I got to tag along with a friend today and fly a drone while he was taking photos of private cross country skiing trails for the owner. Keeping two meters apart of course. I want a drone now, I can see having a lot of fun with them.

Drones are a lot of fun...I have a few of them, but haven't flown in a while...not since last fall. I actually got a new one on a Black Friday deal and haven't even unboxed it completely yet...a DJI Mavic Pro that supposedly has a range of like 4 miles...which is insane, and very illegal. I have a smaller DJI Spark that I can definitely fly out of sight with and that's scary enough. It's so easy to get disoriented, but they have a return to home feature. Now i want to fly!! That's a beautiful farm in the photo!!

He let me fly it around once it was at 120 meters and there was nothing to crash into. At around 1,100 meters away from us it started complaining that the signal was degraded and it wouldn't go any further. I found it really disorienting, especially when it's coming towards you and the controls are reversed. If I just looked at the controller and not the drone in the air it was no problem. I didn't ask how much they cost, but I'm assuming a lot. I think it would be fun to fly one to the top of the cn tower or over Rogers stadium. Probably be another toy that I'd get bored of after using it a few times.
lol don't tempt me. I'd be buried in a shallow grave if I spent money on a toy right now.

A drone that is also a 3d printer is well on its way to becoming the von Neumann plague.

Have you read the bobiverse series? It's kinda that idea but with spaceships. A guy who was cryogenically frozen wakes up a 100 years later to discover he's the AI on an interstellar probe with 3d printing and nano tech looking for habitable plants. Really well written with great comedic moments.

I was going for irony but there seems to be a lot of the typical ‘paranoia’ floating about

Water is turned back on for the back yard irrigation. Have one more connection to make from a valve to the drip line hose. The post I concreted in to hold the hose wasn't pressure treated so the termites ate it off at the dirt line. I have some copper treatment so I'll pull out the old concrete and treat the 4X4 then put it back. Getting close, I'll put up a pic before I bury it. It will be nice to have in case something happens in the future.

Atypical paranoia. You’re new, unless you are one of the flood of malignant sock puppet accounts that have affected the vibe of this subforum. Your choice of story for entering here was not good.
On the chance that you’re a legitimate newcomer, I figured you might want to know why this reception. If you have a sense of humor and of decency, that’ll show (or not) in due time. I suggest a somewhat lower-energy approach. We test everybody, and we treat the survivors like family, which might soothe or frighten you depending on your family experience.

In summer they should save a step and just pipe live steam to us

I haven’t! Shame the library is deemed nonessential, leaving me to binge serial crap on Netflix.
