... otherwise what's next state-sponsored bribery, theft, sabotage of competitors, why not just invade a foreign country take all their gold? Laws must also apply when dealing with foreign citizens, countries and cooperations...
I'm assuming this is sarcasm. Don't we already do all these things?
of course the wishes of 300M people trump those of the rest of the world, for the american gov. every country should put the rights and safety of their own population over that of the rest of the world. but there are ways to do that without pissing off the rest of the world. i.e. don't get caught, don't push policies abroad that will cause the world to hate.
You wouldn't believe how many otherwise intelligent people tell me they think it's fine to give up all their rights to the gov because they aren't doing anything wrong.
I don't even have my resume online and I'm getting cold calls from Amazon asking me to move to Seattle to work for them...so it seems like they're looking. I'm not a superstar. I just have my linkedin account updated and network when I'm able.
Ironically, I was in the opposite situation, I wanted to work for Amazon, but wouldn't consider a move to Seattle.
Well, sure, if you are agnostic, and then go on to believe in magical wizards in the sky or someone named jesus who isn't your gardner, than yea, you're not really in my rational human being category...but you're at least thinking.
USA might be Christian, but Slashdot is most likely Atheist, Agnostic, Spiritual and Humanist. You know, full of rational people who seek refuge from those who not only imagine wizards in the sky doing shit for them...but want everyone else to do the same. In any case, this seems like a suitable death for these fools.
it can head out to run some errands, drive other members of your family around, or you can send it out in taxi mode, to make some extra cash for you. well, all that assumes you own the car and care what happens to it after it drops you off.
Not a problem...lots of biz models 1. insurance includes mandatory and included in your premium sensor/systems maintenance 2. car is subscribed to or leased which includes maintenance in monthly fee 3. cars are not owned; just used like taxis; so they're maintained by a company under strict regulations...and the cars will maintain themselves. a loaner car can drive over while your car is worked on.
That's from the maternal line. It's the DNA that's directly passed down only from the mother. Just because no maternal Neanderthals DNA is present doesn't mean there isn't Neanderthals DNA present from Neanderthal fathers. I'm not arguing that this is the answer, only that the findings above don't prohibit this from being true.
Besides, we all know those Neanderthals mean were the one's hitting our ancestral women on the heads, dragging them back their caves, and spreading their DNA.:P
As someone in the industry, this is absolutely practical with current tech. Nothing new needs to be invented. It's just a hardware infrastructure build out, software build out, and society/FAA issue.
I'm surprised to see so many people think this is BS. Sure there are issues. But that's always the case.
Your assumptions about what the current tech can handle are false.
1. If a drone is downed, it will report it's last known GPS coords. If it's still online after crashing, it will probably live stream audio/video of what's happening to it. 2. Allow other drones out for delivery to swarm a downed drone to observe the perpetrators ad hoc until a dedicated incident drone can arrive to observe 3. Fry the electronics upon being downed so that they can't be stolen. 4. Initially ship only items that are of low cost, despite being of high value to the consumer. (i.e. hdmi cable, diapers, etc). 5. Initially only ship items which can be permanently disabled via serial number if the drone goes down. (i.e. kindle, cell phone, etc) 6. Initially have a large percentage of total drones be test drones with no shipments, so downing drones is not very profitable. 7. Have the drones fly totally unpredictable routes so that one can not anticipate their flight path.
Are you really so lacking in confidence of your ability to defend yourself should someone try and physically attack you or what?
I'm absolutely lacking in confidence that I could defend myself and family against an arbitrary number of attackers, on any given day. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool.
I'd like to know 1) how many of the people killed by handguns deserved to die. (i.e. self defense, etc) 2) how many were used committed by the gov versus citizen to citizen or citizen to gov

i'd get them a chomebook.
easier to use. minimal risk. minimal cost. simple to replace.
Soon you will need to swap out your resistive heating too

Such fools.
and what happens if the earth splits and the water drains away?
they should just call off the deal. The price has effectively gone up 50%.

they have guns right? It's up to them how painful and horrible it is.
it can be quick and painless if they like.
It's nice to see these armed thugs die.
If only all such cases could end this way.

Alsup! Everything.
I just have trouble finding the people whom they belong to.

theft is theft.
besides, water is energy dense.
hang him.
For free!
you've obviously never driven a porsche boxster. one of the most stable, well handling cars i've ever driven. and it's mid-engine.
