Killer robots

[Treckie]

Sci-fi is becoming science fact thanks to the Pentagon. And i'll bet the UK is already on the case.
I just hope folk can some how put a stop to this.

Yeah, spooky...but consider. These machines cost bazillions of dollars. It isn't like the local gestapo is going to have a fleet of 'em. And they run on batteries. Stay out of range long enough and they will stop, especially in cold weather. And third, their weak point is their legs. Remember Star Wars? A low-tech snare or a drop would take them out.

I will have to get myself a stetson and a lasso.
They would never send them to my area, with the fear of them being pinched and stripped down by my old gypsy friends.

Killer Robot, meet cup of latte!

I would think that liquids would probably hurt them if you were able to get the liquids near the electrical components. Kind of like spilling something on a keyboard if you will.
