This was very funny.
The machine looks like a naval Phalanx CIWS gun turret but is really made
from a chicken smoker? It seems kind of top heavy and prone to tipping over.
My first thought was that people could just push it over like tipping a cow.
But then I thought, smarter bad guys would jam or hack his radio comms to
disable or take control of the robot. Maybe the designer has considered this?
