  1. They can. Many new planes can now fly autonomous. Qantas has done at least one complete flight.

  2. Re:Third party application. on Vista Hackers Get Busy · · Score: 1

    So what this is saying is that if I go buy a brand new car and replace the windows with flyscreens I can blame the car manufacturer when the car gets broken into ?

  3. Re:Using "nanotechnology" to dye your hair... on Nanocosmetics Used Since Ancient Egypt · · Score: 1

    I seem to remember that a considerable chunk of the roman empire collapsed due to lead poisoning ? Originally blamed on the lead pipes but perhaps it was the nanotechnology?

    I have had http://www.targus.com/us/product_details.asp?sku=C DB1 bag for several years. It has been around the world with me several times (snow ice heat americans) and outlasted 3 laptops (due to age not misadventure). The only wear is slight wearing of the edges not a single seam has come loose. I really really recommend this case.
