Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Automated porch turrets with facial recognition software. You can set down a box no problem but if you pick one up... Hoo boy, welcome to the future motherfucker.
"Please put down the package. You have twenty seconds to comply."
Twenty seconds is a long time if you're running.
"Tranquilizer deployed. If you are a valid box picker upper, drink your antidote verification can or you will be packaged for quick police pickup in about 12 - 96 hours."
Version 1 will have an infinite loop because no one remembered to give the police antidote verification cans for when they arrive to pick up the thief boxes.
"You have twenty seconds to comply" is a reference to ED-209 from RoboCop.
I've thought about this, but like with water guns loaded with concentrated liquid stink
