Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Get the Super Soakers ready, and fill them with saltwater!

Electronics really don't like saltwater...

Nah, you'll want some electromagnets and Faraday cages to disable them. Salt water is too easy to protect against.

I think bullets would work fine

This assumes your reactions are better than a machine. You need something that disables the machine passively.
