...for Israel, and other small nations fighting several neighbors at once. Israel could fire these from an innocent-looking container carrier near Cyprus, and hit Damascus.
I had a look at the video. Well done. Would make perfect sense for small countries to possess.
You are wrong. Sweden and Switzerland use a similar concepts with their strategic reserve of fighters and bombers, concealing them in overgrown bunkers. The planes take off from... ordinary asphalted roads.
Exactly. Churchill, after the war, once admitted that the only thing that could have had the Germans winning the war would have been more investments in submarines, thus destroying more of the allied fleets. He ( Churchill ) said that is was the only possibility that had kept him out of his sleep during the war.
If this guy pursues a career in tech ( is he an engineer ? ), he may become famous. Anyways, nice stunt from Lufthansa. I flew with them once to India - most laidback airline personnel I ever dealt with on a long flight.
Ahhh... I used to live and work in France, and dealt with the DGA a couple of times. I had not thought such a nasty outfit - they ARE arms dealers, after all - to make such a move. I am nicely surprised.
AWESOME ! I gawked while watching that, not being a robotician and therefore not really up-to-date with developments in that field.
Isn't it about time to equip robots with Asimov's precepts ? I mean - such robots could cause serious harm to humans.
...although I found the video pretty interesting to watch. One thing, though: isn't there much more inertia in the Wiimote / tablet system than there is within the entire robot ? And if so, doesn't that skew the whole game in the robot's favor ?
I don't know if police officers, in the USA / in that particular state, can be charged with that. In my country, any citizen can, whether a civil servant or not. 't Would be a good thing, though, if it happened.
This guy is cocky. And that is a compliment. He is prolly right about his business model being a working one, where others go under. And "cocky" tends to be a compliment in other sectors, too. E.g. the military, where "cocky" generals are, most of the times, the best ones.
..who thinks that is short-sighted from Apple ? Apple has, since its very beginnings, been about two things: computers, i.e. finished computers - and software. In the long run, buying Arm is a beginning of turning Apple into a conglomerate. And conglomerates are not only unwieldy and difficult to manage - they don't survive for very long.

Someone modded this down to "troll". Definitely some people around today who have no sense for fucking humor. Godverdomme.

Great move. Other governments should follow. Just as all of you should follow my first post :-P
I don't know if there is a causal relationship between the use of cell phones in public and their owners' behavior . . .
There is. In the reverse order: behavior ==> use of fucking cell phones in public. And "shit for brains" ==> behavior, too.
Gimme a call when there is a report ready. Oh, while you're busy anyway: could you include a study on chemtrails, too ?
Moving ? Moving on what? Chewing gum ? BJs ? Talking ?
...that 2/3 = 0,7 for large values of 2 ??
How comes that it is easier said "easier said "easier said "easier said "easier said than done" than done" than done" than done", sometimes ?
Just spent $ 4100 on an Alienware M17x with dual SSD. Awesome perfs. Never saw anything like it.
That is how I understood it.

Your first phrase is what you say it is: a suspicion, i.e. an uncorroborated conjecture. Your second phrase is an unproven generalization.
Very true. Well said.
A clash of the cultures. How sad that this has to happen in the western world of 2010. Shall we ever learn anything from history, dammit ?

Nope. By the Shrike.
...rocks !
