We all know you shitheads are planning the next culling with your fake ass alien invasion.
Well, wars have been a popular form of culling. I guess that if the choice is to be blown up by a weapon, or submitting to an anal probe, I know which one I would choo...
Meh, the existence of satellites prove Roundearth, and GPS satellites prove Einstein; things that these troll wannabees will never be able to wrap their heads around.
OTOH, I have a hypothesis that these folk have flat heads. I wonder if I can get a grant? Or a newsletter?
Yeah, I saw the vid in TFA. It looked exactly like that: electronic "lens flare" in perhaps a different spectrum from light. I noticed 1: no jitter of the target in the box, and 2: it rotated at the same time the fighter leveled out.
People, this warning system is for you and me. What do police do when protecting their own? Pretty much anything. Think mama bear and her cubs. This is common in the mammalian family. Do you want to be anywhere near mama bear? No. Be thankful for the warning.
From OP: "Not unlike the intent of the three laws of robotics" I would say he did read them. And properly discussed the *intent* of the laws. And what is a workable solution? Have we solved for all computer crashes? No? Yet a computer is still a workable solution. I will say that those spectacular failures made for some great reading. OTOH, reading a story about a comp working properly lacks...something.
Douglas Adams mentioned (actually, went on about it) that a President's job is to attract attention away from power. In that respect, Trump just may be the best President since PT Barnum.

Oh shit, we have already chosen.

F: instrument malfunction.

Nice post. Wanted to mod you up but you are maxxed already. It appears that 56% of /. agree with you.
Merry New Year to all, and to all, a good pint!
how much hookers and blow do you have to do in order to piss away 178k a year?
Not sure. Shall we collaborate on a study?
Nice Easter egg.
30 grand fifty years ago would be over $200k today. Inflation is an amazing thing.
And this proves the thesis of TFA.
Yeah.
Fact: Red is not blue.
Randon internet user: You're wrong. You didn't mention yellow.
Obviously you didn't see it. I did. And I think you would have been stunned if you had.
Wish I had seen it live. Just from what I saw in media, I can imagine how great it would have been live.
I always pictured pneumatic tube systems that were the height of technology in ancient times.
Google has trademarked Alphabet. They have *all* the letters now.
Shock that monkey.
Buried somewhere deep in all those words is a thought trying desperately to get out.
Descartes replies, “No, I think not,” and disappears in a puff of logic
Nicely done.

Pretty much anything. Think mama bear and her cubs.

No. Be thankful for the warning.
Not allowed in prisons?
Then why call them cell phones?
At work, end of the day; a quick look at /. to feed my jones. I find this; I return home knowing all is well in the world.
99 bugs in the code to be fixed, 99 bugs in the code. Fix a bug, wrap it up, 148 bugs in the code...
Pretty much :)
Is there any field of human endeavour that suffers from so many unintended consequences, besides politics?
Yeah, I expect that a warning "DO NOT SHARE" would actually trigger many of the contrarians on this site.
I find it bizarre that SPCA has funds for homeless-shooing robots.
TFA sez the robot costs $6/hr to rent. Min wage is $14/hr.
How much does it cost to repair a robot smashed with a baseball bat?
Anyone who does that is going to have a problem with the SPCR.

Lesson learned.

It's UFOs all the way down. Er, up. Nvrmnd.
