OK, now you're pasting the same thing three times because you've thought of one more amazing thing to say. And now you're going to insult my wife? Like you know anything about her? You're a classless piece of shit, APK, you know that? You know nothing about me or my wife, and you're going to try to trash her? You think that makes you look good? She's in the country on an H-1B visa while she's working on her masters in molecular biology, she's working translating medical documents to and from her native language. I met her in the country. She works harder than you ever will, and you want to trash her? That's really sad for you, it's sad that you have to try to bring down people like that who you know nothing about. It shows what kind of person you are. You have no class, at all.
I doubt you have anymore than WELFARE to your FAKE NAME for your FAKE LIFE lol!
Doubt all you want, you no-friend, no-class, piece of shit. My wife and I are doing just fine, I already had to prove to the country that I make enough money that my wife won't be a financial burden on the country if she lives here even if she doesn't work, I don't have to prove it to you, you are nobody. You have no accomplishments, you have no friends, and you prove your piece-of-shit character by trying to trash good people you don't even know. I know who you are because you put your worthless name out there at any opportunity, you don't know shit about me or my wife. You're a piece of shit. Go ahead, copy and paste that post one more time and add the next foaming-at-the-mouth insult that shits out of your brain.
Did you really just copy and paste the post you made 7 minutes earlier, just to add a few more insult lines? And you're accusing me of a foaming-at-the-mouth reacion? You're a funny guy, APK.
Oh, really? IF I am such a 'joke' then WHY can I show I've done FAR MORE than you ever have or will here
Well, first, that list is far less than I've done. And, second, the reason why you're a joke is because that is your list of "accomplishments". Rejected changes, out-of-print magazines, $100 forum posts. That's your life's work, APK, and it's a joke. Just like you.
3 posts of MORE BULLSHIT from you too & STILL NOTHING TO SHOW FOR YOURSELF
It's good to see that your reading comprehension has also not improved at all.
You brought it on yourself starting up with me
Oooh, and look at me, shaking in my little space boots. You're so scary, APK.
keep projecting you're nothing more than a LYING grimy little PIMP
I love your unintentionally funny "insults". I literally laughed at loud at that one.
IF they want to compete w/ the bigboys, they'll need it for background operations
Well, then either they don't want to compete with the big boys, or they just don't like your change. Either way, you should definitely keep that one on your resume, because either of those outcomes totally make you look good. After all, apparently that's the only thing you've done since that $100 forum post in 2008. Yeah way to be current there big guy.
Thanks for all the laughs, APK. It's always funny seeing you thrash around like this.
It's good to see that you haven't changed at all, APK. You're still a sad old man. I guess you want to suck off Ryan Gosling now, so maybe that's a change for you. Good job over the last year, buddy. In my case, I got married, in a few weeks my wife will have her green card and it's back to traveling, my investment account is making a few thousand per month now, things are going well. Sorry you're still the sad old man you've always been. You should really find yourself a friend to go see the movie with, maybe ask your pocket turd if it wants to pay. If you're waiting on a few more $100 forum posts before you can spring for tickets, you know no rush or anything, but you should go check it out, it's a good movie.
But wait, there's more! Since you also want to rehash the old "prove it" discussion, well, again, let me just paste the exact same response the last time you tried to make literally the exact same argument. Here you go buddy:
I've never avoided the question, you just ignore my answer. You're avoiding me, though:
So, to test my theory: do you know what my answer is and always has been? You're either ignorant or stupid
The answer is apparently both. I wasn't expecting that, I thought you were just ignorant.
