Re: When Robots Attack!!!
Our problem wasn't the laptop--it was people.
See, a couple of the guys on our team wanted to test drive Bob the last build night, and they turned on the RC and OI. They forgot about autonomous mode.
I'm working on something else, and it's moving around computers and tables and such. So I spring for it, reaching for the breaker. Just then, Bob makes his pre-programmed turn to the right, aiming for what would be the ten-point ball.
Unfortunately for me, that aim took his arm right under my foot. I got him shut down, but I also took out a chair on the way down.
(On a side note, that was the third time I'd tripped on something that day.)
