Google "paypal sucks"

Now, I'm not trying to defend PayPal by anymeans, but If you google that you get 11.4 million results, however if you google "paypal is the best" you get 1.22 billion results, thats a 93% happy ratio, so using that logic isn't good argument to make in this case.

"The person who decided to share the movie illegally was tracked down"

Well, not exactly... the person who first uploaded it was tracked down, not the person who first stole it, copy it, and give it to the Koreans to sell on the street.

Seems the person to first share it is still out there...

resisting arrest is what you are charged with when being arrested for committing another crime of which you were arrested for in the first place. being convicted of resisting arrest is something that happens after the initial arrest (the one that you resisted)

Yes, robots would cost more than simply installing more cameras. But for shits and giggles, lets say the prison now breaks out in a massive riot. how hard would it be to simply strap a few cans of tear gas, pepper spray, whatever non-leathal means of stopping the riot, to the robot, roll it on in the room(s) and deploy the gas.

Now after the first use like this, now I v2.0 of the robot with an internal cylinder of said gas, with a nozel that leads out the front of the robot, and a guard sitting behind a monitoring station with his finger over the spray button.

This is just a stepping stone to having robots fully capable of stopping potential violence without putting human guards in harms way.

Guess this is the end for "Big Brother" since it will be in every home soon enough....

no no, the film was entitiled "Braille -- Bump Bump Bump"

haha, as soon as i seen the name Contra, all i could think was "up up down down left right left right a b select start"

is one of my despair posters, "Procrastination... Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now"

"GM's Volt will follow the same path if it suceeds, or else be a giant waste of money if it fails (like EV1 was)."

I would just like to point out that the EV1 didn't fail, it was killed. There was a number of factors that played against that car from the begining. If you take a look back a few years, you will see the original Volt design was very similar to the EV1. The Volt was designed to run purely on electricity with no gas engine. When I first read that I was as astounded that GM actually released that information. Then, if you notice in the press, there was no more mention of the Volt until it was redesigned with the hybrid engine.

The EV1 was a great design for short distance commutes. The original Volt design was a vast improvement over the EV1 which would have allowed for long distance travel. Why did they go and put a gas engine in it now? I'd like to see a press release describing that reasoning.

Now before anyone goes and tries to say that im simply paraphrasing the documentry "Who Killed the Electric Car", don't get me wrong, that was a real eye opener. But like any documentry, there is always a bias side to the person telling the tale. So for those of you who have seen it, think of it this way... if even a third of what they stated in that documenty was true, then its a very scary thought of the power that oil companies, politians and big business have at crushing any new ideas that threaten the "old" way of doing things.

Atari ST... thats bringing back memories, i still remember my first computer which was a Atari 800-XL -- ah the good old days.

I started to do a series of "There, fixed that for you" replies based on the comments made. However, there were far too many spelling and gramatical errors for me to continue.

I'm curious if he can hit a self destruct button and have the car split into the motorcycle!

but according to slashdot, babies think robots are people. thats got to count for something