I am, and will remain, anonymous because I have always meant this account to be anonymous. I have said things under the cover of anonymity which I did not intend to be traced to me personally, in fact that's probably the biggest benefit of anonymity. I'm not going to throw away that protection just for your little pissing contest. I don't have any other accounts here, this is the account where I have posted 100% of my posts. Many of those included information that I do not want to be traced to me, so therefore you're going to have to keep pissing and acting like you're winning some contest. I CAN prove anything I want to you, but I WON'T prove anything. My anonymity is more valuable to me than any stupid contest with you. And it always will be. But, why stop now APK? Go ahead and continue to prove that you are both ignorant as well as stupid and try to get me to prove who I am again, like I ever will. If I would have engaged with you using a different account than my own, then I would have no problem telling you who I am. I don't want various things that I've said to be identified with me though, so that's not going to happen.
your name on it + SOLELY YOUR WORK too!
Oh, really? You mean you don't want me to list an "achievement" where I suggested a few Win32 API calls to someone else's project, but they ended up rejecting my suggestions? Or if I make some efficiency improvements to someone else's project, which then almost wins an award but doesn't, I shouldn't list that either? Because it's not solely my own work, right?
As for all of your other shit, it's ridiculous that you don't think I earn what I earn. Literally ridiculous, as in worthy of ridicule. You are worthy of ridicule. If I showed you what my house or car looked like, you would probably also not believe they're mine. Face it man, I have an education in computer science and I've used it to bring in a steady 6-figure income with full benefits by my mid 30s. I've been contributing to a 401k since my early 20s, you want to guess where that is now? I wrote the software which literally runs the company that I work for (and that was as an intern for them 14 years ago, but it's still running the company today). After the original programmer left I redesigned and rewrote the core customer-facing application from scratch, by myself, and worked on it by myself for at least 3 or 4 years before I got another programmer to help me (this is a completely separate application from the one running the company; this is the one we sell). At this point, as the CTO, that situation is better but my stamp is still on that application and I still work on it, I just have a team to help me now. And there you are approaching your mid 50s, not believing that anything that I have actually done is possible, crowing about all of these stupid little achievements like suggesting Win32 API calls and earning $100 for a forum post like you're some big shot. It's ridiculous. Worthy of ridicule. You are ridiculous. Stop being ridiculous. It's gotten very old and tiresome. I'm sorry if you're not happy with your life, but that isn't going to change by claiming that all of these little stupid things are somehow major meaningful accomplishments. Focus on doing things that will actually make you happy instead of trying to pull up some bullshit list of stupid crap and act like it's made of gold. Make yourself happy, man. I have, that's why I decided to get a degree in computer science and then prog
Ahh, the classics. Well, since we've already had these arguments, if you're going to pull out the same bullshit list of achievements, then I'll just post my same response to it. I'll just change the quote from you, and it also looks like I need to change some year references because, and this is a little embarrassing, but it's been a year since I last posted this and you still don't have any noteworthy achievements. Anyway, here you go:
You're illustrating what I find so funny about you, APK. Look at that list, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001. The only thing you cite since 2001 is a forum post that you got paid $100 for. That's still 8 years ago, you're citing a $100 forum post from 8 years ago, you think that's noteworthy enough to include on your resume. Due to how many times you bring it up, clearly your most valued achievement happened in 2000. That's 17 years ago.
And, are you even going to those links you post, or do you just hope no one will click on them? The first one goes to a page which shows your $100 award, and links to a protected page. Your "article" isn't publicly viewable. Your second link goes to a page asking if I want to buy the domain. Yeah, great reference, man. Make sure you hang onto that one.
UltraDefrag64 Process Priority Control credited by lead dev
Yeah, it's so good that they haven't implemented it, and a follow-up later said that they will never implement it ("The process priority change will never be implemented due to risking an unstable software."). Another great item for your resume, a suggestion you made 7 years ago that got turned down. What was your amazing suggestion? How to make a few Win32 API calls. Truly, that's groundbreaking work.
