I was afraid of that. I hope he doesn't sign. he's not worth the money. I just want the comp pick.

It will be. But that technology just isn't anywhere near safe enough to turn loose 80,000 lbs of rolling destruction. With the seeming ability to hack anything, I'm not sure that's ever going to be an option. Definitely not in my lifetime.

World's first beer delivery by self-driving truck is made in Colorado

'... Anheuser-Busch, which said a self-driving truck with a 53-foot trailer last week delivered 2,000 cases of beer from its Fort Collins brewery, traveled south more than 120 miles along Interstate 25 through Denver, and delivered the brew to its Colorado Springs destination.



Still think it won't be happening in your lifetime?

That is not a question.

I'm willing to wager there was a human in the driver's seat. Maybe post the link.

What part of ' Still think it won't be happening in your lifetime? ' isn't a question?

I meant to post the link and thought I had,

'A human driver accompanied the beer delivery, but he wasn't driving while the truck was on the freeway. For most of the trip, the driver was in the sleeper berth as the truck completed the route, taking over only off the highway, according to Anheuser-Busch.'

Note that they were in a convoy which is the most likely way the technology will first be widely deployed.


Want to change your opinion yet?

No question mark, no question.

Wait til Russia hacks that truck, speeds it up to 110 MPH and rams a school bus. No, I don't. The driver was paid. I doubt he slept. No an unmanned truck rolls down the road in my lifetime(I'm 53 and men in my family tend to die in their 70s).

who's gonna win the w.s. and in how many games? and will you give a ****?

Odds that Chicago attempts to have a goat throw out the first pitch for the first WS home game?

CAN WE LEAP AHEAD IN TIME 17-25 YEARS, PLEASE?

Cleveland in 5, maybe 6. I'll give a mild ****. I watched 4-5 innings last night.

Goats can't throw but it's probably even odds that a goat will be present.

YE WILL BE DEADER THAN A DOORNAIL BEFORE ME, FARTLICKER!!!

How many minutes of NBA basketball will you watch this season?

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO "THE FIXX"?

who, besides bronxidiot, cares what happen to the Fixx?

Sometimes I fall asleep/pass out in front of the TV. I might be watching something interesting, nod off, wake up, see the NBA is on and take a couple minutes to find the remote. I assume I will unintentionally watch 4-5 minutes of the NBA. Unless I've got something heavy to throw within my reach in said cases, then only a few seconds. Better to break the TV than watch the NBA.

Never heard of it.

My guess is nobody because I've never heard of it.

THEM?

you never heard of the Fixx? A crappy band that was popular back in the 80s? "saved by zero" "one thing leads to another"?
