@Fekdep: If that happened I expect someone at a close by air base would scramble fighters to take it out. Or, if the drone has the functionality, it could be remotely destroyed.

I built a custom HTPC and use boxee on it for my media....FANTASTIC. One of the best moves I've ever made. I just use "the renamer", move my files to the folder and BAM I'm enjoying my favortie shows/movies.

"What instrument do you play?"

I built an HTPC a short while ago, and I wish I had done it sooner. This is an awesome idea though, I've always loved the idea of integrating my computers with my furniture/home but I've never had the time or money. I don't understand why the HTPC idea doesn't get more attention, once you have one you realize how…

@David E. Curtis: That...that would be a new one.

@DustyButt: That's a decent one also...

Awesome prank, but something easier that creates even more frustration is a piece of clear tape over the chip on their CAC card...can't log into the computer :P....it's awesome.

@Black Knight Rebel: ...alright, that little cylon dog thing is pushing it.

@adammp.the.gamer: It explains SO MUCH!

Instead of doing this outright, why not do this as a reward for good behavior for relatively mild/non-violent crimes? Like an extra early parole (plus ankle bracelet). That way there's still a taste of prison without the gobs of money spent on an extended stay.

@imnotjohnnyramone: I'm afraid to ask what the others are and HOW they've been realized....

@Markarian: I was going to say (but you did at the end), much of this generation can't be helped anymore than you can change an entire generation of 40 year old Americans, the children having the tools to learn however...

@adammp.the.gamer: No...that's showdan from system shock 2.

@valkilmerisawful: ...and the taste your mouth demands.

@Ian Logsdon: You certainly are correct on the first two "noble truths" but desire is a human emotion still, it might not desire anything. We are really exploring the realm of "what if" here (and I love to explore that realm, haha) but what if the machine doesn't desire anything because it has no need. I've often…
