Tech: Robot flame thrower

Wired tells us that there is such a thing as a robot dog flame thrower. Yes, this is for real— there’s a picture at the link. It is also legal in 48 states. Only Maryland, which required federal firearm license, and California, which limits flame throwers to 10 feet, restrict the robot dog flame thrower.  The robot dog shoots flames by bluetooth up to 30 feet. Clearly just what the world needed, their parents must be so proud of this “invention.”
