Cars To Be Assembled Atom By Atom
Roland Piquepaille writes "In a new article, the Detroit News says that the adoption of nanotechnology by car manufacturers will produce safer, lighter and cheaper vehicles. While GM is already using nanocomposite materials for several vans, Ford is developing new nanoengineered catalysts to replace platinum. The newspaper gives other examples, such as auto-adaptive suspension systems, scratch-resistant paints or nanocoated windshields which will not crack. In fact, all parts in a car can be improved by using nanotechnology, according to the article. And if automakers are only going to introduce limited amounts of nanotechnology-related products in the next few years, their usage should be widespread within ten years. More details are available in this overview."
either learn to drive, or dont get the safer windshields. jesus, you fucking moron.
IF i slip on a bar of soap and die, then having soap isnt a good idea.
take a fucking guess.
what use is a small, lightweight, fast computer compared to a heavy, huge, expensive, slow computer?
oh thats right.. nothing at all, how stupid of us all.
what the fuck do you think? and somehow i think by the time we can build a car atom by atom we might somehow have come up with a way of running a car on something other than fossil fuels. no wait, thats a stupid assumption to make, i take that back.
and for fucks sake, stop with this oil shit, human life wont be screwed when we run out of oil, we lived perfectly fucking fine without it, im sick of you paranoid dumbass technoweenies who take everything they get told as the truth. its people like you who end up voting people like bush into presidency. people like you who would release serial killers from jail because they say it "wasnt me". grow a fucking brain, moron.
somehow i doubt companies will ship nanobuilders to peoples houses to let them build their own car... something tells me that would be a pretty FUCKING STUPID thing to do.. or even think about. theyll keep the nanobuilders in the fucking car factory and sell cars as usual. where the fuck do you get ideas like this? seriously. people can be so stupid.
and since when can "dirt-poor" people afford computers. and what makes you think "dirt-poor" people have anything to give after being sued?
your stupidity really astounds me. were you born with it or did you somehow learn it?
ok, but how long ago was that and how prosperous was the world - esp. the US - back then? look around you, how many things with no connection to oil at all can you see?
silly cow. turn your brain in and ask for a refund if you don't use it.
I hope I didn't brain my damage.
He said they were safer for the driver. If you're stupid enough to be driving a subcompact car on a highway then you deserve to die. Nothing like the sound of a lame ass Toyota Prius as I drive over it in my Suburban.
