HOW ABOUT CONTROLLING THEM TO STOP SHITTING ON EVERYTHING?

Chinese scientists are finally beginning to catch up with military engineers in America with their announcement that they have created a remote-controlled pigeon. Xinhau News Agency reports that China’s Robot Engineering Technology Research Center successfully implanted electrodes in the puny brain of a pigeon in order to command it to fly in whichever direction they wanted. Of course, this is kind of old news since remote-controlled rats, fish, mice and monkeys have already been tested by the U.S. military. But don’t think you’re safe from the controllers. Last year a Japanese company unveiled a helmet which was able to remotely control a human by shooting small jolts of electricity at the brain. (The Telegraph)
