- sieabahlpark 7y agodrone strike Good thing I'm thousands of miles away from where it would be deployed.
- whatshisface 7y agoRight up until the Second Civil War, or potentially one of the riots leading up to it; or maybe in one of the 2030s ICE drone incidents in which stray missiles accidentally struck American border towns, or that one time in 2049 where a terrorist obtained control of one... Or potentially one of the domestic terror security drones that were actually active in 2016, but whose existence wasn't publicly known until 2029.
- CleaveIt2Beaver 7y agoRemember that time the police crashed a drone into their own SWAT van? Pepperidge Farm remembers. https://gizmodo.com/police-drone-crashes-into-police-5890507 https://gizmodo.com/police-drone-crashes-into-police-5890507
- prepend 7y agoNeither is there a data category, fortunately.
- manojlds 7y agoInventor of Skynet kills humanity.
- bredren 7y agoThere were survivors of Judgement Day, and not to spoil T2 but inventor Miles Dyson was not killed by Skynet.
- dillonmckay 7y agoHe was killed by law enforcement, right?
- bredren 7y agoNope.
- tbyehl 7y agoBut how did he die in the original timeline?
- bredren 7y agoHe held an explosive over a dead man switch and bled out.
- tbyehl 7y agoThat was the altered (movie) timeline.
- Retra 7y agoWhat other timeline is there?
- tbyehl 7y agoThe one before people / machines went back in time to alter the past. We (or at least, I) don't know what happened to Dyson on Judgement Day the first time around.
- Retra 7y agoAFAIK, there was only one timeline, it was just a closed loop. Skynet was built using technology from the first Terminator (and presumably would never had been developed otherwise.) John Conner knew to send Kyle Reese back in time because his mother told him who came back in time to be his father (and even gave him a photo taken just after the events in T1.) The events of the first few movies play out as inevitabilities.
- frou_dh 7y agoProbably already has happened to someone writing embedded code for some kind of powertool, lathe, etc.
- Cthulhu_ 7y agoBitcoin power consumption causes global warming, humanity went extinct from extreme climate change.
- jraph 7y agoThis made me smile. What could possibly go wrong with a money rewarding GHG emissions? When you think about it, if successful, Bitcoin will indeed achieve its goal of freeing us from central banks: no human being will be available to operate them. Very clever!
- at-fates-hands 7y agoI've always wondered if this was the initial point of Bitcoin (making miner harder and harder) how could Satoshi not have foreseen this was would be the inevitable result? I've read several articles about the power consumption of these mines and it's jaw dropping: Of course, by the end of 2017, the players who were pouring into the basin weren’t interested in building 5-megawatt mines. According to Carlson, mining has now reached the stage where the minimum size for a new commercial mine, given the high levels of difficulty, will soon be 50 megawatts, enough for around 22,000 homes and bigger than one of Amazon Web Services’ immense data centers. https://www.politico.eu/article/this-is-what-happens-when-bitcoin-miners-take-over-your-town/ https://www.politico.eu/article/this-is-what-happens-when-bi...
- boeing737max 7y agoBoeing 737 MAX engineer killed in a 737 MAX crash ?
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 7y agoProbably because they forgot they wrote it or they didn't know someone else was using it too.
- amelius 7y agoBecause they would just hit Ctrl+Z and rollback their mistakes.
