      So many Silicon Valley tech workers that I knew were thrilled to have surveillance robots and drones and are probably thrilled to have suburban assault boxes to harass homeless people now, too.

      Just like in the cyberpunkerinos. As Original V Do Not Steal, the Legend of Night City™ once said, “Not all cops are bastards.” so-true bootlicker

    I sure hope do. Would love to see cop cars that can be disabled with 3 strikes from a baseball bat.

    Militarized is a strong word here. Underneath the wrap and lights it’s still just a poorly made truck.

      Considering military grade just means shittiest possible product from the lowest bidder I think it fits the cybertruckkk perfectly

        That’s my favorite robot in a movie ever. I think what really nailed it for me was the sound effects and its voice - particularly when it was angry.

          I used to imitate ED-209’s walk as a little kid and use my tucked in forearms as autocannons.

          I think that helped me get into MechWarrior 2 later.

              That’s some treat enjoyment slop I could totally get into, especially if the music player had some tracks like this built right in:

                  Oh yeah, Mechwarrior 5 Clans comes out in about a week!

                  You have to play as Clan Smoke Jaguar, but oh well. That’s just about my least favorite Clan. Hell’s Horses ftw.

    You joke, but I guarantee every single time these spontaneously combust they’ll blame BLM or antifa or whatever and use it as an excuse to shoot people.

    I, for one, am glad the cops are switching to less reliable cars.

    Cop cars peaked at the Crown Vic
