Why not make the logical step and fit weapons to the BEAR so you don't have to send the soldier into harms way in the first place? This thing has cameras and you could fit a camera to the weapon for sighting purposes... This thing is effectively a wireless waldo and not a real robot, so you still have a human in the loop on the trigger...
We had this in the UK with the Bikini Alert codes... technically we should have remained at Amber for very long periods, but the overhead required in continuously mounting armed guards and vehicle searches on our bases was getting rather tiresome, so they introduced Bikini Black Aalpha which allowed them to drop to the new state of "higher than Black" but not have to perform all the extra checks required by Amber... we still performed a lot of checks, but on a random basis instead of having to search every vehicle and also were able to drop down to unarmed guards with a small armed reserve (provided by our normal military police) instead of everybody on guard having to be armed.

It's the parent's responsibility what they let their children do, NOT Google's or the ISP or the government.
If they're worried about little jJimmy or Jane accidentally finding porn, then they should be doing the filtering themselves by installing software on the computer the kids use and setting up a whitelist of sites that they believe are safe.
I'm worried this is going to be part of a drip, drip "think of the children" media campaign to mandate filtering for everybody, so they can then get the hardware in to track everything and also block sites they don't approve of that aren't porn related, but will be on a super secret filter list

there was nothing wrong with the O-ring joints PROVIDED that the booster was used within it's environmental limitations... It was a serious case of press-on-itis from senior management who overrode the misgivings of their own engineers. They were under severe pressure to launch and there had already been several delays.
A one piece design is not necessarily safer either as it would have been extremely difficult to get a single pour without any voids in such a large volume of propellant. It was far easier to produce smaller sections without defects and then assemble the entire booster from good sections.
somebody wants that land and is prepared to get the DEA involved so that he can then pick up the land at the seizure sale... there is some serious corruption in your country.
this is why I hate not being able to just walk into a high street shop and buy a computer pre-loaded with Linux or with no OS pre-loaded at all...
far too many sales that end up with the OS being wiped to replace with Linux or else reversion rights being exercised to install XP are being counted as Windows 7 sales...
The firm my mother worked for put itself out of action by selling large hydraulic presses to the Russians to use in factories that were to produce large hydraulic presses...
always knew there would be comebacks for letting the Chinese do your manufacturing for you as they would learn your technology and use it against you
I play (real) guitar.. but I can still enjoy playing a fake plastic guitar with some friends (and copious beer). It's not the same as a jam session, but its not supposed to be.. it's a game!
yup... The original Guitar Hero 2 got me back into playing again... I found it easier to play my real bass than the GH in bass mode... since then I've got into guitar as it's pretty depressing playing bass on your own... and most bass solo pieces are just widdle fests up in the dusty end where you might as well be playing on a guitar...

musicians make music because they love music. they do it for that reward alone. any money beyond that fact is just icing on the cake. no one goes into music saying "i have to generate a positive net cash flow in the third quarter." no one writes songs like that, well, no songs you want to listen to anyways. maybe some say "i'm going to write music to impress chicks and get in their pants", but again, that's not money. ego, fame, charisma: that's what makes music. removing money from the equation changes nothing. maybe makes it better
I've got some bad news for you... there are quite a lot out there who're only in it for the money... we call them "breadheads"...
designed to lock open source competition out and yet another splurge of patents, but "with a phone on your TV" tacked on them to make them seem novel...
... if the flood defences had failed to protect the major electricity substation supplying a large part of the county including the UK Government's listening HQ, GCHQ
GCHQ has it's own independent backup supply... you don't think they'd have built it without one now?
Not to sound like my tinfoil hat has gotten too tight, but really is this warfare? So our grid goes down. Does this mean we can't live?
You've already had examples of how things break down when the power goes out during the previous major blackouts... imagine it being nationwide and more than 48 hours in duration... you cannot cope with that... people WILL be fighting for food and water...
There were fights in supermarkets in Gloucestershire over bread and water when the floods hit in 2007...
They were minutes away from having to order the evacuation of most of the county if the flood defences had failed to protect the major electricity substation supplying a large part of the county including the city of Gloucester... the main water treatment plant was taken out by the floods and we were having to use water trucked in and distributed via water bowsers for several weeks until the plant was repaired and the water mains had been flushed out and treated

oh please don't go down that route... I'm sure that's the planned endgame for all of this... everybody has to have an RFID device impanted

wow, thanks for that... the link on there to pinouts.ru is sheer magic to an old hardware geek like me...
what a snobby comment...
wouldn't expand though... but shrink!!!
