Look Sir, droids!

Two stories this week concerning our increasingly mechanized military.

The first one involves self-driving supply trucks that allow the humans riding in it to spend their time looking for roadside bombs.

Personally, I'd reverse the roles but it's progress I guess.

Next story is a tad scarier. The Brits have basically built a Cylon Raider which they call the Taranis. Read up on it here.

So, um, Skynet may not have been so fictional, eh?
