Fat Dalek.
That is a fat Dalek.
*heavy breathing * EXTERMI…NATE
EXTERMINATE THE DOCTOR PEPPER
I’ll be waiting for the news of when it gets destroyed by someone.
You mean, waiting for news when it gets isekai’d after someone pushes it in front of a train lol.
I’m waiting for it to end up beat up with baseball bats and dumped in a fountain

This one is even dumber, it just goes twenty seconds to comply and then become a $20 webcam (for $9/hour of taxpayer funds)
Didn’t the bot get beheaded?
So basically a $5 dollar can of spray paint and it’s back to being worth it’s weight in scrap
I bet if you break this thing you will get charged with assault on an officer
Patrolling in what way? Just being there is not a deterrent for a damn thing.
It has cameras and can follow people or raise alarm. It won’t take long until someone shoves it onto train tracks, though.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
The robot is gonna fall into a bad crowd soon after being deployed.
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
Thank you for the reference, but also F you for suggesting Johnny Five is anything less than a miracle. A miracle with a laser that kills people.
Just a heads up, you replied to the bot, not the person who linked to that timeless classic.
Okay, so criminals are like “It saw us with our masks on. We have 10 minutes to get out of here…”. Not a great deterrent.

I’m going to steal it.
I’m gonna put my dick in it
👀
I already did
DAMN. Alright, you win, it’s your property now. Somebody inform Eric Adams that he needs to start paying $9 per month to @burntbutterbiscuits@sh.itjust.works.
Uh, how is it better than a security camera? Can it dispense pepper spray or chase dudes up stairs?
All the things the cops would want this bot to do are prohibited by rules or by the potential for public outrage; no facial recognition, no offensive capabilities, it’s basically just a camera drone. But that will change when the rules change, or when people stop paying attention… if this thing can avoid being trashed for more then ten minutes after it’s deployed.
Yeah I’m waiting for the article about it being pushed onto the tracks.
It would be a real shame if something bad were to happen to it.
Robocop needs to ease up on the Robodonuts.
Can even security robots prevent anything?
Is it just fancy CCTV?
CCTV that can follow people, raise an alarm, and be shoved in front of an incoming train when it does. A cleaning robot would have been more useful.
Man it would be funny if someone just takes the thing and demands a Ransom…
So ACRAB?
My own imagination as a person from Boston: The MBTA is waiting to see if this works. If it does, it shall find ways to become more indebted. Orange line, be prepared to continue with the status quo. Power out at Maverick. Again, I’m just adding imagined things of my own. Nothing here in my comment is factual.
