I’m a Tanker in the US Army, tanks without crewman are certainly something to praise, the only issue is that so far, the time to load a round in the main gun automatically is still about 3-4 seconds longer than the average loader in the tank it self. That’s a lot of time in war.

@@AWGragg007 idk bro. I guess I just don’t really see the point in anything like that - because something is going to go wrong no matter what. Which is why police should be receiving more training and not less. Let’s be real, if there was a riot - people would have equipment with them “just in case” to potentially take advantage of the situation. Idk. I just don’t really see the point. Because it could easily result in something bad happening and then the police not being able to protect themselves when they need to.

Maybe those watch activated handguns aren't the best idea, I could mention a few pros that traditional firearms have over those new tech guns...like that you don't need a watch around your wrist for one thing, and there are no computers involved. So I pretty much agree on most all of the things u said. I think we're both just making different points, neither is necessarily wrong.✌️
The thing about pykrete - that ice ship was unsinkable. The pykrete was absurdly resistant to torpedoes and bombs, and that was the main selling point of the concept. The bat bomb would have been extremely effective, and iirc, there was one test fire where they made a test wooden Japanese town and released the bats over it. It made a firestorm and reduced the entire place to ash. But, the atomic bombs were ready by this point and were a BIT more reliable than suicide fire bats.

I bet that was really interesting to hear about and even cooler to be on a team to be able to be involved with it, that’s awesome, the only cool thing any of my teachers ever did was one of my middle school teachers was the conductor of the train in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes that killed buddy lol he said they wasn’t informed that in the scene someone would be on the track for a death scene and you can see him run to the window of the engine and look out to see someone standing on the tracks in one cut, then he showed us to watch the coal coming out of the stack on the engine and you could tell that the film was reversed and lil neat stuff like that. He said that the stunt man was insane and would run and jump between the wheels on the train when it was rolling at cruising speeds and would roll out the other side of the train. He said he was worried there would be a legitimate death scene in the movie with that nutcase doing all that, but IYKYK “the secrets in the sauce”

You should do a deep dive where you look into all modern technology and research that is likely to come out in the next 20 years or so and do video on what the future might look like in 100 years. Could also do a series on it for different possibilities.
The AA-12 does not shoot like a rifle. Effective range of 75 meters. It’s still just a shotgun.

It's a good idea, but for every sensor there is a way to defeat it. A suspect could, for example, have a gun made with materials that don't trip the sensors, or place it in a pocket lined with a material to block them. Besides, a simpler idea is just to make body cameras mandatory, and make it a felony to turn them off/fail to activate them for any reason during the course of an officer's duties. You'd be amazed how cautious and professional people are when they know they're being watched.
