We're All Gonna Die!

*** if eating lunch, do not read ***

When I was working at _________ Chemicals, I remember reading a monthly safety journal that would showcase an accident every month. One in particular caught my attention. It occured at a Ontario plastic injection moulding facility (not of the same company that I worked at).

Anyways, there was an injection moulding machine, where the plastic to be moulded would be moved in by conveyor, the machine would close, and the process would occur. Well, something jammed up around the time of the lunch break. The supervisor wanted some regular guy to go in and fix it, but the guy wouldn't, since the supervisor wanted him to do it in a hurry, without engaging the safety lockouts and securing the machine. So the supervisor climbed in. Unknown to him, infared lasers would detect when a new object was inserted and close the machine automatically. Within 1/4 second he was compressed by a force of around 5 tons to a thickness of 1/2 inch, and then his, umm, remains were pushed down the conveyor by the arms in the machine.

Rather sick and gruesome, but as it's been said, safety is no accident.

fuck the machines!!! micro$oft = cyberdine systems

weve all gotta use the communist operating system (linux)

We're all gonna die so what's the difference? Except time, but that is pretty much it.

people don't kill people, INSANE KILLER ROBOTS kill people :(

FUCK ROBOTS

ALWAYS TRYIN' TO TAKE OVER OUR SHIT AND SHIT

It's all just like Blade Runner. Will robots be allowed to vote if they are even more intelligent than humans in the future?

Fuckers. Love it!

Stupid Shack Contest #3 : Make you own robot!

Build your own robot, program it and send it to Steve. The best robot will update the Shack for Steve and the winner will have his own EVENING READING (the robot not the guy of course :)

Ad if the robot breaks, it Marteen's fault!!!

For those of you here who have a brain (all 2 of you) this should be an interesting read...but why would I expect you 'tards to actuall read anything semi-intellectual:

but i use the communist OS linux because it is the most popular *nix strain

way to go zdnet:

"One of the most familiar robots in our culture is R2-D2. Until recently, this cinemabot was run from inside by pint-sized actor Kenny Baker. But this year, in the ultimate irony, George Lucas replaced Baker with a computer."

too bad that was only a rumour, and has already been dismissed by the LucasArts camp.

doesn't anyone check their articles for facts anymore?

sheesh

The Three Laws of Robotics News Stories
---------------------------------------

A robot news story must never be written without the sentence "They're coming..." somewhere in the first 10 words; alternatively, the first sentence can be "Get ready for the robots."

A robot news story must never fail to warn readers that their jobs will soon be taken by robots, while omitting to mention that most reporters' jobs long ago were filled by robots.

In terms of cliches, stupid prognostications, and sheer ignorance, a robot news story should be indistinguishable from a story about politics, a field colonized by space aliens who have so far been successful disguising themselves with the same haircut.

want there some SNL sketch about Old Glory Robot Insurance about 5 yrs back? that was some funny shit ;p

if someone can find a clip of it, linx0r it here

/me flexes

Just remember .. if more than one robot is chasing you, just run through a doorway and chances are their AI will jam them in the doorframe.

at least until the patch comes out

a robot can't take over my job.

Why am I wasting my time on the shack? I got studies to do! FUCK!

You'd think nobody ever saw Terminator or RoboCop. Sheesh.

I need some robot insurance because there arms are strong and made of metal.
(Does anyone else remember that SNL sketch with the guy from Law & Order?)

Even if they don't kill you, they will probably take over your job. Fuckers.

Just like computers were going to take over everybodies jobs?

They sure did, I mean, we'd all be doing such interesting stuff right now if it weren't for computers stealing our jobs right?

AHHH HELP!!! THEY'RE ALREADY HERE! SOMEONE TELL JOHN CONNER TO GET HIS ARMY READY!!!ARRRRGGGH!!! AHHHHHHHHH

Robots are fuckers.
