Nah, this is what a petite pilot looks like...
"Then again, robots aren't always so easy-going. In July, Dallas police used a similar robot carrying a bomb to blow up a suspect who was holding them off with firearms."
It's not the robots, it's the guys at the controls. Seems like the LAPD's SWAT team have some that are quife sensible. I hope that someone buys them a couple of after hour brewskis.
FWIIW, Rank Xerox figured out that the real money is in selling toner, not selling copy machines some 40 years ago.
Not that I agree with this sort of business model; it somehow reminds me of the way drug dealers operate. The first hit is free... only that it isn't.
BTW, Lou Reed's "Waiting For The Man" is the perfect song for running out of ink/toner/paper on a sunday night, with an important piece of work due on monday morning.
Is this contraption using the fuel as a heat sink or is it supposed to chill the fuel? (Or was there no room to lay the pipes around the fuel tank?)
Neither option sounds reassuring. Does anyone know something about the reasoning behind this? Has this something to do with cooling the jet exhaust "because stealth"?
"Even if they're not required, it's very good practice to sit down at the end of each day and make notes about how your time was consumed."
Can be very useful. Not just when facing off behind lawvers. Performance interviews, "what have you been doing with your time" questions, arguing raises or promotions... nothing like beating them with their own weapons.
Yes, doctors... an alarmingly large number of them doesn't know that much about biological viruses* to beginn with, let alone the computer variant...
* I checked. While apparently the jury is still out whether "virii" is a no-no or not, "viruses" (the word) seems safe to use.
"... a state [Texas] where songwriters are popular heroes."
Only when their songs are about guns and people who need kkllin'.
With the possible exception of Roy Orbison.
There was the FP-45 Liberator, amongst other guns like pen- and lipstick-guns, and guns as part of gloves... a lot of clever ideas, but usually more of a novelty than an effectice weapon. Most of them fall into the category of "if you're close enough to your adversary to use it, you might just as well use a knife or your hands or a brick or whatever is availiable".
Just a suggestion: Eddie Izzard - Cake or Death?
