You are absolutely correct. You can have the windows and use heads up displays, or "helmet" mounted displays (Google Glass?) supplement additional information.

As a pilot, I can think of nothing more idiotic than to get rid of the front wind screens/canopies/windshields whatever you want to call them.

Because INS, "Homeland" Security (What a freaking Totalitarian sounding name), and the TSA are doing such a bang up job.

Dickheads like you are the ones shutting down Lemonade stands run by six year olds because they don't "meet regulations".

I cooled my 24 hundred sq ft, two story house in Texas for about $120 last month. That's with the damned kids setting the thermostat upstairs to 76.

These companies would be more than willing to throw money away if they can plaster "We're Green" on all their prospectus papers and advertisements.

So...you mean it has to be subsidized.

Yep, I don't find his story credible.

Everyone knows that the Police would have just beaten his ass half to death and then claim he assaulted a police officer. Probably by putting his head in the way of the cop's fist.

It's pretty much like stirring shit in the toilet. No matter how hard or what direction you stir, how big or small the turds are, it's still shit.

Point to AC Grammar Nazi.

Noted and filed for future reference.

Thanks.

So forget Pew. Just look at the latest propaganda from the gun grabbers. Not being able to win the argument of more guns = more crime, they are now turning to more guns = more suicides.

Regardless, Drunk Drivers account for a large number of highway accidents and that definitely is the same as shooting someone.

And all your other astroturfed AC comments.

I think I probably speak for many on Slashdot when I say, Fuck You

No, he's right.

SWAT is out of control and needs some serious reigning in. They should be limited to being deployed only where there is solid information that a suspect is armed and dangerous. Addresses should be checked by no less than three people...one on the team, the team supervisor, and upper level supervision. Targets should be observed and confirmed to be present and all attempts made to apprehend them outside of residences.

Further, team members should be criminally and civilly liable for the injury and deaths of innocents at their hand.

Too many innocent people are being killed and maimed by SWAT raids, too many SWAT raids are occurring, and too many times there is no repercussion for fucking things up and blowing a hole in little kid's chest.

If, during an interaction between law enforcement and the public, someone dies, the best option is that it's the bad guy killed by a cop. Second best option is it's a cop killed by a bad guy, the worst option and one that should be avoided at all costs, even the cost of the life of a cop, is an innocent civilian being killed by a cop.

You can't have representatives of the State killing innocents and then just saying "Whoops, my bad" and then throwing money at the family.

Can they compel you to unlock a safe? A safe Deposit box? While authorities can get into these without your help, what if they couldn't?

Electronic information is directly analogous to paper. Information is information regardless of how its stored.

There is an inverse relationship between claims of intelligence and actual intelligence.

How about iPads and other tablet devices that aren't phones but are likely to hold even more personal data than a phone does?
