Well: If it wasn't for urope you guys would still be running around with feathers in your hair.;-]
My point was that in war you USians seem to not be analysing a lot... just whacking all that moves. (which might not be that bad as a tactic)
But let's take Vietnam... (oops... you guys tried to take Vietnam... after our french friends already showed you guys it could not be done.) Accidentaly, what did the us fight that war for?
Anyway: the vietcong, and the germans, and the germans and the koreans, and the afghans all had one thing in comon: they were outclassed in number and quality (not exactly the germans, they just had to little good stuff left.) AND they had hardly any food.
How did your oponants all survive this long?
and your point: US just can't do anything to please Europe, can it? well... let's say: stop trying to please us already!

Anthropic principle: We see the universe the way it is because if it were different we would not be here to observe it.
I think the DARPA guys need just to study the wars the USians brought to countries like Vietnam, Korea, Somalia, Afganistan and probably Iraq too... (oh off and course closer to my home... Germany, twice.)
Most of those wars were fought agains adversaries that had to do without food for days...
So, only driving is allowed in this contest, no hovering or flying?
It would be soo much easier just to buy an old Apache (keep the hellfires attached... to have extra competative advantage) and fly over the course that was set out.
Probably more usefull too, once el quada acquire these robocars (or bikes) it would be handy to have something that can fly to take out the hordes of robocars coming to invade the us...
oh... and this would be old technology, since we learned to fly drones way back in previous century.... if DARPA would have really set a challange it would have been soo much more interesting. Why dont they set it to be "build a vehicle to invade Mars." (competing so far are: a baloon, a couple of rovers and a one armed DOA esa beagle)
I would not stand too close to doors or windows for a while if I were you...
There might be a SWAT team ready to take you out.
You just confessed. Now they do not even need the patriot act to shoot you.

hmm... might do, but the 80's was not the period wher I documented a lot. I do not have the actual electronics any more either... so it would be just some pics and nothing more.
talking about fools:
nah... you better learn Dutch first.
I guess you would be one of those typical USians:
no foreign language skills AT ALL since to you it seems there is only one country in existence...
I built one of those slave flash thingies somewhere in the mid '80s... combined it with a microphone and a old Praktica reflex camera... (total kit was about $80 worth of cam and electronics...)
I had about the same results, only then using black and white photo's.
I think I am going to start one of those sites too. I am just as much a nerd as these guys!
Slashdot Mirror
then we better hope they will build the darn things on tissue paper too!
another imaginary friend...
oh no, this one is real. real disembodied that is.
OR
could this turn in one of thos HAL things? you remember the red pulsing light? this one is going to be on campus in every room:
Imagine trying to cheat on your tests:
"I'm sorry Dave"
"I can't let you do that Dave"
enter the big void
But it seems so perverse. There is such a huge waste of life and resources going on all around us.
You cannot be a true USian...
USians follow Bush and claim victory on taking Mars in 10 years.
M
ohww...
that would explain how and why they have disappeared/"died"/got extinct anyway...
M
Bush missed another chance to test his old ballistic rocketry...
if/when M$ were to buy it and have it interface directly with their software.
WSOD is really wsod...
it's not. It's the end of the beginning.
It cost evolution several milion years to be ready for this next step.
Now the real work can start:
cyborgs, borgs, Darpa,...
Let's just hope they do not sell this great invention to Cyberdine inc.
not so much the matrix! how about Terminator? M
even better:
I would have sworn Bush and the CIA were involved in it.
and YES you brought them to Germany. But only after saving a lot of urope first.

whow... I stept on someones toes here?

And I just stepped out of my car for the morning commute... I've seen hundreds of zombies this morning.

Well, the gun turret is a good idea anyway... It has got enough targets to practice it's aim during the race. M
"The new series will begin a few days after the miniseries that aired a few months back."
So where do I need to relocate to to be able to see these series now?
It would take years before the series finaly hit our country...
H*ll, we're still waiting for the final two episodes of the old serie...

Or it might be he is clever enough to think we would think he would not use his real name...
So his real name is Andy.

yes... but do not let this dude anywhere near the whitehouse...
I expect there to be a lot of videofeeds for him however.

I think, therefore thoughts exist. Ego is just an impression.
Where can I download the virus?
I'll do everything to bug sco.

another machine that goes "ping"
I would not really call this progress; if they would run this contraption on solar power or a penlite battery, it would be worth mentioning...

Hi guys,
Nice... those live DEMO's but that's not what I need.
A question I have had for a while now is: what linux to install...
I am not new to linux, I just have not had a version installed since RH 5.2 I totaly lost contact with linux for a while.
I'd like to have a system for my standard office work and doing some small website developments...
What would be the, easy installable, distro for me?
Cheers,
M
Could this filler not be the echo of the FOX network of last night?
