Ha. This is funny because we talked about it in my Bio-Medical Engineering class.

These have been around for years. My drone rigger controls a bunch of these to spy on Mega-Corporations.

Get the cliche right!

It goes like this:

Pentagon developing insect cyborgs for spy missions, finding Sarah Connor

Sheesh

Wasn't this a Tom Selleck movie?

Ha ha, just for kicks I thought I would share what is being said on DU about this:

What is coming in the not-too-distant future are small, inexpensive, lightweight "microcopter" drones, armed with scaled-down automatic weapons. Just imagine--thousands of the little radio-controlled critters flying around taking out those nasty terrorists (or those nasty unpatriotic protestors)

and my favourite wacko viewpoint of the day...

Aids didn't work well enough. Let's unleash another horror.

Come on freepers, share with us. If this has been posted there, what is the most extreme, wacko post on your website that made your eyes roll?

damn liberals trying to shoot down technology, but only when it has to do with keeping this contry safe from terrorists. you know, that's practically treason, i saw we start rounding up the Dems about now...

How can researchers justify the time and money put into this project when all it takes is a can of Raid to negate it?

Aw man, is that Runaway? or summat like that.

I had gene simmons in it as the baddie, and a gun with bullets that went round corners!

They're also testing a 20-ton robot.

Talk about covering all their bases.

No pun intended.

How about cyborg stinging insects that inject deadly poison into their victimes.. Too much possibility for abuse? :)
 
2006-03-15 10:09:22 PM
i know about these cyborgs.
it is real. very real.
you all think you have all the answers
and you try to talk like you know what it is
you are talking about.
but you have no idea. none at all.
if you did, you'd be rethinking your lax attitudes.
i'm 100% serious about this. no BS.
You should think before you post next time.
 
2006-03-15 10:10:36 PM
I always thought that bad movies needed more naked cyborgs in them, but this isn't exactly what I envisioned would happen in real life.

Pentagon is like living in a fantasyland, says Rumbsfeld. "Farking sharks with laser beams stealthfully patrolling the oceans, robot armies of mass destruction fighting battles 24/7 and they don't complain about the body armor, now insects that do whatever we tell them to do, like hide in hotel beds and seek out weapons that don't exist."

The X-Men have already dealt with microscoptic sentinels.

I guess this means that the Pentagon will soon be able to be tracked with insect cyborgs.

Malachamavet: Dr. Hank Pym is not impressed.


I totally agree. His cybernetic helmet would enable him to takeover any cyborgs that got in his way.

Oh - and I just remembered the impaling robobugs from Ultimate Fantastic Four.

The insergents in Iraq are kicking our asses and all they have some old russian machine guns and a couple '86 Dodge pickups.

How are cyborg bugs going to stablize Iraq so our brave soldiers can come home?

If they spent more time trying to win the war in Iraq instead of inventing cyborg bugs, our brave soldiers would be home by now.

It won't. But it sure will make some politicians and their tech industry "clients" a lot of money. And maybe a few Pentagon staffers might make some cash under the table in return for procuring the contract.

Yes, by all means sink more money into the war on Iraq, instead of finding a way to stabilize the country. (Hint: killing more Iraqis is not it.)

Friend, friend, friend. Didn't you get the memo? Not only was the mission accomplished, and an end to all major combat operations called, but the mere THOUGHT there might be a civil war is... ludicrous.

The CIA once used a cat to spy on the Russians during the Cold War. Turned out badly, the cat got ran over by a car once they let it go.

Weary of two decades worth of Terminator cliches,
a haggard Sarah Connor contemplates just letting the
f*cking robots take over so she doesn't have to hear
about it anymore....

in reality, you may only have a couple generations left.
