These idiots need to play some Helldivers 2 to be reminded why it's a terrible idea to have a gun that shoots at enemies operating in close proximity behind your head.
Also they might realize it's a bad idea to build robots with guns entirely, but I doubt it it.
Playing Helldivers 2 is a good reminder about how squishy and delicate humans are compared to any modern weapon, regardless of who is controlling it.
And also how fun it can be to throw orbital weapons at your friends.
Your hearing loss is not service related
MAWP!
What? I can't hear you anymore.

The future is totally deaf. Either due to or lack off ear protection.

Oi! Wanking makes you blind, not deaf.
Due to - 3M ear plug settlement related issued. Wear your ear plugs, get the free ringing anyway
Lack off (sic) - we know they meant an M4 barrel banging on your inner ear drum so c'mon. Hardly a stroke number.
All this machine gun has to do is accidentally turn 30 degrees to the left and fire for the future to stop being stupid.
Wonder how long this idiot would last on the front lines.
"Pull!"
If it is anything like Overwatch, approximately 1 second.
JUST- aghhh
Everybody knows humans were made to sit in bunkers playing videogames about drones mowing down russians with machine guns...not whatever this shit is.

All you people worrying about him going deaf, when he'll be lucky to live that long. One burst of fire and that recoil dampener will kick him square in the back, flip him and then he'll drive head first into the ground by the force of his jets
i hate it for all the reasons but also it's so dumb even if you want a destructive jet pack situation, this is not it.
have you seen the film "children of men"? it's probably the most accurate prediction of the world in the (now not so distant) future. it also has one of the best single-shot scenes of all time.
Such a good movie. Enjoyable as a book too. The only problem I had with the movie was some of the shaky cam work.
I wonder sometimes whether reality will get disturbingly close to parts of that movie. Climate refugees are going to become more common. Tensions are already high. Tension often ratchets up racism and fascism. The brutality toward immigrants is already present in many places, and seems to be worsening. The loss of fertility in the real world is technically present, though nowhere near universal.
The movie was good, but not 'I want to live in it' good.
that's definitely a great film, haven't seen it since it came out but it does live in my head over there with the Alex Jones level shit. it comes up a lot on knowledge fight with movies like Elysium
should i watch Elysium again? i can't remember anything about it, and i don't recall it being very good when i was younger
It's not great, but I always think of it whenever I see a billionaire running their own private space program.
Can't eat the rich if you can't reach the rich.
really well done movie, technically, and i hated it. ultra violence plus some more. I really like some post-apocalyptic nightmare horror, and that's it, still didn't like it.
edit same guy did District 9, and that movie really nailed it in the same genre
With the blood?
