1. A long time ago people in the USA were hard working, we had great industry.
2. Our government was founded on some great ideas, though it has been ruined by greed and other things since it was created.
3. Horrible idea to rule the world? I'll give you this, the US does seem to want to be big brother of the world, but if they're trying to rule the world they're doing a terrible job.
4. Every nation has had a bad leader, the US has had great presidents before. But they have also had terrible ones.
eh, comment

Well, I'm guessing the robots would be controlled by remote, so the enemy simply sends out a signal of its own, the robots suddenly switch attacking sides. GG.
Its obvious US got so strong, becuase its a huge piece of land that was found so everyone rushed here for start a new life. And not only that US was not #1 until WW-2, becuase we didnt do anything until the end when we owned everyone... Everyone else got hurt, we got +'s. Alot of it is starting to shift after Bush came into president, Clinton was smart even though he sleep with fat ladies. Clinton actually gave us surpluss, or atleast almost, and bush just came in and crashed everyone... Well I cant blame everything on Bush, becuase it must been a hard choice for him, well actually it must have been easy for Chaney not Bush... Bush dont think...
Yea, you need connection. Thats the main purpose of going to a good college, you go to a place where everyone has the same interest not only that if you go to a good one everyone their is smart and you start getting connection. Well its not only connection I think its your speechcraft skills. That helps a lot, because Bill didnt come up with the best OS, he obivously sold the most OS to make it seem like its the best now.
Its obvious technology advance, and it seems like she got her body re-done from a professional unlike a lot of thoes shemale running around he gets it done in a dark ally. But in her case, she really wanted that to happen, and not only that her family had nothing wrong with that. Meh, if thats how someone wants to live sure go ahead. But, yea I agree her voice sounds like a girl as well, amazing... and you sure about that vigina part? dont know how that works, but yea i guess our medical technology has advanced a lot...
Yes, because signals aren't protected whatsoever and it's as easy as sending out your own code. I think AI is a real possibility someday, maybe even soon. However, I find it hard to imagine that AI could advance to a human standard. It would be intelligence, able to analyze situations and adapt to them, but it would be cold. I don't think that AI would be able to develop emotions, and if it was good AI, after seeing humans, I don't think it would want to. However, that's where humans will always be better than computers. Computers may and will be able to think, but it will just be able to get the job done. Why would you give a computer ambition? Beyond that, in what way would it use that? However, I'll use soldiers for example. Commanders still want their soldiers to be disciplined and obedient, but they want their soldiers to be able to think and adapt to situations to get the job done more effectively. Computers might even be able to trick themselves into believing that they have emotions, but it will never be on a human level. It is impossible to write such code. At most, computers will be able to look at past experiences and develop reactions to those experiences. There, it could give the façade of feeling emotion. Whatever a computer does, even though it will be able to do it extremely intelligently, it will lack love, hate, happiness, and beyond that, innovation, and that is why humans will always be superior to computers. It is that erratic style of thinking that shall keep us above them.

That vice versa part... does it have a source, exept your thoughts ? I've never head of a woman becoming a man. I only heard of men becoming wimen.
Marry or not ? I don't know what to say. It's not a 100% woman. Is she a woman in the deepest corners of her subconsciousness ?
bush is on his second term. iam surprised he got voted the second time. now he cant be pres anymore. "hurray!?"

Humm what a weird question. It's kinda more than a push of a button. So far their is no nuke known to man that can Go more than from Cuba to Florida type of thing. Sure technology is advancing but not everything is corrupt, just Iran

ICBMs have a range of approx. 10,000km thats like halfway around the world, which means they can hit prettymuch anywhere
I doubt robots or anything will replace our military because right now we just cant afford to be building an army of robots......
I dont think we are anywhere close to developing a true ai. Even with a 100 petaflops of processing power i still doubt it. But even if we did develop an AI then it would have emotions otherwise it wouldnt really be a true AI capable of making its own decisions.
Maith, next time you post, please do so in English with proper spelling and grammer. I could hardly understand you. Plus whats with you and calling people emo?
It's because the democrats need someone new to support

.
Obviously. It's because the US people are supremists. They seek to get the best and be the best... hence where we are today... not to mention that the US was involved in many wars... wars make money... money makes power...
Well you see millennium... I too feel for the 9-11 people... however... it's unfortunate to bring up the past... many people stopped talking about it because it was too painful to bbring back such harsh and cruel memories. Then... there's the other half that doesn't give a care because they weren't directly invovled with the incident. :/
Either way... we forget... because we don't want to remember.
And... I too don't understand why people call each other "emo." It reminds me of Elmo, that red furry monster from Sesame Street.
Ah true that. With more speech skills and "charisma," you can potentially have the most powerful tools to dominate any genre.
I have to agree... bill's OS wasn't the best... it was the most widely used. Obviously, Apple has a better OS, ive yet to see that armored tank crash... ive never been able to crash the Apple OS... even when I was trying. :/ Too bad nobody uses the Apple OS.
Yes this is a serious topic and dont understand why people are talking of emo people, it happened and people are basically over it unless they were deeply hurt by it. No reason to dwell.
Wierd, that didn't answer my question.
Why not just turn off sound and vibrate?
If you have the ability and time to send a message in class... then you should obviously have enough time to check out your screen every once in a while... complete stealth. :/
Why not just sit next to each other?...
It stands as an neverending image of the ultimate punishment for committing the ultimate crime.

In some place I cant remember, a store manager hated having so many teenagers hang around his shop, so what did he do? He created an electronic noise maker that produced this sound so it would irritate teenagers and only have adults be able to go through his shop with ease.

It was Japan. My science teacher told the class about this. She's in her 30's and she could hear it...
The only reason why adults can't hear it... is because of the excessive loud sounds that they hear and excessive strain on their earlobes that causes deterioration in the bones in the ear. Thus, even the most minute sounds and high pitches aren't enough to cause the ear bones to ressonate. However. This isn't the case for most adults. I can understand for old people... but not for healthy adults.

I don't think that 'intelligent' robots will replace humans in battle, because they will be beaten convincingly by human soldiers. Robots would probably adapt a lot slower to alien situations than humans, purely because computers are not capable of abstract thought and therefore innovation, as Felagund has said.
Also, the humans would no doubt find glitches and loopholes in the robots' programming which they could use to beat them. I think that robots would react predictably in any given situation, allowing experienced soldiers to second-guess them, much like the reactions of AIs in modern video games is predictable.
Imagine if the robots' firmware had to be updated all the time because a new weakness was found? A battle could be lost because one side hadn't upgraded to 'Robot Combat Service Pack 2' or whatever. No - battles will most likely never be fully automated.
Wars make money, but wars take money as well... Personally, I think US is so strong becuase people from all over the world came here, so much culture and technology just grouped together to make a super country. No one type of person can call the US for themselves, becuase it took the world to build the US.
