But if it were, we would be ready to throw him under the bus in a heartbeat. Bad behavior is bad behavior. We’re not in a cult

Yeah honestly space x is rocking it because of the immense talent of the team that exists there. They do over 100 successful launches per year now. It has transformed the space industry as humanity has ever known it. That’s fucking cool.

I think you’re right. The asteroid literally kamikaze’d itself so the analogy actually works quite well

It’s ok, if anyone wants them back the smash brothers melee community has them all in the back of their car

Is genocide denial not racism?

Yeah honestly let’s make an example out of that horse

Defederating sends a message that the world doesn’t like tankie bullshit

Exactly. Why are we federated with people who deny genocides? Fuck all of that

I’m all for defederating from tankie instances. They suck.

Arguably, the average person will not care. My mom will probably buy one because, and I quote, “Your phone takes good pictures!”

Benchmark tests don’t matter to normal people

Squicks. This is a new word, but I approve.

I actually fly these things as a hobby 😅 it’s telemetry data sent directly from the drone. The reason they are always low battery is probably because they fly them pretty far out to avoid getting detected and killed.

Once the battery hits 3.2V or so, you can really start feeling it in how the drone flies. It just doesn’t have the power draw remaining for much else. Usually you land at that point to avoid destroying the battery, but in this case… You can fly it down to 2.8ish and still be in the air, but it won’t like it and the battery will be damaged.

Battery was running low. If he could have lasted another 3 minutes or so he would have survived.

I’ve actually played this game with my brother before (with a small drone, no explosives lol). It is actually surprisingly fun.

Couldn’t they just use cloudflare or something?

Yeah rule of law is the worst

I’m just curious, how did you miss that? 😅 It was the biggest story in tech like 6 months ago

I’ll tell my mom that

Honestly Lemmy sucks because people here are all try-hard assholes who are incapable of seeing nuance. Anytime I comment on anything I somehow end up offending some segment of the Marxist left. Which baffles me because I’m rather far left as well, but they are too caught up in trying to prove I am an idiot to realize I’m literally on their side on 99% of topics.

It’s pretty discouraging and I’ve kinda stopped wanting to interact here.

Taco trucks just park wherever they want and deliver delicious tacos to the world. Zoning laws be damned

Do you think that insulting people is going to be effective in helping them change?