You apparently have some shareware that got occasionally mentioned in the late 90s, you once wrote a forum post that you got paid $100 for, you made some suggestions which got turned down (and an icon, I don't want to forget the icon and rob you of one of your "achievements"!), and then you wrote a glorified text sorting program which you decided to spam endlessly for some reason. This is your contribution to computing which you think is so shit-hot, you love talking about what a great programmer you are but your achievements over the past decade apparently amount to making HTTP requests, getting a response, sorting some text, and writing a file. This is year 1 computer science work, but that doesn't stop you from repeating over and over how this one time in 2000 you made a contribution to someone else's product which almost won an award at a Microsoft conference. Not your work that almost but didn't win, but their program which you probably contributed to by showing them how to make a few API calls. And you use all of this crap to portray yourself as some genius programmer. It's a giant shit facade APK. You're not fooling anyone other than yourself. Meanwhile, in that time the projects I've worked on have also been submitted for awards. We submitted in a smaller custom software category, and the judges decided to move it into the largest general technology category and then award us a gold. They awarded multiple golds, but we got one of them, and companies like Microsoft, Adobe, Intel, Cisco, etc got silvers and bronzes. But you don't see me shitting all over Slashdot trying to point out stuff like that, and you know why? Because that happened 11 years ago, I've done a lot of stuff since then and I'm not dwelling on all these old awards or whatever focusing on how great I think I am. I'm worried about the work I'm doing now, not what all I've done in the past. But hey man, you keep telling everyone about that time you got paid $100 for a forum post, because that's totally impressive to people who definitely aren't first-year computer science students. Seriously though, if you want to find people who are impressed by your "achievements" then you should really consider becoming a teacher at your local community college. You may actually be able to impress the people who show up for their intr
Um. I was hoping you would, actually. Glad you did. Turns out that when people write messages online, they actually intend for other people to see it. I know, it's weird, but it's true. If you don't want someone to see something, best thing to do is not post it online. Take my name, for example.
you were BOILING over it
Yep, this is me, super pissed. Just sitting here totally steaming. Just angry as hell. Yep, that's me. You can tell by all of the exclamation points and use of ALL CAPS just how much you got to me. Oh wait, that's not me, that's you.
heck, we all do
"We", is that you and the turd in your pocket that you call a friend? Is that who you think writes those other posts, your pocket turd?
APK, you're a joke. You always have been. You have no accomplishments to speak of. The reason I know that is because you've tried. You know nothing about me, and the reason I know that is because I've never given any information.
How do people keep getting the stereotype so wrong? The languages that are being stereotyped (e.g. Japanese) do not have an L sound, they do have an R sound. People replace L sounds with R sounds, not the other way around. It's not even funny in the first place, and when you get it wrong it's just stupid at that point.
APK, it's pathetic that you link to that thread in an attempt to show anything positive about yourself. After I exposed your "achievements" as the bullshit they are I didn't hear another word out of you for nearly a year. Yeah, bring that shit up again man, let's show everyone how you got paid $100 for a forum post that one time in 2008, that was a major achievement. Or, hey, how about you bring up the time where you suggested some Win32 API calls to another project, and they thanked you for your suggestion. But then they ended up not implementing it because of the possible negative effects on performance? How about you call that an "achievement" of yours? Oooh, or how about the time you "contributed" (if you use a very loose definition) to some software project that you weren't actually a team member of, which almost won an award, but didn't? Yeah man, all that shit makes you look really super. I'm glad that you still have that link sitting around in a text document that you've dedicated to me, it saves me the trouble of trying to find it to show how ridiculous you are.
Yeah man, you really "ran me off", didn't you? You're still so pathetic that, even today, you pose as someone other than yourself and refer to yourself in the third person. If you don't have any friends, shit, might as well just act like you're your own friend, right? Pathetic. Keep it up.
Sorry I couldn't get back to you last night, I've actually got things going on in my life. We're launching the next major version of our software for the entire state. No, not in the late 90s, not that one time in 2000, not in 2008, like today, right now. And if I'm not doing that I'm at home with my wife, not arguing on the internet about that time I got $100 for a forum post. But hey, you do you APK.
