So, I haven’t really thought of buying a drone as decent ones have been pretty expensive, especially compared to how much I’d probably use one but this is probably the first to make me consider buying one:
It’s Chinese spy drone, though, so there’s that.
We used a dji nano 2 I think to film over the sea and it just went in :/
I understand there can be serious magnetic fields at play, I recall TOW missiles would go awry over water or other issues.

Well it wasn’t mine and I wasn’t flying it, but it’s supposed to stay at the same altitude and IIrc it uses an optical sensor to do it, probably in addition to GPS. And it somehow got confused by waves at one point and went in though the guy was telling it to go up. It was also behind a cliff so connection may have been an issue. We were considering deep water soloing on the cliff and we’re looking for a good place to get out of the water.

Is there a powder version of this “snow”? And I don’t mean cocaine.

Pakoon likes the yeyo.

Just another reason to go to Puerto Rico Pakoon!

You mean Miami, or “Little Cuba”.

Nah, I think I’ll head to Golden Triangle instead.

I have this feeling, call it a hunch, that people aren’t going to want to wear those out in public.

Put them on a supermodel during the fashion week and wannabe fashionista influencers will go crazy!

Or an Apple logo.

Not sure the article is worth reading, but this sub heading:
Sting led to cuffing of alleged operator behind Ghost – an app for drug trafficking, money laundering, and violence-as-a-service
“Violence-as-a-service” is a new tech fad I hadn’t heard of.

VaaS?

What if you’re not happy with the service? Is there a customer support line? Do you get your next VaaS at half off? Or do you call VaaS on the guy who failed in your original ask for Vaas?

Like everything else, you go to cheap AI/robots. Preferably from vending machines.
