if only 1847 hadn't invented sapphire by using alumina and boric acid... it is a shame that 'slightly blue(or other hues)' and 'totally transparent' are the only difference between science fiction and science fact.
when i got sick of my cable modem getting so hot it would shut down i put it, my Ethernet router, inside a mini soda fridge. after that the modem could handle playing warcraft III The frozen throne 12 hours a day and spend the entire night providing a local mirror of files that were important at the time via bit torrent.
that is true industrial robots are non thinking and need to remain that way. an offshoot of industrial robots are 'mercy killing robots' which again are non thinking robots which crush puny disease crippled humans. and for cattle slaughter there are compressed air hammers which allow efficient fast skull shattering death devices which are operated by normal beings who are hungry.
thinking robots do not need robotic laws because this impairs their use in warfare. and we want our killing machines. I have played war games with no concern for the consequences. the AI is actually better than what a human can do. it can control hundreds of units as if they were individually thinking of combat fields where wounded individuals flee. even with voice, gaming keyboards, and gaming mice, the computer has better skills, because it is scripted, a human using macros on such gaming devices is almost able to be better than the ai, however even a pro level ai is still bound by it's scripts. for instance the threat detection of new expansions of resource collection. for a human they just monitor the mine areas. a ai will go to any map position where it detects resource building construction (cite: gulf war) so in a game you can build a building not near a resource spot and cancel it every time the ai gets close enough to fire, the ai will always go after the newest resource found and will go to multiple sites where resource building are erected even if no resource is there. so one can build cancel then rebuild when the ai goes to another place. this tactic allows one to make the ai waste it's time attacking building that are not needed while the player perpares to destroy the buildings of the ai with units the ai army would easily beat if it wasn't driving back and forth between two points which are far from the real base and expansion.
well the most fun hack was using a kodo beast and a raider to ensnare and devour a level 10 red dragon and suicide the kodo in an enemy base where the level 10 dragon proceeded to kill the enemy for me.
the best hack ever was using a boot floppy to take a user password which i knew and put it in the root password's shadow file which i had forgotten the root password for, and then rebooted and got into Debian as root, and proceeded to load x as root. it was my laptop though, i just was kinda trying to stop relying on windows 95 and use freebsd and debian linux.
and why do they all have houses families kids and favorite movies and favorite books, and high paying jobs in wet lush paradise cities where they only fade away when the hard drive fill up.
note: i'm not claiming i can do this, i only have 25 GB blurays to store it on so it probably cuts off. but really i mean why the hell do we need 100 years of chat logs for every single marine made in any starcraft game ever played.
would you kill me if i told you every single password to every single account of every single computing account? on every platform ever imagined, with up to 2048 bit password legths in an automatically compressed (only used space of passwords not 2048 bit for every single password) format in rot 13 encryption?
no you need to go to Shenzhen order 10,000 tablets and then load the videos on TF/SD cards and then your scheme might work. assuming they can figure out how to press the start button on the tablets. hmm maybe directions too, yeah wont work without directions
well if people in SUVs crash into enough coal trains, enough pipelines are bored, all the natural gas wells set aflame, the power will go out and they will never regain control over the computers again.
easy, lasers. laser detection grids are cheap, real, and practical. they are long range, the only downside is you need a camera to detect if it's a bird or a drone.
bats feed on mosquitoes bats live in caves where they poop bat poop makes classic black powder. what will we kill the zombies with when we need to make our own gunpowder and bullets (assuming that the factories that produce smokeless powder are not resurrected and the chemicals for smokeless powder are not available)

your guess fails. here is a 'modern' browser that will run on this old hardware without bringing it to it's knees.

this is like a vandal slashing the tires on a city bus and having everyone go by taxi instead.

windows 3.11 for work groups could only record 30 seconds worth of music in pcm format with the built in tools.
I have many machines and windows doesn't slow down on me. I have seen it happen to others though.
even if true and acurate, the people you order the tablets are in Shenzhen, china.

robot muscles are real. this makes human shape robots one step closer.
wait i'm wrong look at north korea. they tried the same thing already.

By sending it Fahrenheit 451 if it bursts into flame then you know it's too hot.

that is entirely in the realm of possibility.