What, like Rachael? She had a special mod, maybe he did too. She didn't know she was a replicant until he told her. There was that scene where Leto made the obvious suggestion that Deckard was called to Tyrell specifically to meet Rachael. He also obviously wouldn't be the only replicant blade runner. Then there's the question of whether a human/machine hybrid would even be viable (seriously, how would that even work - would the machine just supply the missing chromosomes and let humanity do the rest? Kind of defeats the "uprising" point of it all), versus 2 replicants reproducing (replicants can obviously age/grow hair/etc).
I'll wait for Blade Runner 3: Rise Of The Machines for the answers to my questions.
To me, it's clear this article is just a shitty, deceptive, self-righteous way of stating one's personal observations.
That's a fairly concise way of describing the job of a movie/book/TV critic. If you want to hear someone way too full of themselves, go find a review from NPR's "critic at large".
God forbid a movie should just try to tell a story well instead of going after specific market demographics.
I know what we need. Another comic book/super hero movie. We don't have enough of those, let's set the target demographic first and foremost, then try to figure out what kind of story will appeal to that demographic (I know, "story", haha). We should have a Strong Female Lead(tm) and the exact same percentage of minority characters as there are people in California. Then let's cover our shit wagon with enough special effects that people can't tell how shitty the product actually is. Special effects, it's like hops, but for movies. Then let's spend half the total budget on marketing, and license our valuable IP(tm) out to anything and everything.
But if Facebook already has a product that requires no cost, why would they pay them? Facebook gets their product for free, other than the engineering work they do, they have no reason to spend money to get the product at this point.
This Steemit, on the other hand, is something else entirely. It renders completely moot the question of wondering who the attention seekers are, versus who are just the paid shills. Now you know it's everybody! Everybody is seeking attention, and they're all paid. When there's a profit motive for literally every single post, then you realize that you don't need to pay attention to any of it. I guess it's good for whatever size the group of users is who want to be involved in something like that, but for everyone else hopefully it will concentrate those kinds of personalities in one place and have the effect of clearing up cruft in other places.
Unfortunately my OnePlus 3 has recently spent an hour in a hot tub, and isn't working very well any more - won't hold any charge but does still work otherwise.
That sounds like an awful phone, especially if you couldn't download another messaging app or whatever else. That sounds like a company to stay away from. If you're in the market check OnePlus to see what they have to offer. They also sell all kinds of accessories if you need additional protection for the phone.
Samsung tends to have the most hardware and software packed into the thing
When I say "on par" I mean my phone is comparable to Samsung's top devices, not that it's exactly the same. You're welcome to compare the specifications yourself between the OnePlus 5 and recent Samsung and iPhone models.
Samsung's practically the only one that has MST
Mountain Standard Time? Multisystemic Therapy? Military Sexual Trauma?
I find it odd that the first option you jumped to was remove all the 'ranches' and put all the cows in a warehouse. That is a very peculiar thought process...
You didn't notice the sarcastic tone? Obviously large open land ranches are better for raising big livestock than the kind of factory farming that goes on in the US, that's the point. The point is that we can use technology to help manage those things rather than just cramming all the animals into a building like people decide to do in the US.
I doubt you can prevent the eagles from attacking, changing the behavior that the eagles have learned over millions of years probably isn't going to work. Hopefully the attacks could either be made ineffective, or at least non-fatal to the drone.
I bought a OnePlus One the month it went on sale and switched to the OnePlus 5 with a total of 0 problems. So, obviously mileage may vary.
Although, due to the fact that I'm an idiot, I did set up an RMA with OnePlus to return and repair the phone (when it didn't actually need anything). That process went fine before I figured out that nothing was broken.
I don't understand how you got to the conclusion that Samsung is the only choice. I'm using a phone that is on par with recent Samsung and Apple phones, and it is not made by Samsung. See the link above.
Actually, that's exactly what I'd be saying about these cheap drones that can't survive a bird-strike.
