Games on a Plane
Author: Dallas VonKillbot27 Aug
After booking flight tickets for a slew of upcoming weddings, I realized that I’m going to be spending a decent amount of time on planes in the next year. Sure I could read the Skymall Magazine, but looking at pictures of automatic dog feeders for 4 hours gets a little boring. I decided to search around the internet, and I found a little diversion that’s good for some chuckles.
In-flight entertainment
If you’re sitting next to someone on a plane who irritates you, try doing this:
1. Quietly and calmly open up your laptop case.
2. Remove your laptop.
3. Start it up.
4. Make sure the fellow traveller who is annoying you can see the screen.
5. Close your eyes and tilt your head up to the sky and move your lips like you are praying.
6. Then click here.
*AHAHAH-LALALA-LALAlaalALlA*. Jihad, bitches.

And I remember when I got a phone that could take pictures I was pumped.
Since 2004, a team of professors and students from the University of California, Berkeley has searched for ways to let a single human supervise a team of robot planes. Now, this Center for Collaborative Control of Unmanned Vehicles has a new device for ordering around its drones: an iPhone.
In a video taken from this month’s Teaching & Technology conference, the Berkeley crew uses an iPhone to pick tasks for its drone squadron, input a set of coordinates for a local reconnaissance mission, and send the planes new orders while the aircraft are in the sky.
But don’t tell Steve Jobs how the Berkeley folks are using his gadget. According to the terms of the Apple Software Developer Kit agreement, “applications may not be designed or marketed for real-time route guidance; automatic or autonomous control of vehicles, aircraft, or other mechanical devices; dispatch or fleet management; or emergency or life-saving purposes.”
