Not to disagree or argue, but I think you could look at some of the positives here. They decided to dig after only two faults. That is not too bad, really...someone taking responsibility to say it needed to be fixed right, and implementing the solution. Yes, agreed, they could of followed up better, but the guys in the field with the shovels are generally not the customer facing reps. The website is likely updated by a day worker, so did not get the report in before 5:30 pm, and would not be updated until the next morning. That said, I've never dealt with BT so have no preconception of their level of typical service (but at a guess, it is a bit .

I shall no doubt use this in the near future. On a totally unrelated note I've been asked by Scum to rate their service, what could I possibly say?

That depends on whether they've already given you a MAC code.

Automatic Australian BAR Rifle from WW2; fires kinda slow, but the shells are big and you could probably have a great time blasting chunks off the robot.
Or else somebody needs to build an EMP grenade.

You probably wouldn't want to set an EMP off in your own garden considering the number of unshielded electronic devices you likely rely on ...

This is true. How about an EMP gun then? Like in Sky Captain?

I'm all in for vacuum valves. They do not care too much about EMP...

This buyout (Boston Dynamics) is only the latest in a string of robotics companies that Google has acquired.

I just watched a segment on Ch4 news about it, and they said Google has bought 7 companies in this field over the last 7 months

With the first one or two I figured it was just billionaires buying cool toys - after all, whats cooler than robots? But now its a concerted effort - there must be an endgame.

Lasers won't work, and take too much power. Build a large Tesla coil in each corner of the yard, triggered by a cheap motion sensor from the hardware store.
