Ronny’s Thoughts

In an ever changing world, technology is king. The more you know about it the better you are off. Today’s top tech is the tech that kills. There are many innovations in the battle field. The sort that are the most popular are those that need no man to operate. Thats right autonomous killing machines. Machines that need only a general target specification and they will take that target down. With out hesitation, with much greater precision, and ultimately much faster and efficiently.

There is a business that (for as long as humans exist) will never die. It is a known fact that humans invest more money in war and weapons than many other things. I think the only other is tech and fashion. Well, probably not true but the point is that it is something that people invest in one way or another. This means that there for ever will be a market for it. because of this many companies seem to want to get in the weapons design business. Not that they will start making weapons but that they will see how their product can be modified for the battle field. For example Boeing. They make airplanes and jet engines for commercial purposes. During WWII they made military planes by modifying their passenger planes. Later in the future they actually build a jet fighter for the US army. I don’t remember who won the contract but the point is that they made something specifically for war. As airplanes go there are very few companies that are involved. Companies that specialize in guns is a different story.

For the most part they can pump stuff out like candy. This is because man has been making guns for a very long time and it has the largest killing streak. There have been many innovations over time as to gun design and production. There have been 3 major innovations that made the gun the ultimate killing machine. The first of which was the rifling of the gun barrels. This is where spiral groves where mad in the barrel so that the bullet is given a spin. This spin makes it so that unequal masses in the bullet spin around so that it reduces the bullet curve. Then there was the second innovation but this time to the bullet. The shape of the bullet went from a ball (used in muskets and stuff like that) to conical. This Made the bullet more aerodynamic and in turn more speed and distance. Then the last major innovation was the cartridge. This made it so that the bullet and the gun powder was now one unit. This is very important because it made them much more reliable because the gun powder would no longer get wet and not fire. This innovation is also very important because it made loading guns faster. MUCH FASTER. True that guns are small and can only kill a few people at a time. Well thats were bombs come in.

Explosives are big in the world of the military. Explosives have grown over the years from simple accumulation of gun powder to complex explosive polymers that are many times more powerful than gun powder. One of the most popular explosives is trinitrotoluene (TNT for short). This stuff was used with no restraint. It became most notorious in the mining industry. The popularity did not stop there. Due to the low regulations of the stuff it became popular with criminals. Eventually TNT became a unit of measure for future explosives. This is most distinct in nuclear weapons. With the use of tons of TNT to measure the strength of nuclear bombs. Yea sure nukes are big and all that stuff but to say the truth they have only been around for a short time compared to the gun. Then there is also the fact that they have only really been used twice for actual war purposes. They have since become a very popular. In fact so popular that now in days the hardest thing about making one is getting the explosive material. This was demonstrated in a 1986 movie “The Manhattan Project”. Where a teenager built a nuclear bomb in his garage. Cool movie but a few errors hear and there.

Technology comes into play mainly in the area of making these weapons more deadly by removing the human aspect. Making weapons autonomous is still one of the most sought after innovations around. Airplanes and other air crafts can be made autonomous with greater ease than many other vehicles because they don’t have to worry about that many obstacles. Helicopters are a different story. Although they are not capable of doing air dog fights they are still quite useful to reduce the strain on a pilot from a long flight. There has been on plane on the planet that could only be flown by computer alone, not even remote control. This plane was ridiculously fast. the speed of the plane created G forces greater than that considered safe for humans. It was so fast that using radio control was out of the question because the signals would not have the response time needed to control the plane. These planes would be flown for a few minutes at top speed and then slow down so that the control can then be taken over from base command.

Guns as to this date are still quite manual due to the simplicity of the weapon. But future guns are sporting a microchip that can tell who is holding the gun. This a cool because it will make it so that unauthorized users can not operate the weapon (this will be hacked in days just you watch). They have also implemented a system where the bullets no longer have to be stacked in a magazine to them be loaded into the firing chamber. They are actually placed in the barrel one behind the other. They are ignited using an electrical pules, rather that a striking mechanism. They are trying to make it so that they can use conventional bullets as well so that the transition from old is not so hard. They have also been able to incorporate small electronic circuits in the actual bullet themselves. This gives a bullet a few extra capabilities like detonation at a certain range.

Bombs have also been technologically advanced. They now carry small cameras that are used to guide the missile for a short distance. Thats just for the short to medium range bombs. The long range bombs are guided by a few more sophisticated systems. There are bombs that are guided by a simple laser pointer. But for that a soldier would have to be near by to point at the target. The more sophisticated systems have GPS that using satellites in orbit can guide itself to the predetermined destination to with in a few feet. Using this system they can also have the bomb detonate at a predetermined height. This is innovative because the use of bombers is no longer needed the bomb is it’s deliverer.

