1. There are no autonomous killer robots.
2. No drone self destructs if it loses contact.

That helicopter was destroyed by people.

Sounds great. Make sure you turn that robot on manually, so you're, you know, the first human it sees.

I hope that was just an attempt at being funny. You are surrounded by sources of radiation, from your TV, to bananas, to granite, to other people, to glow-in-the-dark stuff, and on and on.

Are you suggesting Joe is his full name?

Maybe he just wanted to see some BOOBIES.

The Hacker and the Ants. Yes, if you overlook the many glaring differences, you might notice some passing similarities.

Let me just say, and I think I speak for everyone on Slashdot, change your damn socks already!

Replying again, I looked up .org in wikipedia and it says nothing about it being global. If you have a source for your statement that .org site is global and should not contain US centric content, please post it.

Strange then that I've lived nearly my whole life in the US and can't remember ever going to a .us site. Slashdot is run out of the US with American editors. It uses American units and American lexicon (color instead of colour, etc). It's not going to have every unit for every country, ever release date for every movie, or every lexicon to appease the global audience. Get over it. This has nothing to do with taking criticism or behaving like a strop, whatever the fuck that is.

And when the trees move back and forth, that's what causes the wind.

Why do you go to an American website and complain that it focuses on America? If it bothers you that much, go to a website hosted in your own country.

On Mythbusters, you say?

Indeed. One does not simply walk into a field of mones. Be careful!

Not the stuffed tiger, the other one.

The Global Hawk is the size of a 747. The Ion Tiger is a small lightweight drone with a 17" wingspan. And the Phantom Eye is large at 150" wingspan, but also described as lightweight. Comparing flight duration seems a bit unfair. Anyone have a better idea how to properly compare efficiency of engines?
