The US military did a test with something like 20 soldiers where they had to avoid detection by autonomous systems designed to detect humans.
Every single one of the soldiers used a different method and every single one of them succeeded in not getting killed by the system. Tactics varied from moving extremely slowly in prone position to literally metal gear solid hiding inside a cardboard box, one soldier covered themselves in tinfoil.
These will be no different. Easily defeatable simply by behaving in ways that are outside its detection, or not looking like a human being.
From a technical point of view, it’s easier to point a gun and shoot at whatever enters your detection range if you don’t have to distinguish whether it’s a human or not.
Good thing for the South Korean military that birds, animals, and leaves blowing on the wind don’t exist.
In the event this happens, critical support to North Korea using a big fan and a trillion leaves to get the South Korean military to waste thousands of rounds of ammo on nothing
Didn’t one of them also hold a bunch of tree limbs and similar nonsense?
Not hard to avoid if you know what it is and have any sort of frontal lobe
Maybe! I don’t remember them all or exactly where I read about it. Just really stuck with me that defeating this shit is really just a matter of doing whatever the devs have not planned for and that’s gonna be a lot.

Seems silly of them considering how prolific North Korean hackers are, at least according to Western media. They’ll just pass their silly hacking mini game and turn the turrets on South Korea
If I install a turret with a 90° range of movement, no amount of hacking in the world can turn it 180°.
sed -i 's/90/180/g' *
get hacked idiot
Oh shit. Oh fuck.
I’m pretty sure this is literally terrorism
Hello federal agents
Common mech/EE W
That’s why you hack the printers to make the turret installation blueprint come out upside-down.

I’ve heard from a lot of NATO leftists that China should be more like South Korea. People who say that only get their knowledge of that country from Kpop and Kdramas.
Kpop, Kdrama, and anime really influenced Western perspectives on East Asia.
I feel like I get most of my knowledge of South Korea from Kpop, and that alone is enough to see how dystopian it is.
Idols are dehumanized and treated as commodities. They’re overworked, starved, and heavily scrutinized starting at a very young age all while being separated from their family. Many trainees also can’t quit because they will owe a debt to the company for their training. Even trainees who debut don’t get paid until they pay the company back for their training.
I understand no one is forced to be an idol and it’s actually mostly made up of kids from wealthy families, but it’s still a brutal industry. When even the glamorous celebrities are worked to the bone, life must be so much harder for everyone else.

reactionary industries which are hubs of human trafficking and SA btw. great place to get your knowledge and respect for a whole country from
JUST LIKE IN THE SQUID GAME TREATS 🔫 🎎
unlike the DPRK the South Korean military dictatorship installed by the USA actually did police haircuts [article]
south Korea is one of the few countries on earth that seems like they’d be worse to live in, from a “hope for the future” point of view, than the US
Death to America

Materially worse to live in
Though they do have single payer universal Healthcare so… idk.
The single payer is the state.

South Korea is a cyberpunk dystopia
Can’t speak about the channel in general, and there is no mention of the north, but this is a pretty short summation of South Korean society that does not hold back. I guess CW since it will probably make you sad, but it is also kind of mesmerizing how bad it can get.
mhm. op’s article mentions “the almost unbelievable defection of a South Korean farmer across the DMZ into North Korea” but like… for a lot of people there don’t seem to be very attractive alternatives? first in all oecd countries-
holy shit 33% more than the next highest on the list, and almost twice as much as amerikkka. unbelievable levels of desperation
Death to America
What’s this number for trans youth is the bar of comparison I’d like to see
What’s up with Hungary? That’s crazy
the existence of a shoot-on-sight no-go zone several kilometers wide opens up options for some interesting hardware.
This is the mindset of terminally STEM-brained people. I had to unlearn so much of that “this is very interesting problem when seen in isolation, i don’t need to think about anything else” after leaving engineering school.
“this is very interesting problem when seen in isolation, i don’t need to think about anything else”
load-bearing fascist ideology
Spherical crimes against humanity in a political vacuum
Hereby I assign you the award for exceptional punning.
One time we had a guest lecturer come in who’d done a lot of work for the US Navy and NATO
Somebody asked about the ethics of building weapons for the US and he said “Well, the way I see it there are bad guys out in the world, and we have to protect the innocent people from them.” I probably turned 30% communister that day
"Well, the way I see it there are bad guys out in the world, and we have to protect the innocent people from them.
How kind of him to design the weapons we will use to get rid of capitalists.
I had a group project and the engineer in our group said: “Without the slur users the system would be working perfectly!”
Did I mention it was a project for human machine interfaces and we were also graded on user friendlyness?
I genuinely consider studying CS and being entrenched in the culture and ideological framework that comes with it harmful brain development
Wow just like vibeo geims
imagining a future where this gets artillery striked, gets buried in mud, and is unearthed by some farmer who is then shot ruthlessly and so is everyone else that comes looking for him
it appears that it comes in a version that has a battery, so waiting for some DPRK soldiers in Fursuits sneaking up to it and turning it around and running off like road runner

Pretty sure I heard about these 20 years ago, I think Samsung makes a bunch of the hardware.

That means that it’s gotten better, right?

Thank you, I was kinda scared to read it.
Samsung later sold it all to another company