Computers now in days are really powerful and people themselves are able to use them to make robotic apparatuses. There are high school students making robots that are controlled by a computer. Using simple C++ programing language. The internet makes this task that much simpler by providing the knowledge that is needed to make all these things. Not to mention the support from other enthusiasts. The YouTube video that inspired me to write this post is from a person that took his know how in electronics and the know how of others to make an automated gun torrent. Although his is for recreation use it is not hard for some one to modify it so that it works with a real gun. Then add a few more parameters as to what to shoot or not shoot, then make it bigger and more durable and its all set.

Considering how long human history is and how it has for ever been involved in war and death, it is no wonder why we find it so simple to create something that can kill rather than something that can save lives. I am not saying that people are not doing their part in that area its just that we don’t do as much as in the area of death. The point is that I have some good ideas for weapons of death.

These ideas are for the most part not new to the wold of science fiction. The problem is that people have this notion of weapons that use some sort of electrical power. What the fuck is up with that. If there is some thing that sci-fi has taught us is that energy weapons can be deflected. What ever happened to the notion that bigger is better? I talking (typing) the truth. People are all into this high tech weaponry stuff and the thing is why fix something that is not broken. Lets forget about the special doodads that we keep trying to implement. I say find a way to shove more energy into a smaller space and its all good. For example, large caliper fire arms. Like the Smith & Wesson Model 500, Desert eagle, and the Barret 82A1 (M107) or Accuracy International’s AS50. These are guns that fire a .50 caliber bullet. Normally these guns are just too much for the human body to handle.

Thats where i come in. If we can have machines take care of all the heavy work why stay in the box. Lets make giant walking tanks (mechs) that will fire large (bullshit large) caliber rounds. All i need is a good understanding on how to use SolidWorks (fabulous CAD program) and ill have you a prototype in a year. Then to top it off have like 4 different variants. One will be heavy and chuck full of fire power. Another would be stealthy and wicked fast. The other would be… Well i dont know but the point is that there will be things that they will all have in common. Things like the ability to go under water, flight is a must, and best of all remote control.

I know what your thinking. “Ah… dude that idea has been taken… its already been thought of… it’s all over cartoons and stuff” Bla bla bla bla… ok cool but has it been actually constructed? There have been some attempts at this but with shit results. Link to a vid. I assure you that some thing better can be accomplished with time and actual thinking. Not just a “Hey lets build some thing today” sort of scenario.

I would start just tossing my ideas up on the blog but that would be dangerous. Not to you. I mean me, because then people could take my shit and i am sorry but this is one thing i wont be sharing. ITS ALL MINE. ALL MINE I TELL YA. MUA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

World domination, world conquest, global domination all mean the same thing. To take over the world. What changes is how one can do that. If you ask any one what taking over the world means they will tell you that it has something to do with ruling over everyone in a manner that is similar to how God would rule if God where evil. The thing that people fail to see is in how many different ways one can rule something. It is not just telling people what to do, when to do, and how to do. There many more aspects to this. In fiction the super bad guy (super villain) is always known to constantly try and take over the world. Although never successful the SV (short for super villain) the bad guy time and time agen is there to stop the latest attempt. The SV always gets away and bla bla bla bla… You get the point.

I have always been a fan of the SV. Simply because I thought that I could do better and actually take over the world. There so many mistakes that an SV in fiction makes that is part of the story to extend the plot. Then there are things that they do that is just stupid.

One of the things that piss me off about SVs is that for some fucking reason they think that he should keep his rival looked up. Why? Why in Gods name would you deliberately take the “hero” to your lair? My strategy is simple, kill em on the spot. That’s what I would do to any SINGLE person/entity that tries to stop/foil my plans.

Then there is the fact that for some odd reason the SV is always looking to become GOD LIKE in the way he rules. Do you know how much work that is? It’s like being all the branches of government at one time, and then some. That is bound to fail because every one in the world will revolt you in no time. Unless you have some sort of hold over them. Like the destruction of the planet. This gets me started on how I would rule the world. Its simple really. YOU DONT. Why would I bother myself with telling people what to do? I like that there are people that want to do their own thing. I would hate a world that every one thought like me (as much as I think it would help rite now). I much rather own the planet than rule it, although you will get some power that is very similar. The way I see it is simple. I like to make things, to better man and most important better me. As selfish as are all my intentions I know that they would never happen with ought every person on the planet. I am not saying that every person is entitled to a little bit of that (because I hate some 20 to 50 percent of the people on the planet).