MQ-1's don't get taken down by eagles.
Haha, I don't think they would, right. But now you've gone from an $80,000 drone to a $4 million drone. You can buy 50 of the cheaper ones for that price. And I imagine that the piloting hardware and operating costs for a Predator are just a bit higher than for the professional photography drones. Not to mention anything about the grand facilities, you can't exactly get in your pickup truck, drive out to wherever you're needed, and launch a Predator.
Yeah, it's a good thing that Australia isn't full of livestock ranches that are thousands of square kilometers.
Oh wait, it is. And I bet those people will stop caring about eagles if the price of their beef goes up.
People like ranchers and miners use drones to survey large areas of land. They can map their property in a couple days and locate every herd. I guess one solution is to get rid of the big open ranches and just cram all the animals into warehouses, that would be better right? That way everyone always knows where their animals are. Or maybe there's a solution that allows the managers to use drones for photography without a bunch of idiots shouting at them for doing so. There's nothing wrong with flying a drone to survey your land. Maybe just a parachute/GPS pinger that would deploy and activate if a gyroscope detects it's in a spin or something like that. I'm sure that the vast majority of the damage comes from impact with the ground.
That was my first impression too. Sure, they have the wasteland aspect down, but aside from the view Dubai is nothing like Mars. The 6 people who just came out of the simulation in Hawaii had a pretty nice setup. On the top of a mountain (slightly thinner atmosphere, even though still much thicker than Mars), volcanic topography (rocks and dirt everywhere - just like Mars), and it's high enough that the temperature gets low enough to snow. I'm sure that northern Canada or Alaska has some suitably rocky terrain also. Iceland is another place that comes to mind. Even parts of Patagonia or Chile would be more realistic than a desert.
Dubai is just looking for another tourist attraction for whenever they revert back to an economy not based on oil. It won't last forever.

Not your work that almost but didn't win, but their program which you probably contributed to by showing them how to make a few API calls. And you use all of this crap to portray yourself as some genius programmer. It's a giant shit facade APK. You're not fooling anyone other than yourself. Meanwhile, in that time the projects I've worked on have also been submitted for awards. We submitted in a smaller custom software category, and the judges decided to move it into the largest general technology category and then award us a gold. They awarded multiple golds, but we got one of them, and companies like Microsoft, Adobe, Intel, Cisco, etc got silvers and bronzes. But you don't see me shitting all over Slashdot trying to point out stuff like that, and you know why? Because that happened 11 years ago, I've done a lot of stuff since then and I'm not dwelling on all these old awards or whatever focusing on how great I think I am. I'm worried about the work I'm doing now, not what all I've done in the past. But hey man, you keep telling everyone about that time you got paid $100 for a forum post, because that's totally impressive to people who definitely aren't first-year computer science students. Seriously though, if you want to find people who are impressed by your "achievements" then you should really consider becoming a teacher at your local community college. You may actually be able to impress the people who show up for their intr
thinking I wouldn't see it?
Um. I was hoping you would, actually. Glad you did. Turns out that when people write messages online, they actually intend for other people to see it. I know, it's weird, but it's true. If you don't want someone to see something, best thing to do is not post it online. Take my name, for example.
you were BOILING over it
Yep, this is me, super pissed. Just sitting here totally steaming. Just angry as hell. Yep, that's me. You can tell by all of the exclamation points and use of ALL CAPS just how much you got to me. Oh wait, that's not me, that's you.
heck, we all do
"We", is that you and the turd in your pocket that you call a friend? Is that who you think writes those other posts, your pocket turd?
APK, you're a joke. You always have been. You have no accomplishments to speak of. The reason I know that is because you've tried. You know nothing about me, and the reason I know that is because I've never given any information.
I also enjoy the irony of you continuing attempting to get me to tell you who I am, in the exact same thread where you actually linked to the post where I tried to get it through your thick skull why I'm still anonymous here. I just want you to know that I see the irony, I see what you did there. It's kind of funny, in your special retarded way.
