passivecool And anthropic got s*t on for the position that the technology is just not there yet . *rolleyes* What's next then on the agenda? Stealth umbrellas like in the 'Kingsmen' films? I would love to be able to see into the future if Humanity manages to figure out – on the scale of nations – that collaboration and compromise and rules of law and order are better for everyone than bashing each others brains in like Neanderthals, with painful GNP% priced, high-tech rocks.

Notton That's hilarious, but also scary. Did you see how that drone took a dive towards the umbrella? Yeah, IDK how much I want a 1~5lbs drone taking a dive towards me, lol. It'd be useful around prisons, my guess. Reply

As long as resources & territory remain limited, there will always be conflict. This has always been true. It's a basic fact of life that even simple organisms obey and that technology cannot invalidate. We would ideally like all conflict to occur in peaceful and managed ways, which is essentially what capitalism tries to do. But, the incentives are always there for some not to play by the rules. How the world responds is ultimately what dictates the kind of world we live in. The only way to keep everyone playing by the rules is to make rule-breaking so costly that it has no appeal. Reply
