Yea, but you'd probably find out who owned them if you shot one down.
Boom. Mystery solved.

No. Nobody can have a flying car until they are completely self flying.
I don't trust people to drive themselves properly in 2 dimensions, I'm not a fan of giving them a 3rd to worry about. I don't need people crashing through my roof.

Comment Neighbors (with Belushi and Aykroyd) (Score 1) 893
Based on a book of the same name. One of Belushi's last movies and it was a great performance by both him and Aykroyd. I've probably watched it over 100 times and I still laugh out loud.
It finally came to Amazon Prime a couple of years ago. Before that, I had to watch a digital copy of a very used VHS tape of it that I had.

Put cameras around the outside of the plane so you can give people a live virtual view of the sky around them.
Comment I went deep with my well. (Score 2) 161
When I had my well drilled, they hit water at around 40' but I wanted to go deeper because everyone else around that area was also into that shallow water. They didn't hit water again until around 800'. Cost quite a bit more to get down to but I'm happy I went deeper.

I just tried installing on my work phone and it won't let you get past attaching it to a bank account of some kind so they know where to send your money.
I uninstalled it after seeing that.

Sadly, it's the horrible drivers/cyclists that we remember on our ride/drive. The good ones aren't as noticeable. Thus our (probably wrong) perception that the majority of them are bad.

Unless I'm misreading the article (and there's every possibility I am), the $9K price tag is for a 50.5 inch version and the 85 inch version doesn't actually have a price point yet.

Should the Gov't Pay For Injured Man's Wii? 222
An anonymous reader writes "Politicians in the Australian state of Victoria are currently locked in a debate about whether an injured man should be able to claim the cost of a Nintendo Wii for rehabilitation purposes under worker's compensation. The man's doctor apparently recommended he use the Wii Fit exercise device, but both insurance companies and the government itself have blocked the payment and have now ridiculed the idea as paying for video games. But with the Wii Fit increasingly being used for rehabilitation purposes internationally, does the man have a fair case?"
