So if I'm ever flying over Miami in a light plane I can look forward to trying to dodge robotic aircraft... aren't fit to share airspace where human lives are at stake.
What are you doing flying over populated areas in a > 1000 pound aircraft at the low altitudes this < 20 lb object is maneuvering at?

I'm curious at what point we will quit treating these hard drive replacements as that, and instead treat them as what they are - large arrays of addressable memory. Without doing the homework to be sure, I suspect that being able to remove the overhead of an OS building the needed protocol stream to address this memory as a hard drive, and instead treating it as memory, would save significant(?) code/time.
I think this statement was not designed to demean military men
The "insightful" statements have a completely different focus without the throwaway low expectation statement - but the statement is made, and completely (re)defines the respect the other comments deserve.
Can you guarantee that you won't attempt to intentionally introduce exploits into Open Source projects in order to create your own private zero day exploits?
Logistic supply, even today, is a serious limiting factor. We can get people somewhere quickly - we fly 'em there and shove 'em out the back of an airplane - but there's only so many airplanes to go around - moving large quantities of spare parts, etc. would be greatly served by such a nationwide system.
It'd be a challenge to make something like this cross the oceans - the inevitable repairs would be difficult.
Some sort of spyware would be built into the OS/Sivlerlight/whatever - it would be a "selling point" to get vendors to require the end user to accept such a thing in order to use the website.

the downside is if its effective the smugglers methodology will simply change.
If effective, then the changed methodology will cost the smugglers more - hence economics will reduce the supply.
wasn't the last great advance for police forces the taser? Yep, that worked out pretty good, don't you think?
Yeah, they should just go back to using one-ounce of lead at high velocity to solve all their problems.

No.
this will be based on PowerShell
won't it be called something like PowerShell Professional Enterprise Level Home Edition Plus Networking, Five Seats, Single Core?

why would you ever watch a movie on your phone
I think there is a world market for maybe five people to watch movies on a phone.
(with apologies to Thomas Watson)
and many managers that won't mind spending money on an unproven concept.
as long as it's got a skateboarding turtle it's sure to be a winner.

I and anyone else in this situation (read: all US citizens) are free and justified to whine.
If you can't do, whine.

Dude - you have the source!
I actually had to google "YGTBKM" to see what it meant.
YGBSM.
Although I didn't expect much from a military man.
That's ok - he'll still put his life on the line to protect your right to continue to whine.
My mother has already been targeted this way, although via phone.
So what's the military usage of this technology?

If you insist we can take this matter to the lab and find out.

Ah, the never tiring slashdotter pick up line
two hours of video nicely fits a single 4.7gb DVD-R with acceptable quality
Perhaps for sufficiently low values of acceptable.
politicians?
how would this be implemented?
Some sort of spyware would be built into the OS/Sivlerlight/whatever - it would be a "selling point" to get vendors to require the end user to accept such a thing in order to use the website.
The first thing is to fully fund medschool.
The great thing about something as hard and expensive as medical school is you mostly get people who actually want to be there.
and Hollywood!
Only one of these things does not require the copyright police to enforce your business model
... the copyright attitude
And perhaps even more important
They tend to dry out more than wear out.
If you had to listen to that every time then you have to play Stop the Tears pretty soon
