Hope they get fucked in the ass in real life by real apes as a form of respect and appreciation.

Given the political chaos of the tories, I do think he’s been a poor opposition leader in that he’s really failed to capitalise on any of that Tory chaos. A few good days doesn’t make his tenure as Labour leader successful. I like him personality wise and more important policy wise, but he’s not a great party leader. Granted, it doesn’t help that the press has it out for him. The path to progress in getting his policy goals can only come from taking power. And with the Brexit chaos and chaos under both May and Johnson, a better political leader would have more obvious public support behind him. Because honestly the Tories must be counting their blessings that they’ve managed to create such a massive catastrophe and not have public support completely abandon them. The Labour leader is always going to get more scrutiny from the press for more ridiculous shit than should be imaginable (imagine if that shit about Miliband eating like a weirdo didn’t topple him, we wouldn’t be in this mess). And political leaders that are easy to attack by the press that can’t (or won’t) put out emphatic statements against those attacks usually have public opinion swayed against them. Corbyn is an easy target who isn’t that great at putting out emphatic statements against those attacks. You couple that with 2 years of really taking any sort of firm stance on the one fucking issue that the whole country can’t stop talking about, so as to not alienate existing voting groups... It all just comes across as 2 years of ineptitude when Labour could be scoring easy points. It’s honestly so frustrating seeing the state of political leadership in this country. From ineptitude, to maliciousness, to a weird mix of both... it’s hard to feel any optimism about the future of the country

https://www.wearethemighty.com/gear-tech/robot-machine-guns-guard-dmz So this is pretty old but the only reason I posted it was because I couldn't find the other more awesome article which states that they could now auto-detect threats. So, in essence, the AI system running these things is now capable of making tactical decisions that are akin to figuring out whether a subject is a threat or not and then neutralizing said threat as well. South Korea leads the world in robotic AI development so we're going to see some more of this stuff come about and the dire need to eradicate humans from life threatening war-based solutions isn't far away. I even said it in the AI thread, the day isn't far when machines can actually make better tactical decisions than humans when it comes to life-saving or prevention-based scenarios. The other big improvement in robotics that has fueled so much good and bad stuff (as tech always does) is exoskeletal work to mimic organic motion. I don't remember where I read it but troop deployments with heavy weapons/cargo will be a thing of the past and it may already be because the exo-s can now carry thrice the load a normal person would with negligible movement hindrance as well. Couple that with the aforementioned weapon tech and add some AI for friendly-spot recognition and you're closer to a self-run killing machine that can do more damage than a regular soldier and withstand harsher conditions.

These are brilliant

Sadly it's not science fiction...

I think it's gone past the point of fuming to be honest. Any intelligent opposition leader would grab the first chance they can to topple the opposition - Corbyn's had countless opportunities to do so with May since the referendum but hasn't.

In amongst all the shite about Brexit and politics...

(I've skipped past the point that 'tragedy' is spelt wrong so you should too )

Click PLAY and listen carefully... This is what it's all about for the victims that have been fooled.
