very true, i see both sides of the arguement. im not saying that this is whats going to happen and how they are going to reduce our population but it is deff a possibility, and im sure americans will like it way better than flat out killing people.
HAHAHA! He's too busy conjuring up conspiracy theories. So far I've heard:
Good Luck...They have nothing better to do than insult when someone has a conflicting view.
Upcoming Military Robot Could Feed on Dead Bodies
Tuesday, July 14, 2009
Robotic Technology Inc.
EATR robots roam a barren landscape as an unmanned drone flies overhead in an artist's rendering.
It could be a combination of 19th-century mechanics, 21st-century technology — and a 20th-century horror movie.
A Maryland company under contract to the Pentagon is working on a steam-powered robot that would fuel itself by gobbling up whatever organic material it can find — grass, wood, old furniture, even dead bodies.
Robotic Technology Inc.'s Energetically Autonomous Tactical Robot — that's right, "EATR" — "can find, ingest, and extract energy from biomass in the environment (and other organically-based energy sources), as well as use conventional and alternative fuels (such as gasoline, heavy fuel, kerosene, diesel, propane, coal, cooking oil, and solar) when suitable," reads the company's Web site.
That "biomass" and "other organically-based energy sources" wouldn't necessarily be limited to plant material — animal and human corpses contain plenty of energy, and they'd be plentiful in a war zone.
EATR will be powered by the Waste Heat Engine developed by Cyclone Power Technology of Pompano Beach, Fla., which uses an "external combustion chamber" burning up fuel to heat up water in a closed loop, generating electricity.
The advantages to the military are that the robot would be extremely flexible in fuel sources and could roam on its own for months, even years, without having to be refueled or serviced.
Upon the EATR platform, the Pentagon could build all sorts of things — a transport, an ambulance, a communications center, even a mobile gunship.
In press materials, Robotic Technology presents EATR as an essentially benign artificial creature that fills its belly through "foraging," despite the obvious military purpose.
That's false. I was only listing statements he had made. I want to see them corroborated in this thread. I never insulted. I merely asked for more reasoning or more evidence. I just don't understand these views. If I understood them and they were accompanied by evidence, I would be happy. I may agree - I may not. I don't have a lot of fixed positions on ANY issue and I love learning. These theories just seem so far fetched (and I've seen some far fetched theories) that they need some type of evidence other than a damn youtube link. I want written evidence. I hate the proliferation of youtube as evidence. What happened to the written word?
is that the grey goo robotic theory, i think i saw that on the science channel a while ago by michio cocu
Explain how youtube is different from the government re education centers. They show documentaries don't they those are videos are they not? How about you stop making excuses and use your facts to prove a point.
Nah it's just a supercomputer. It's called the Roadrunner, apparently it's the fastest yet (hence the name).
Schools don't just show documentaries. They also have these things called books. They read them and write papers on them.
yes im using road rinner right nowNah it's just a supercomputer. It's called the Roadrunner, apparently it's the fastest yet (hence the name).
Haven't heard of this grey goo, sounds interesting.
I hope you don't just believe everything you've been taught in school, schools teach their own false versions of history...schools teach what they want you to learn and believe.
thanks for these dude
Np I saw the people eating robots and was like omg...thanks for these dude
Talk about green jobs...
