USAF already recruits gamers to pilot Predator drones, which is a better reflection of their skill sets

I actually remember posting something like this several years ago.  War becoming more like a video game probably isn't a good thing for humanity, especially when the computers turn on us.

Are we actually living in the same universe as that Adam Sandler movie Pixels? We already have an inexplicable President like Kevin James in that movie  and now we're going to train gamers for the military? I just hope we don't hire any of the ones associated with Gamergate. That needs to be considered in their background checks.
