It is unfair, though. School districts should, in my opinion, be more nationally standardized.
I am a junior in highschool. Two years ago, as a freshman, a friend and I had decided to "hack" this one loser who was harrassing me. Every chance this kid could get, he would call me some stupid name. It wasn't so much that my feelings were hurt, it was more that he was annoying and it would be fun to screw up his stuff.
I remember one time, in math class, middle of a lesson, he leans over and calls me some stupid name, I tell him to shut up, and the stupid teacher yells at me for disrupting class. I didn't yell, or anything. Damn teacher hated me because I have long hair.
Anyway. All my friend and I did was get a keylogger on his computer. A cheap one, CHOTA. He is the kind of moron who believes you when you tell him this suspicious program you are sending him is "a game." He ran it, and we told him the game was to find out what the program does.
After a day we got his password, screwed up his website, got into his email (turns out he was subscribed to porn under the alias of "Stephanie"). He told on us and eventually we were expelled.
Got 48 hours of community service, 10 days suspension, 2 year expulsion (1 year if we were good). Since then I have been to 3 different high schools. One semester in another public school, a year in a catholic school (not fun at ALL), and now I am starting my junior year several hundred miles away. This year I would be going back, but my family moved to Texas. I lived in PA. Big difference.
I admit, what I did was lame, very VERY script kiddish stuff. But it was fun, and I'd do it again.
The same thing happened for Mormons. Google lifted up a bunch of anti-Mormonism sites to the first page. exmormon.org is only below the official LDS sites.
I doubt it's Marvin's height that is the reason of his depression. If you had the brain the size of a planet, and were told to do small tasks like pushing around hitchhikers, wouldn't you be sad?
>Seriouly, am I alone on this?
That all depends on how you define "alone".
I'm not quite sure how a Warcraft movie would do..
But Disney isn't making the film, Spyglass Entertainment is. The only thing this has to do with Disney is that Disney might publish it.
Just make the robot able to feel anguish, both mental and physical. If his arm is cut off, he should know that is not good. And also make the robot able to consider the physical and mental feelings of humans and other robots.
Then all you have to do is enforce the robot with the Golden Rule, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
So, if a robot wants to hurt a human or robot, it'll think of how itself would feel in the situation, and would act upon that. If a robot sees a human or robot in danger, he would think of what he would want another human or robot to do for him if he were in the same situation, and do that.
It just so happens that my main goal in life is to create sentient computer intelligence, and it also happens that I am fifteen years old and an amateur in C++. I have some cool ideas though..
Yeah, accidents would decrease at least two percent.
That's another thing about security though, if we decide to ban cars now, you'd find enthusiasts still making them. Just like with illegal drugs and prohibition way back when. Then again, it's much more difficult to hide a car than to hide a few bags and a bottle.

Scientists hope dog clones will help them understand and treat a range of serious human diseases.
These scientists speak dog?
Or just not invent simulated sex.
That's obvious. Naked silicon based amoeboid lifeforms with communal intelligence.

...there are so many inconsistencies in the Hitchhiker's universe.
Well, things tend to get screwy when you mess with probability.
Why is that? Was physical theory not thought up by humans? All that we believe now might just be wrong.
Have we really gotten to a point where we must have conventions about conventions?

Input would be appreciated.
