    What if they get smart (which they will) and immediately take the data and store it off site.

    I remember in the '80's of how cool cable was without commercials. You are right. It didn't last long. But at least to me, computers are a different animal. They can run commercials in good taste, on the side or below of the article. Or maybe even a movie (if you can tolerate it). I've already conditioned myself to moving articles (Or you can move a box in front of them. (The static one's I find in good taste - they are polite.) AND the automatic audio player ones sites are closed at once. I hope they get my displeasure of their shenanigans with trackers.

    I see your point, but I'm more worried that some nut is going to use this potentially powerful engine to run DOS attacks or some other evil thing.

    Excellent reply!! I was a hard core Republican until I found out Bush junior lied about the war. I was livid. And I went Democrat in 2004. Homeland security is another big drain on our tax dollars..Along with the war on drugs that started with Richard Nixon in 1972. Jails had no business until then.. I'm sure you are younger than me. And glad you realize what is REALLY going on. You get what you vote for.

    You are right that most people don't want to carry stuff and it doesn't have distance.. But it irks me that people can just walk around freely, with a concealed and carry gun with a silencer. And we got noting.. If they are going to go caveman with guns. I want THEM to get nervous and have second thoughts if they pull those guns out. "Seeing stars" would be one way. A human has about 210 degrees horizontal angle view and 150 degrees vertical. And even the best human fighter cannot anticipate all multiple surprise attacks. I still to this day, have never seen a hotel without a bunch of cameras.. They BETTER start monitoring human traffic live - now - with metal detectors too!! And science better catch up. I'm sure they can come up with an infra-red camera that can trace the heated air or a bullet.

    Regarding #1: Does the game allow you to use objects against the the AI's intelligence? For example: finding a mirror. Using it to reflect a "you" while you shoot it from another angle? Or simply shoot at something above it and flatten the damed thing?

  8. So fire 2% of the management then? To even it out?

    Does anyone else find it ironic that we can carry rapid fire guns, and not carry swords, crossbows, or slingshots?? With silencers allowed on guns, the sound argument is moot.

    Yea, horizontal velocity both from the turning of the earth, causing a curve when it DOES leave earth's gravity. and the natural curving flight of an object as it descends upon the sun or a black hole.

    I'm a bit confused here. As far as I recall. The first trip to the moon did not require an earth orbit. They just timed it to reach the moon in it's orbit. THEN the orbiting around the moon began as they neared it.. Now that I researched it. It did require 1/2 an orbit around the earth because of lack of escape velocity. So you get half-off on this discussion. https://www.space.com/26572-ho... 2nd picture down.

    Indeed it is heavy! You would do it in small amounts at a time.. if rockets could be made reliable and powerful enough.. Having something dangerous near you, that has a half life of roughly 24,000 years is not cool. The other option would be to figure out a way to accelerate the half lives of plutonium.

    If automation and rockets were this good, we would have already sent ALL of the spent Plutonium out to space. Not gonna happen!! Rockets have historically crashed and exploded in flights. They still do.