My way of ruling mean that everything will go on as if I had nothing to do with it. The difference now being that I own the planet, similar to how one owns a house. I become in some way the parent and tell the kids, “hay stop running in the house” or “hay no fire crackers in the house”. In the case of the planet it would be something like “hay no bombing in the planet” or “no mass murder of those people that believe in shit that you don’t”. Then there will be the part that I will have my own part of the house to my self. For some it is the den, or the basement, and others the garage. For me that sort of place is not on the plant, so that means that it would have to be built. Yea that’s rite my own giant lab where I will continue to make things that will better the planet that I own. This is all good and all as long as people don’t start to fuck things up. I also want to be able to say “hay China, I need 20 cases of mango”, and a few HOURS later (not days) I have 20 cases in front of my door. This may seem like an abuse of power but the way I see it, I own the fucking planet, and all the research that I do is to invent something that will make your lives much better. So a few cases of mango is nothing. I could also have asked Mexico. The produce allot of mango as well, not as much as China but still allot.

All that sounds good and all but getting to a point like that is the hard part. As you all know in order to take over the world your going to need a some sort of military or military like support. I much rather prefer robots. The only problem with this is that robots don’t think like humans so the help that they can provide is limited. This means that you would have to give very specific instructions. Or if I don’t want to do that I would have to start growing or building an artificial mind that is similar to any human in every way. That goes back to my Programing/Artificial Intelegence post some time ago. The problem is the thing that makes robots not a very good choice is what makes them a perfect choice. They are cold calculators that go by the rules and instructions given to them. If I change that then I might as well have humans in robotic suits. This is cool because I won’t have to go crazy with programming an AI. The problem is that they will be humans so it’s harder to send one into battle like that because a human is irreplaceable. Know what I mean? An AI can simply be copied. Or if you can just have one giant central computer that controls each robot independently via wireless link. If I had to use actual people then I probably would go with female minions. Why? Well because it is well known that women have a way, way, way better ability to handle multiple tasks at once. They also (with training) can do just about anything. If there is something that requires strength then simple, robotic exoskeleton. Or if they would like the brain can be transferred completely to a bionic suit. The last reason why I would go with females is simple, “WOMEN ARE HOT” ^_^ Come on lets be honest. Would you rather have an army of smart, multitasking, hot women or a bunch of duds that all they think about is the next time they get paid or laid? Yes I know not all men think about this or like this but for the sake of making a point.

Now last but not least what am I going to do that will make me owner of the planet. Well that’s a bit hard to say. What I would like to do is invent something worth so much that the people of the planet just have no choice. There are many things under this category. Things like “the fountain of youth” as many know it. There is also the world’s energy problem. Last but not lest, transportation. For example if I can make going from one continent to another as simple as standing on a teleportation pad then there is no ware we can go but forward. Yea I know I would have to rebuild the laws of physics or break them all. Well a guy can think out there so what ever. For the most part I guess starting off small is good. Start with small inventions so that you can make cash and then use that to make even bigger ones. So on so forth.

There is one guy that I think is cool because he wants to take over the world, is Known as Dr. Steel. Full name Dr. Phineas Waldolf Steel. He has big ambitions. The problem that I have is knowing if he is really about this. I say check him out he’s got some good ideas.

To finish it off I will be starting my own world domination fund. Crazy you say. Dumb you say. Well…

Mother Time Keeper is the name I have given to a theoretical program that keeps time in a stop watch sor of manner. Yes I know that there are hundreds of programs that do somthing similar to this. The thing that I am making different is how it functions. I am not sure if the other programs out there do the same thing but what ever. Well I thought about this last night as I try go to sleep. I wok up in the middle of the night and wrote a reminder in my pocket not pad.

The program will be a multy platform application that rather than actually having a timer like fucktion where you stop and start and it has to be on to keep time, this application would actually keep track of the time and date of when you press the start, stop, or pause button. From that it has the ability to then calculate the time and then display it in a stop watch like display. This means that the program dose not need to be running all the time. Also because it is merely just a recording of when a click happened it is also possible to simply keep a file that is just a table of recorded clicks. Making it posible to view the timer any ware, on multiple platforms or even devices.

The name I though of is because of the giant father time clocks. The problem with father time clocks is that they are known for just keeping time of the current time. Thats boring any clock can do that. On the other hand if there was a mother time clock then she would be able to keep time of multiple events and stuff. Also not to sound sexist or anything but women do that shit with ought even trying. So why not give credit where credit is due. Yea but seriously how the do women keep track of this shit?
