There have been many situations where you've had humans in on the ground, one gets killed, and the slain soldier's buddies snap and decide to massacre an entire village. I'm not really sure what part of merciful warfare autonomous robots are threatening.
"In this film we hope to show how not to be seen. This is Mr. Mohammed Quadrallah of 2345 Ibn Ali Avenue, Lashkar Gah, Helmand province, Afghanistan. He can not be seen. Now I am going to ask him to take the carpet off his pickup truck. Mr. Quadrallah, will you please take the carpet off."

My favorite High Cost Military Equipment With Low Cost Achilles heel story is about the Stryker armored vehicle. The Pentagon spends ~$200,000 to put the M151 remote machine gun mount on the Stryker APC to avoid a crewman being exposed to enemy fire while operating the.50 cal machine gun. But if that solider runs out of the standard load of 200 rounds of ammo they have climb outside vehicle and expose themselves to enemy fire to reload the weapon.
appears on your doorstep and wants to have mindblowing sex with you, you can zap her with a powerful mars laser, call her out as a fraud slathered in high fructose corn syrup, and send her on her way.
Even if it doesn't accurately tell time, you could have it constantly play MP3 files of songs with known times. If it's 5:00PM when Train's Hey Soul Sister (3:37) starts, at the end of the song you know it's 5:03:37PM. Then Ke$ha's c'mon (3:22 radio edit version) starts playing, and at the end you know it's 5:06:59PM. And so on.
I use these establishments only to plug my notebook into a ethernet jack, but a non-insignificant amount of times, to ask to use your own computer instead of their infectious, malware-ridden machines evokes suspicion that are you are some kind of hacker terrorist and they want you to leave.
Extending and embracing your analogy, it's like bringing your own hooker to a truckstop and they want you to leave because they think you're a pimp.
If people exercised natural common sense on the Internet, Slashdot would be a very boring place and we wouldn't probably even be having this conversation.
Seeing arguments over which bytecode/interpreted language is faster is like see two drivers at a tractor pull arguing which of their machines pulling a multi-ton sled most resembles a ferrari.
Or they could take the money assigned to DHS for medical device security and instead design a universal open-source electronic medical records system where security is maintained constant peer review and no one company has a monopoly on EMR's system.
If DDOS is more akin to walking into the foyer of Congress armed to the teeth, holding everyone hostage, until Congress agrees to the hostage-taker's demands, then wouldn't that make John Boehner more akin to a script kiddie who uses LOIC?
BI puts people like you into a OLAP cube and tells us what are the two largest quartiles of major metropolitan areas where people were too lazy to click on TFA and how many Starbucks in those areas which also happened to sell "Super-Pay-Attention Kenyan Ultra Blend" beans took a loss on that particular item.

Turn your wifi connection off. After the first few 404's you'll be surprised as how much work you'll get done.
And putting it on YouTube.
I had Texas pegged as building the biggest, meanest, most picture-takingest robots that you ever damn saw, son.

How many of you immediately thought of that scene from "There's Something About Mary"?

And quickly too, before it develops thermonuclear capabilities.
The sun has a well-known liberal bias, therefore the US gets less sunlight than a socialist European welfare state.

I know, I know. You can stop laughing now.
Naming a product that's supposed to save your business after one of literature's most prominent suicides probably seemed like a good idea at the time.
