A startup called #Satyress #Robotics (🤔) has built a disaster response/ search and rescue #robot that's a 2 meter tall #centaur

@benroyce That thing is 100% going to be on the battlefield in a year. "The Department of Forestry and Definitely Not War would like to order 500 of them. Can they hold other things like flare guns? What about really big, multi barrel flare guns? How fast can they hunt down...trees?"

@benroyce

This is like something out of a horror movie!

[aubreydelosdestinos@101010.pl]

@benroyce They really did themselves a disservice with the looks of it. This should be slapped with all the firefight department logos. And get rid of the damn horns. Other than that, it might actually be a pretty cool robot. Provided it works.

@benroyce

WTF… straight from a dystopian dream…

[lnsy_dev@mastodon.social]

@benroyce you've gotta admit it would look pretty badass with flames behind it

[plantagolabs@mastodon.social]

@pewnack @benroyce One can be serious and yet have no idea what they are doing. They think it looks cooler like that, and have no idea what search and rescue actially looks like.

If it was a joke, they wouldn't come up with such a practical solution for the hands and calibration.

@benroyce I would rather stay lost than be rescued by that demonic looking goofy ass... thing.

@plantagolabs @benroyce

"...a diabolical alliance between techbros and hillbillies" is not an entirely incorrect description of at least one leg of our nuclear triad

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@riggbeck the chainsaw is cute though (/s)

@thisislieven

Moooi?

That's the company's name? Does it have a meaning?

Well Google is a real company

I'm not complaining!

@mo

"There is an Xkcd for everything"

Yeah yeah that's just a pithy saying...

No, it's really true!

@benroyce
If this is three-halves, I guess four-halves is just an eight-legged goat that folds upwards in the middle.

[macacator@mastodon.social]

@mo @benroyce this is like them saying "we're doing this to protect the children. " Ha, no dafuq they're not. Like, the whole Epstein/Trumpstein/"elite"/0.1% class is full of degenerate, diseased, defunct, deranged, and dangerous subhumans.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@dzwiedziu the eyes and the color scheme are the same. This is from a Star Wars movie right?

[thisislieven@c.im]

@benroyce Mooi is Dutch for beautiful. Not sure where the third 'o' comes in.

I'm just glad it's an expensive horse, otherwise I somehow would have to find space in my not quite big enough for a life-size horse home.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@androcat you're 150% right

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@dzwiedziu i swear this has something to do with this garage inventor's strange set of enthusiasms. it's too similar in two design elements
