easy - put in one of those revolving doors on the shuttle train and lock it so people can only go in the one direction (backwards) when there is no more room near the doors on the primary train. you could also calculate the "room on the train" by counting the volume of passengers as they pass through the revolving doors and leave a bit of extra room, and/or using cameras inside the train
according to the article they are meant to replace the officers, not act as additional staff. unless there are more robots then staff, this is not faster then if an officer walked by and responded immediately
ok, I understand that the police officers are lazy, and that the robots will alert the officers if there is a problem but think of the effects of this. If a inmate gets stabbed by another inmate and is bleeding profusely the robot has to alert the police officer and the officer needs to put down his donut and come down to that location ASAP. In a critical situation such as this time is of the essence and a few seconds, never-mind minutes, can be the difference between life and death. Using robot patrols allows the inmates to do more damage before the officer arrives and they are restrained
CSS3 will soon eliminate the need for rounded corner images and gradient backgrounds, and even smartphone bandwidth is increasing to reasonable speeds. Most ads these days are displayed with flash, and the quality of thumbnail images really isn't that important either

they are hardly overlords. They are being modified to die faster, not modified to kill.

yea, right, those would never be abused by the inmates.

some Google hate on Slashdot! I thought this day would never come.
was I the only one who thought "SourceForge" before thinking "SciFi"?

...don't say anything at all.
I won't say I disagree with Stallman, but times of grieving are definitely one of those times where this rule applies.
