Ah, in that usage the shooter is providing consent-to-fire. Just like aircraft use consent-to-release for modes like continuously calculated release point (CCRP)
The pilot lines up, when close he holds the release. The computer waits for the right moment, and if the pilot is holding the consent to release, the bomb drops. The pilot has to use a different drop mode (continuously calculated impact point, CCIP) to get an actual "push button, drop bomb" functionality.
Not a new idea at all, and in fact I do like the idea. Much less room for error on the collateral side. If an error is to be made, it's in not releasing the munition. In the case of bombs that's generally the safer side for it to fall on.
How is it still made by the software? All it can do (here) is make it easier - you still have to pull the trigger, and you can fire whether it wants you to or not. You only have to pull the trigger a bit harder.
My own rifle is a Marlin XL7.30-06. It's got a special safety latch built into the trigger (there's a little lever that sticks out the center of the trigger. Without pushing that back, the trigger will not pull. Basically it enforces you to properly finger the trigger) and is adjustable down to a 2.5lb pull.
And what, pray tell, would it sense? Wind needs to be figured from other sources, such as brush movement. There's no guarantee that the wind exposed to the rifle is the wind between the rifle and target.
This does it. It rides the trigger pull weight so it's hard to pull when off-target, but at the right moment it's lightened.
So: aim, lightly pull trigger. When the fire computer says go, the trigger lightens and the pressure you are providing slips the sear, and things go boom.
But, at the same time, you can just pull harder and override it.
Except that even with a heavy pull, you can still pull and fire. This means you can lightly pull the trigger to get the effect you describe, or just pull a bit harder to override it.
Have you shot a rifle? You know how trigger pulls work?
Yea, going to the doctor, waiting half an hour or more, spending at least at $30 copay (assuming you actually have insurance worth a damn) to be told "yep, you're sick" - sounds like a good idea...
Totally unqualified "educated" guess: crew left the APU on even though it's supposed to be off after the engines are up to speed?
From what simulation and speaking with pilots I've gathered, usually you are "supposed" to turn the APU off after engine starts, though usually this is not done as it consumes a tiny fraction of fuel and gives you some wiggle room in the event of an engine failure.
Oh yea, it's so easy to put a power plant underground.
Fine then, you can just find the exhaust points and blow those up. Any significant power installation is going to put out a lot of heat, and blocking that heat from being removed is going to cause some serious issues for said installation.
This gets worse as the distance increases. The same phenomena is why earth-bound telescopes don't hold a candle to space telescopes such as the Hubble.
Chances are the heat from the radar absorptive burning off would damage the reflectivity of the mirrored surface, resulting in exactly no point for the mirroring to be there.
It's not an instant process. Each unit of time under exposure more heat is dumped into the reflective surface. As the heat goes up it begins to fail, increasing the amount of heat absorbed per unit of time.

DDoSs can DAMAGE systems.
Then the system is already fucking broken.
Not to mention they could just lie. After all, he's just some schmuck in their eyes.

it holds the firing pin until the time is right.
I must be dense or you're reading something into it that's not there. Can you please point me out to where it states this?

Ridiculously overpriced even without that idea.
Audacity.
Or Edison. I love Edison. It's available standalone as well, not just as a VST plugin.
Fuck pro-tools.
People who know what they are doing just hand audio around, nobody cares what was used to create the audio.
Brackets? I don't see any brackets.
I'd prefer the DRM over the trojan(s).
Yep, because product B is an update to product A, not a different product.

What if you don't have a sea anywhere close?

Differentials in air temperature, density, and content (moisture etc) cause tiny amounts of refracting. This adds up to cause the beam to "jitter"
This gets worse as the distance increases. The same phenomena is why earth-bound telescopes don't hold a candle to space telescopes such as the Hubble.
With remaining... head?
Did you miss the part where it killed drones flying at 50m/s?

You damage it to the point where it can't avoid impact.
Huh?

Really? Or are those uses just in trace amounts, and the concentrations in the squid are too high?
