    Well, it would be really nice if all religious people would go to their saviour and leave the rest of us in peace and quiet.

    When key broke, it took the dealer a week to update their Windows PC, get the proper software and program a new key, so I guess a thief could really do it in about 5 seconds...

    You may be onto something. If you fill the car with junk so it looks like a homeless den, then it probably won't get stolen either.

    A chain also has other uses, apart from properly securing the steering wheel to the seat of a car. I once chased off five youths with it. The improbable sight of a big bearded guy in a black leather jacket getting out of his car with a heavy chain in his hand, made them change their minds very swiftly.

    Ayup - the good old bad old days were always better. I haven't used a headphone in many years and haven't got any muzak stored on my phones and tablets. So, not my problem.

  19. Nukes are obsolete on Russia Is Building a Nuclear Space Bomber (thedailybeast.com) · · Score: 1

    Nukes are only used to scare the public. In reality, precision bombing is used in war. Just think of the TV coverage of all the wars in the middle east. There is no need to obliterate a whole city, if you can take out the military capability alone.

  25. Straight line vs crooked path killing on Using a Bomb Robot to Kill a Suspect Is an Unprecedented Shift in Policing (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    A bullet also kills remotely, it just gets transported over an almost straight line and hits where it can be seen directly by the shooter. A killer robot moves around obstacles and the operator can see via a camera. However, a missile, grenade or mortar travels in an arc and explodes where it cannot be seen at all. So, using remote vehicles to deliver a killing blow isn't really a new idea.
