What kind of useless can’t-get-work-anywhere-else fuckwad engineers design this shit? Flock not hiring anymore?

Seems there's a huge market in authoritarian sadists. Capitalists & fascists are creaming themselves on either side of it.

Me when I was 14 and trying to save the world with shit I could buy on alibaba literally decades ago.

Turns out grappling hooks are really hard and the rocket skates only worked with solid fuel, which was slightly problematic from a use case perspective and I have no idea how I'm alive.

Gonna be a fun time to wear conductive outer layers of clothing. I wonder how good these gloves' sort circuit protection is...

What dystopian sci-fi story did this idea come from?

Looking forward to the officers accidentally shocking their nuts when they scratch their balls

Why am I laughing at this? Is it because reality has become so ridiculously like a dark graphic novel?

Now we’re going to get grope-shocked by idiots who probably shock themselves before they get their hands on us.
