It's to be stealthy during day

A rifle scope that can see through walls.

BombOmOm@lemmy.world · 76 pts · 2y (1 reply)

It does this by 'inverting' what can be seen through.

It can't see through air.

You can see through more than walls, you can see through everything! ...so all you can see is the empty void

Chadus_Maximus@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 2y

Granted. The scope can see though a wall after you penetrate it with bullets (the wall, not the scope).

A weapon system that spreads peace, love, and freedom indiscriminately.

NaibofTabr@infosec.pub · 25 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Indiscriminately across all of space and time... which is mostly empty.

A sword that appears in your hand whenever you need it, and then disappears again when you don't.

EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works · 23 pts · 2y (2 replies)

In appears IN your hand, ripping your muscles and tearing your skin

Your hand ends up looking like you played with super glue and fireworks

Also, you can only summon it twice before you run out of hands

NaibofTabr@infosec.pub · 16 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Heh, also you don't "summon" it... it appears whenever you need it.

Honytawk@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 2y

*whenever it thinks you need it.

Like when you want to spread mayonnaise making a sandwich and can't find a knife.

It appears while being held by the blade.

"Half swording" I think is the term you are looking for

Also there's oberhau, where you grab the blade with both hands and beat your opponent to death with the crossguard like a giant hammer

It’s a plug in hybrid and silent like a Prius under 5mph.

It uses a standard US household wall plug (hard wired to the vehicle), and is extremely loud above 5mph.

The gauntlet is also metal, and gets attracted to your hand squeezing it until it breaks your bones every time you use it.

It can pierce through any armor.

ampedwolfman@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 2y

But only if no one is wearing it.

But only the armor. Bullet passes through helmet, stops when it hits skull.

Dima, Ivan, I need weapon from you that only hurts bad guys!

MashedTech@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 2y

The device fails because moral relativism (as discussed by philosophers like Gilbert Harman) and the complexity of ethical theories (such as utilitarianism by John Stuart Mill and deontology by Immanuel Kant) make it impossible for a machine to accurately judge "bad" actions or intentions, given the deep subjectivity and cultural variance in ethics.

Quantum Tunneling Neutron Cluster Railgun capable of assassinating a target from the opposite side of the earth at slightly less than the speed of light.

SolOrion@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Main problem is nobody made optics that can see to the opposite side of the planet. Personally, I think we should just take the direct route and fire it through the planet but the egghead sciency types keep complaining about "destabilizing the earths crust". Whatever that means.

FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

That's actually not a bad downside, it still pierces literally any armor if you can guess the distance and point it at the target by sight. I'll take 5,000 for $6.4 Million each, send the invoice to Congress.

Imagine taking shots in the dark at the Kremlin and exploding random furniture and windows. Putin: "That's the third time this week, we have to move offices around again."

Aliens already have that technology, and they're determined to prevent any other species from developing it. They zap your prototype and research facility from orbit.