How do people keep getting the stereotype so wrong? The languages that are being stereotyped (e.g. Japanese) do not have an L sound, they do have an R sound. People replace L sounds with R sounds, not the other way around. It's not even funny in the first place, and when you get it wrong it's just stupid at that point.
APK, it's pathetic that you link to that thread in an attempt to show anything positive about yourself. After I exposed your "achievements" as the bullshit they are I didn't hear another word out of you for nearly a year. Yeah, bring that shit up again man, let's show everyone how you got paid $100 for a forum post that one time in 2008, that was a major achievement. Or, hey, how about you bring up the time where you suggested some Win32 API calls to another project, and they thanked you for your suggestion. But then they ended up not implementing it because of the possible negative effects on performance? How about you call that an "achievement" of yours? Oooh, or how about the time you "contributed" (if you use a very loose definition) to some software project that you weren't actually a team member of, which almost won an award, but didn't? Yeah man, all that shit makes you look really super. I'm glad that you still have that link sitting around in a text document that you've dedicated to me, it saves me the trouble of trying to find it to show how ridiculous you are.
Yeah man, you really "ran me off", didn't you? You're still so pathetic that, even today, you pose as someone other than yourself and refer to yourself in the third person. If you don't have any friends, shit, might as well just act like you're your own friend, right? Pathetic. Keep it up.
Sorry I couldn't get back to you last night, I've actually got things going on in my life. We're launching the next major version of our software for the entire state. No, not in the late 90s, not that one time in 2000, not in 2008, like today, right now. And if I'm not doing that I'm at home with my wife, not arguing on the internet about that time I got $100 for a forum post. But hey, you do you APK.
as he would have been a N7 model
What, like Rachael? She had a special mod, maybe he did too. She didn't know she was a replicant until he told her. There was that scene where Leto made the obvious suggestion that Deckard was called to Tyrell specifically to meet Rachael. He also obviously wouldn't be the only replicant blade runner. Then there's the question of whether a human/machine hybrid would even be viable (seriously, how would that even work - would the machine just supply the missing chromosomes and let humanity do the rest? Kind of defeats the "uprising" point of it all), versus 2 replicants reproducing (replicants can obviously age/grow hair/etc).
I'll wait for Blade Runner 3: Rise Of The Machines for the answers to my questions.
Ryan Gosling isn't going to fuck you, APK.
To me, it's clear this article is just a shitty, deceptive, self-righteous way of stating one's personal observations.
That's a fairly concise way of describing the job of a movie/book/TV critic. If you want to hear someone way too full of themselves, go find a review from NPR's "critic at large".
the sheer noise
*BWOOOOOOOOOW*
God forbid a movie should just try to tell a story well instead of going after specific market demographics.
I know what we need. Another comic book/super hero movie. We don't have enough of those, let's set the target demographic first and foremost, then try to figure out what kind of story will appeal to that demographic (I know, "story", haha). We should have a Strong Female Lead(tm) and the exact same percentage of minority characters as there are people in California. Then let's cover our shit wagon with enough special effects that people can't tell how shitty the product actually is. Special effects, it's like hops, but for movies. Then let's spend half the total budget on marketing, and license our valuable IP(tm) out to anything and everything.
But if Facebook already has a product that requires no cost, why would they pay them? Facebook gets their product for free, other than the engineering work they do, they have no reason to spend money to get the product at this point.
This Steemit, on the other hand, is something else entirely. It renders completely moot the question of wondering who the attention seekers are, versus who are just the paid shills. Now you know it's everybody! Everybody is seeking attention, and they're all paid. When there's a profit motive for literally every single post, then you realize that you don't need to pay attention to any of it. I guess it's good for whatever size the group of users is who want to be involved in something like that, but for everyone else hopefully it will concentrate those kinds of personalities in one place and have the effect of clearing up cruft in other places.
