are also vulnerable, and could be gummed up.

Signal jamming, drone hacking, there’s so much potential. They scare people, but they are pretty vulnerable.

There’s nothing about a drone with a gun mounted to it that doesn’t scream “free gun”

Individualism is a dead end, the forces you describe are powerful because society is organized for their benefit. The cruel and psychopathic have avenues to make themselves useful to the ruling class. This is a social construct not an individual virtue or vice.

We can only make changes together. I def think people need to be more individually courageous, but the most common source for courage is social support, not some inherent trait. Some people are oppositional defiant in a way that can make them practical for a time, but without something larger steering circumstances then these individuals end up becoming tyrants all the same.

That’s great for them, but what about my chuckles, what about my guffaws, what about my happiness??

Ever since it was taken off the air, I have been putting $30 in pennies up my ass every day, and then spending them. There are so many of my ass pennies in circulation, that surely the executives at comedy central and the creators of battlebots as well as anyone associated with this atrocity and their children, and their children’s children have, by now, handled my ass pennies

Yeah I know they have a theatre in Chicago I think, which is awesome. But I don’t live there. That show was so funny

Cancelled Upright Citizens Brigade for Battle Bots, I won’t ever forgive them

A glass head is actually a sign of manliness, like tanned balls

What is a tit loan? A loan to buy breast implants, or a way to convert your tits into capital that can be borrowed against? Or is it both, so that you can get like a second a second mortgage on your tits once you build some equity?

If pro-life conservative heads were glass no one would listen to them because you could see there is nothing inside
