Skynet is alive!

Or, more musically:
I said, Hey! (Hey!) You! (You!) Get offa my cloud computing!
Hey! (Hey!) You! (You!) Get offa my cloud computing!
Hey! (Hey!) You! (You!) Get offa my cloud computing!
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud computing baby!

So Arnold is looking to play the Terminator again. At an age most folks are retiring, he plans to star in an action film. How would you handle that if you were writing the script?

Make him a robot and CGI his face to look younger, a la Tron?

Cast him as the guy on whom the model was originally based? He's now much older, and is surviving in the post-Skynet landscape, dealing with a robotic (CGI-ified) doppelganger, as well as a few other terminators who look different?

Maybe Terminators' fleshy outer skin will age normally.
 

I like the idea of him playing the older human that the T800 was modeled from.

My T5 script - Pick up where Salvation left off and tell the story of getting Kyle Reese to the time portal thingy. Arnie's older human character helps them even as he's also sending the first T800 back...because he realizes the paradox.

OR...Arnie's human character tries to prevent Kyle Reese from going back in order to completely undo history and correct the mistake of helping to build the T800s and Skynet to begin with. Arnie ends up being the bad guy again...sort of.

OR...well, something along those lines anyway.
 




Danny I swear we were separated at birth...
I hate social networking sites (internet for the weak willed), twitter (who care if you are sitting on the couch scratching your private areas), and text on a phone is just silly, its a phone, if it's that damn important CALL THEM!!!!

Yes, I know, I sound like the old guy with the walker yelling at the kids to get off my lawn, but I remember a time when I was on the forefront of technology. I could program in 6 languages and recite HEX and Binary like English, then they allowed people like Paris Hilton to use computers... It went to Hell in a hand basket soon after. I remember when you used to have solid math scores to use a computer not I got a C in math....once.

Am I bitter, yes, does it do any good, no, but I don't care, that's my rant and I'm sticking to it - oh yeah, DOWN WITH SKYNET!!! :devil:

needing to be good at math is BS. I was a C student in math, but a genius in programming. I taught myself 6502 assembly when i was in 6th grade. I've written 3d transformations, geocoding algorithms and coordinate calculation for route optimzation.

Most of my work involves databases and business apps, but I've written drivers, PXE bootstraps in x86 assembly, installers, SCSI protocol tests, test automation engines, etc.

Math mainly comes in for mapping, graphics, encryption, compression, and RAID algorythms.

I've been coding for 30 years, got a patent, got an HP badge, and I say "Math is Hard and you don't need it to program most things." But you do need to be smart and good problem solving and algorthm skills.

That said, I do wish some math nerds would hurry up and get some sentient neural networks running so they can take over the world and try to wipe out humanity. Just to shut up the people who kep harping about computers taking over the world...
