A few years back Elon Musk mentioned that these robots will be a much bigger problem when they can climb walls, crawl into windows, run 80 mph, etc. It's just a matter of their price tag.
My people give me grief about my 458 Lott and 416 Rigby, saying I’ll never get to Africa for a hunt. I’ve alway replied that I think the big game is coming to me. We may be getting close.
On a side note, anybody know where I can buy a 6000 SUX? I may need some dystopian transportation.
Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well. -Epictetus

That was our plan to get the asshole that killed Officer Derbin back in May. Got tired of sending drones in and all the chiefs signed off quickly for the plan to send the robot in with a bomb.
Just for fun on the RoboCop theme, the block I worked on in Deep Ellum in Dallas in 1987 was a big part of the set for the movie filming. A lot of the old empty buildings across the street were transformed into surface appearing “businesses.” They blew up the car at the intersection our building was on, but I couldn’t stay late that night. A lot of my coworkers did and got to see it and had a blast. We were really sad when they wrapped up. Well, except for being able to see the dude who lived in a loft in an old building across from us through our office windows strolling around naked in his apartment. We’ll leave off the homeless getting nekkid and getting it on under the Downtown Central bridge we could see as well…
