    Delivery drones

    They're driven by AI. They have cameras that use lasers, probably infrared, to see what's in front of them. So if you're walking on the sidewalk and step in front of one, it'll see you and stop. That being said, there's still a human on the other end that can take control of the robot requests...

    Delivery drones

    In this case, you have to wonder if the compartment is waterproof. :IDK:

    Delivery drones

    Yay or nay? Honestly, I would be concerned about the drone crashing or losing the pizza. Not to mention this also means delivery people will lose their jobs to technology. The delivery robots in LA are very determined. You gotta admire a robot trying to do it's best.

    Satanic Temple Opens New Abortion Clinic

    I sometimes think of what life would have been like if I had been aborted. Probably a lot less hassle, truth be told.

    Florida... again

    You got that right. The same with Jaws. The original was made with passion and vision. The others were made with dollar signs.

    Florida... again

    It's even worse after a hurricane. You have to drain the water down and shock the crap out of them with chlorine. Not to mention all the debris. Definitely isn't for the faint of heart. :nnna

    Your favorite books

    I'll have to look into that one. Wasn't it required reading in school at one time? Do you enjoy military stories, Matthias? They are my favorite. :Hnds

    Acts of kindness

    Wow. Wish I lived near you. I eat lots of eggs. :Hnds

    Acts of kindness

    I think acts of kindness are antithetical to the very cut throat and self-interested society we find ourselves in today. In other words, it's good to see. coffee:

    Do you like, dislike, or are neutral on Israel?

    I dislike how much influence they have in American politics. I don't oppose Israel existing as a country, however.

    Talks with Iran have failed. Trump says Iran will not be allowed to sell any oil, if they block Strait for other countries, US will block their ships

    This blockade is an attempt to starve the regime of it's money supply. I still don't believe it'll have the intended effect. The war began with the goal of regime change. That has obviously failed to materialize. The only way to achieve that objective is with a significant ground invasion...

    Is it ok for parents to use corporal punishment to discipline their children?

    Ideally the parent's voice should be enough to stop the behavior. If it ever got to the point where my step father had to raise his voice, I was in deep trouble. He usually only had to say that's enough for me to get the message. The worst punishment for me as a child was being forced to write...

    Is it ok for parents to use corporal punishment to discipline their children?

    For what it's worth, I was a kid once, and I hated corporal punishment. So I'm going to vote no. :funlaugh2

    The coffee thread

    I haven't descaled my machine before during it's 5 years of use. That changes today.

    I'm such a newb...

    Ironically, it was the lack of an argument that brought me to this point. For years, I only focused on the arguments. But it's sort of like living your life based on statistics; you can do it, but it's not very satisfying. I still enjoy listening to Hitchens. He was my favorite because he made...
