There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Who would have thought. This reminds me of Blade Runner and Terminator.
In Blade Runner, the androids are so realistic that they have to design them to only live 6 years, and with some, the only way you could find them is to give them a psych test to see if they had empathy, (love or care), which if it didnt, ZAPPPPO! (if it was being hunted down, rogue unit that did damage to humanity, etc).

That's what I was thinking Henry. They became just like people....
That is a brilliant movie! Love the Audi sports car with round wheels.
I'm putting my money on it being more of a Terminator scenario.

The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes on-line August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.
