Not exactly a cab, but also an interesting automated transport system:
Phileas is the name of a new public transport system which is developed and built in Eindhoven (the Netherlands) by APTS. It is an electrically driven road vehicle with properties of a bus, tram or metro system. It allows several driving modes found in these vehicles:
Manual control with the use of gas pedal, brake and steering wheel as in a normal bus.
Semi-automatic control with computer controlled lateral tracking as in a tram or metro. The Phileas' electronic navigation system is guided here by a chain of magnetic bars hidden in the road surface.
Fully automatic control which additionally controls speed and smooth 'landing' and departing at bus stops. In this mode the drivers' main task is the supervision of the system and to take over control when necessary. (i actualy did see one read the newspaper while driving..)
The Phileas has an electronic lane assistance and precision docking system, which can be used on routes specifically prepared for this purpose. In these routes, a trail of magnetic reference markers will be laid in the road surface.
Our only option is to enlist the aid of the rest of the world's governments and people in helping us stop terrorism. The good news is that that shouldn't be too difficult to do -- almost nobody likes terrorists. But to work with people (or governments), you have to treat them with respect -- in particular, you have to understand that it's a two-way street. Double-standards do not go unnoticed by the world's public.
I think other countries have other things (protect their own country and agenda) to worry about.
Like that country on North-America that is waging war everywhere, just to give its own economy a boost.
Not only this, but on most calling plans in the US, it is free (included in the monthly cost) to make unlimited local calls from a land line. That means you could dial a cell number on a fax machine or modem, set it for unlimited retries, and at no cost to you, the victim's cell phone would just keep ringing, and ringing, and ringing...
This actualy is even more stupid than the Creditcard principle where you can also easily lose money without actualy wanting to spend it. Use PIN! PIN! Just as easy, it works like a bank withdrawel, it is free, it is more secure, and disables other peoples ability to pretend that you (intended to) pay them, as with creditcard is perfectly doable..
Stupid Americans (nothing personal, just the wideworld opinion here considering a country's reputation and moreoften stupid praktises and idea's) (yes, there is a complete world outside the USA, with less stupid thoughts)
While at this rant, i wanted to say that you should Forget the 'Democrat' VS 'Repulican' thought, there is a lot more, not in between, but in every direction. Politics isn't A vs B, its not that black and white.
With all due respect, communism is not high on the chart of things that get the benefit of the doubt.
With all due respect, so is any government. Not to mention W.Bush and that whole government? Because i'm european, i look at it trough international goggles: TBH considering international affairs, i trust china just as much as i trust the USA, if not more.
(internationally) The USA has (just as Israel to name an example) taken judgement in their own hands and played judge and executor.
This great dutch movie goes about the story of a man who found out about the conspirancy in wich the whole television industry is involved. How they have planned the future of marketing moves in frigting great detail.
It is called: Off Screen A must see, with subtitles if you don't understand dutch.
Yes, it was the latter, i didn't read al interviews. (what was the clever joke? i have a tendancy to accidently make jokes)
When it says (180-interview) this:
"mith also denied allegations leveled by some anti-spyware activists that the company's software is marketed mainly to teenagers and children, saying women aged 25 to 40 made up nearly 60 percent of the company's user base."
I wonder just HOW does he know? The user doesn't have to enter age or sex anywhere.. is he mining the PC's data?
On the other hand, i earn about 60 weekly by removing spyware only (like errorsafe) from customers PC's. So i shouldn't complain. Spyware or adware never invaded my own systems up to this day.
It would be a shame if somebody shot him.
True, they'd better break his fingers one by one before they'd kill that guy. Heck, just dont kill him but send him to iraq. Fodder.
It should be a no-brainer that creditcards are flawd. Eventualy information will end up in places you dont want it to be.
I can go on and on about how stupid the creditcard system is. Like its designed to fraude!
Use PIN! Using PIN one cant draw money from one another without his/her approval. You either need the client's bank to verify client's awareness, or you need the client paying by putting the card in a slot and entering his personal code. The magic? This code isn't printed on the outside of the creditcard. Pure genious! There is no information that goes to others than yourself + your bank!!! Wow!
Sorry i act so stupid. But creditcards are stupid. Sadly i was unable to locate a english wiki page regarding PIN - for your information.

Some users just click Yes without actualy knowing what they're dealing with.
^ Thats mostly ppl who use Windows, yes.
Should i include these nested comments? That should make it 7,5 or so.

I think it depends on the size of the coconut.
Or maybe it brought two! And ditched only one on your head!
So it could've been a African Swallow, then?

Great movie.
Flying car?
Well, i've *had* one, but returned back to the future and had to hand it off.
It had way to much influence in the(ir) history.

Thats a common feature in flight simulators.

Just don't be jealous because all that comments are moderated so high.
Is this a typo?
See the picture in the article, left-bottom, on the certificate, there it says "2006", and just below that "2Q06".
What what does THAT mean?
I think google will start giving away free buckets to go with every search query you enter. Everyone who saw the Spongebob movie knows the rest.
No, imagine being run over by a warp or hover engine. (basicly; any anti-gravity engine)
You'd be squiched from the inside out, with your hart exploding and stuff! Yuk.
