      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:

      Sep 8, 2024

      I tested the DJI Neo and it's so good that all I can think about now is flying it

      I tested the DJI Neo and it's so good that all I can think about now is flying it

      DJI knocked it out of the park with the Neo

      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.

      Ahti and Wellamo don’t like their picture taken.

        Sounds like pilot error.

        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.

          Snow is obsolete! We could build ski areas in Puerto Rico with this stuff!

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

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

                        If no set of moral ideas were truer or better than any other, there would be no sense in preferring civilized morality to savage morality, or Christian morality to Nazi morality. In fact, of course, we all do believe that some moralities are better than others . . . . The moment you say that one set of moral ideas can be better than another, you are, in fact, measuring them both by a standard . . . admitting that there is such a thing as a real Right, independent of what people think, and that some people's ideas get nearer to that real Right than others."

                              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.

                                    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?

                                          BBC: Amazon says workers must be in the office. The UK government disagrees. Who is right?

                                          It’s strikes me as weird and even inappropriate that a government would push a pro-WFH position but, whatever, there’s some interesting data in the article.
