Psssh, just setup a RAID safety perimeter. Add in one of those low-frequency mosquito sound emitters to screw with the spook with the headphones on.

My bio weapons pwn their bio weapons.

They're also working on bigger animals. This video creeped me out a bit.

Wow. I can't help but laugh at it when it's walking but also creeped out at those life-like legs, especially since we were talking about cyborg insects, and with the name Dog, at first I thought it had real dog legs but a cyborg body, lol.

Eh, this outta cheer ya up a bit:

Funny.

They dog looks like a better design. The guy couldn't kick it over on ice,even. (well, it looked like ice to me)

 

I want my portable EMP turret now.
It's simple. To evade high tech go low tech, lets go back to code riddles like the middle ages.

 

That's awesome !! Especially when it recovered from the kick and the slipping on the ice. Why were you creeped out ? I think Cyborg insects are much creepier, and completely unethical if you ask me..

 

Weird. It's been calculated that we Brits each appear on CCTV around 300 times a day, as we go about our daily business. There are 17 at my workplace alone. But, like most British people, I don't see this as an intrusion. I find it comforting to know that if I'm attacked, or if I fall down a manhole, someone somewhere will probably have captured the evidence. We seem to have a completely different attitude to them than Americans do (you're not the first one I've heard to express discomfort).

 

there is this device I saw once of...that supposevly emits a pulse of some EM waves that disrupt any electronic gadgets anywhere in radius of 200 meters. Just think of having something like that to clear the area of the DARPA's kits.

 

thats why this happened actually

The government is only saying that as to spread fear and paranoia that the government is powerful enough to do such a thing. They won't actually just spread bugs around to spy on people. The best they could hope for by sending in a 'spy fly' is to catch a man cheating at solitare. They'd only use that kind of technology for things like catching terrorists. I bet Saddam is swatting every fly he sees now, though.

 

I've actually seen a completely android (completely artificial) spider, the only way you could tell it wasn't a real spider was it didn't have hairs on it's legs for "feeling" web movements and it had no Mandibles or Eyes. What also identified it as being artificial was the two "probes" that jutted out from it's rather rounded head looked very much like the silicon coating of diodes (A plush red colour) and that it's overall make up was similar to an ant by having three segments (a head, small chest section and then large body section).

Whats interesting for the Android type of spider however is the mechanics behind making it functional, however I can't go into detail as to how it moves or what it was built to do.

 

Thats some pretty crazed out technology. Our next step would then be to grow some Camel Spiders with chips in them, wouldn't it then be possible to hunt down Osama? (facial recognition software, add deadly poison.... or something) But maybe that would be the expensive way around? HHHHMMMmmmm

 

Top secret shite,eh?

 

I doubt the U.S. is the only country looking into this kind of technology.

 

Here is a description of two very different ways ubiquitous surveillance can turn out:

Would you care to live in Brin's City Number Two? (I hardly need to ask if anyone wants to live in City Number One!) And if you do not care to, why not?

 

umm can i just point out that there is one difference better minority report and constant servalance. Minority report relied on the fact that it was charging someone with something they MIGHT do where as video servelance just gets evidence of what they DO do.

Of course thats by the by because i dont like the idea of some creep watching me have sex for instance or go to the toilet or scratch my ass or whatever but still its not exactly minority report by any strech

 

I actually asked my USAF recruiter if he thought the military should have ultimate control over something like that, he said no. Personally I could care less, who the hecks gonna watch all the bug cams? We aren't far enough along in tech for the bugs to figure out your doing something they don't like and flying back to their "nest" to report. Wired magazine did however mention that face recognition has allowed them to track suspects (which had to be marked as suspect) along different networked cameras. Alternativley you could just move out to the country - there's a lot more bugs but none with electronics inside.
