Naval Notes From Around The Oceans

Artist's Concept from D.A.R.P.A.
Add ships on the loose to the list of potential robotic worries, as the U.S. Navy christens an "experimental, autonomous warship that can operate for months at a time without a crew", ensuring there'll be no freedom on the high seas, even post-apocalypse. Scroll down here for a photo gallery. Local perspective. Other locality: Portland, where the Sea Hunter was built & christened. Also w/ gallery.

Think we're beyond the Colosseum? No, the people still want to see death! (Preferably in a car. The masses do get a bit squeamish at the sight of real blood.)
