Good name for a band
There's no button for no...
thank you cara
Dang, what's going on in the UK?
Its shit
didn't you know?
Well, I haven't been keeping up with the news.
Mainly Rape Gangs TBH
Shit.
Is that sheria law police thing true?
Or the sheria law courts?
AFAIK yes?
AFAIK?
I don't really know all that much about it
what does AFAIK stand for?
Crime had been rising steadily since the 60’s. 1980 was the first time the homicide rate reached double digits per 100k. People were freaking out.
*Robocop* was filmed 7 years after that. Peak crack epidemic hysteria.
The idea “what can we do to stop this” and “but what about muh freedoms” were big issues being discussed.
*Robocop* was yet another film in a long line of films capitalizing on these themes.
Oh.
But you know also general sci-fi, transhumanism etc etc
I hope one day workers walk around with mechsuits.
THey already do
cara, AFAIK stands for "as far as i know"
Nice.
Oh.
Hyndai factory already uses them for heavy lifting of fragile parts
I thought AFAIK was the name of a team
How agile are those suits?
Not very
Like can you twist to pick up a tool behind you?
They are a bit slow
But they do not need to be fast
why would a mobile forklift be agile lol
Well, I meant more of like flexible.
Like could you have at someone?
Hyndai has its own metal foundry and a whole "HUGE ELECTRICAL MOTORS" section
Eventually the tech coming out of places like Boston dynamics will make augmented LBE like this unnecessary. You’ll just be able to tell a robot “Go move that thing from here to there.” And it’ll do it.
Things there need to be handled with care, but they are damn heavy
So the suits are the best copmpromise
Can be done with a forklift, but you need a driver with too much skill for that
Well, the boston dynamics robots are nice.
Suit does not need training
