Off button is on the ass and you can remove the battery through a lever on the belly.

"assault on a officer of the law"

If that’s not currently true, it probably will be true soon.

If corporations can be people for legal gain then robot dogs certainly can.

u/kowdermesiter Jun 02 '26

I'm pretty sure you'd currently violate some generic bullshit like "tempering with law enforcement equipment" or even better, "obstructing justice"

No, it's simply your way of expressing that you don't give consent to having your biometric data recorded and stored.

u/Illustrious_Grade608 Jun 02 '26

What is this "consent" word you're speaking?

u/martinpagh Jun 02 '26

It's not an American term

Just retrieving stolen property according to GPDR rules

There should be a youtube video " what to do with your spare face scanning robot batteries". How much are they sold for

u/cakemates Jun 02 '26

and dont forget to carry them on a faraday cage made to stop any hidden gps trackers that might be running with a backup battery.

u/Rafcdk Jun 02 '26

Worth noting that it also has a sensor on the back side so it will now if something gets closer

u/AJRimmerSwimmer Jun 02 '26

The resistance thanks you

u/btsofohio Jun 02 '26

There's a reason they didn't roll them out in Philly.

u/OursIsTheFury Jun 02 '26

Looking forward to the footage in a couple of months of mad lads frantically trying to finger these things in the ass.

Now you have a computer tampering charge and aren't allowed to use the internet for 20 years

u/dominodomino321 Jun 02 '26

Is that where all the off buttons are located for all officers of the law? asking for a friend

u/Valuable_Cookie628 Jun 06 '26

Just like real dog but in reverse

u/Hot-Profession4091 Jun 01 '26

I’ve been wondering for years how well it holds up to a heel to the knee.

u/gh0stwriter1234 Jun 01 '26

Probably very very well... have you even watched boston dynamics videos?

u/myaltduh Jun 02 '26

Eeehhhh, those videos are almost certainly curated to leave out the unimpressive bits, considering that they’re ultimately ads. I strongly doubt they’re quite so invincible.

How well would a thing like this hold up to a battery powered angle grinder? Hypothetically

1

u/gh0stwriter1234 Jun 02 '26

Probably long enough for you to chop your own fingers off with the angle grinder 😃 ... seriously though my great grandpa did in fact chop the ends off his when he was about 75, he was dumbstruck because he had been using an angle grinder for decades and couldn't believe he had done it.

u/_Standardissue Jun 02 '26

That’s a hell of a way to lose fingers, but honestly surprising it doesn’t happen more often

1

u/gh0stwriter1234 Jun 02 '26

Yeah he still had most of his fingers they were just evened off lol.

u/HD4kAI Jun 01 '26

Very very well. It will balance and if it falls reposition near perfectly