Unfortunately my OnePlus 3 has recently spent an hour in a hot tub, and isn't working very well any more - won't hold any charge but does still work otherwise.
So, a typical hot tub experience then.
That sounds like an awful phone, especially if you couldn't download another messaging app or whatever else. That sounds like a company to stay away from. If you're in the market check OnePlus to see what they have to offer. They also sell all kinds of accessories if you need additional protection for the phone.
Samsung tends to have the most hardware and software packed into the thing
When I say "on par" I mean my phone is comparable to Samsung's top devices, not that it's exactly the same. You're welcome to compare the specifications yourself between the OnePlus 5 and recent Samsung and iPhone models.
Samsung's practically the only one that has MST
Mountain Standard Time? Multisystemic Therapy? Military Sexual Trauma?
I find it odd that the first option you jumped to was remove all the 'ranches' and put all the cows in a warehouse. That is a very peculiar thought process...
You didn't notice the sarcastic tone? Obviously large open land ranches are better for raising big livestock than the kind of factory farming that goes on in the US, that's the point. The point is that we can use technology to help manage those things rather than just cramming all the animals into a building like people decide to do in the US.
I doubt you can prevent the eagles from attacking, changing the behavior that the eagles have learned over millions of years probably isn't going to work. Hopefully the attacks could either be made ineffective, or at least non-fatal to the drone.
I bought a OnePlus One the month it went on sale and switched to the OnePlus 5 with a total of 0 problems. So, obviously mileage may vary.
Although, due to the fact that I'm an idiot, I did set up an RMA with OnePlus to return and repair the phone (when it didn't actually need anything). That process went fine before I figured out that nothing was broken.
I don't understand how you got to the conclusion that Samsung is the only choice. I'm using a phone that is on par with recent Samsung and Apple phones, and it is not made by Samsung. See the link above.
Because Samsung and Apple are the only 2 manufacturers, right?
Here you go, $479.
Actually, that's exactly what I'd be saying about these cheap drones that can't survive a bird-strike.
MQ-1's don't get taken down by eagles.
Haha, I don't think they would, right. But now you've gone from an $80,000 drone to a $4 million drone. You can buy 50 of the cheaper ones for that price. And I imagine that the piloting hardware and operating costs for a Predator are just a bit higher than for the professional photography drones. Not to mention anything about the grand facilities, you can't exactly get in your pickup truck, drive out to wherever you're needed, and launch a Predator.
Yeah, it's a good thing that Australia isn't full of livestock ranches that are thousands of square kilometers.
Oh wait, it is. And I bet those people will stop caring about eagles if the price of their beef goes up.
People like ranchers and miners use drones to survey large areas of land. They can map their property in a couple days and locate every herd. I guess one solution is to get rid of the big open ranches and just cram all the animals into warehouses, that would be better right? That way everyone always knows where their animals are. Or maybe there's a solution that allows the managers to use drones for photography without a bunch of idiots shouting at them for doing so. There's nothing wrong with flying a drone to survey your land. Maybe just a parachute/GPS pinger that would deploy and activate if a gyroscope detects it's in a spin or something like that. I'm sure that the vast majority of the damage comes from impact with the ground.
That was my first impression too. Sure, they have the wasteland aspect down, but aside from the view Dubai is nothing like Mars. The 6 people who just came out of the simulation in Hawaii had a pretty nice setup. On the top of a mountain (slightly thinner atmosphere, even though still much thicker than Mars), volcanic topography (rocks and dirt everywhere - just like Mars), and it's high enough that the temperature gets low enough to snow. I'm sure that northern Canada or Alaska has some suitably rocky terrain also. Iceland is another place that comes to mind. Even parts of Patagonia or Chile would be more realistic than a desert.
Dubai is just looking for another tourist attraction for whenever they revert back to an economy not based on oil. It won't last forever.
