When I was a child I thought the RC-XD was the most ridiculous contraption I had ever heard of. Tons of shit turned out to become real I thought was stupid

Here's the kicker: A ton of things that are actually are stupid do actually turn into stupid products. "As Seen on TV" being the primary source of those things...

Innovation is probably one of the best, and worst, features of war. Simple concepts that do not have any other place in society could save, or cost, thousands of lives. It's weird.

This idea of remote controlled cars shuttling explosives is not new. There were probably Allied versions, but the German version of such a thing was the Goliath. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goliath_tracked_mine

ETA: They're called: Cybran T2 Mobile Bomb a.k.a. Fire Beetle

As a local moron, it looks like something people like myself, or, myself, would think would be cool to try and catch.

It keeps the streets clean both literally AND metaphorically!

It can boot if it's low quality.

This has the same energy as the knife wielding tentacle. If anyone would like to come over and disable it, they'd be more than welcome.

Isn't there a manga with this, I think it is called "Kindergarten Wars" in the latest chapters
