Okay that was me being a little smug - it’s just a fusor (and it’s mostly dismantled), but it sounds so much cooler if you call it a fusion reactor…

My family are all pretty used to my esoteric magpie habits, but if it was a rando person and assuming my friends came through on their promises about the box in my closet that needs to be burnt before anyone else sees it… there are a lot of options. It’s a six-way tie between the box of 2’ long molybdenum disilicide foundry heating elements, the remilled RPG-7 (anniversary gift), the 11 steamer trunks, the 16’ paper mache snake (I don’t actually know where that came from), the fusion reactor or the signed first edition of Uncle Fester’s “Silent Death”.

(Honerable mention goes to the weirdly high number of harpoons that are just scattered around)

Basically, yep. This drone is designed primairly as a target drone; since one of the things the US most wants to be shooting down is Shaheds, the form and capabilites are very similar for training use. (It’s supposedly a more advanced version, anticipating developments that Iran et. al. will likely (or have already) rolled out. Who knows how true that is, though.)

AR glasses could be great - I’ve had a couple dev pairs and there’s real potential to the tech. But they all suffered from a total lack of developer support, which was a real problem given they were banking on outside devs to fill out their app stores. The snap glasses here seem like they’re going to have the same problems as the apple vision and microsoft’s hololens (which was SO GOOD why the FUCK did they never release it?? Fucking M$…): the initial userbase will be tiny due to the price, thus there’s going to be few hobby devs who can afford to buy in and there will be no incentive for the professional devs to invest in developing such a tiny potential market that relies entirely on a single proprietary piece of hardware.

What we need is for there to be enough standardization that we can port apps between hardware so all your time invested in development can’t be tossed into the bin of history at the whim of Snapchat & it’s shareholders.

Wouldn’t the answer be “for what?” I’ll help a friend out with medical payments or car stuff if they can’t commute no problem - if they’re asking me for cash for something dumb, I’m probably not friends with them in the first place.

Also you have no idea what wavelength they actually are, so your safety gear (you do have safety gear, right?) may be totally worthless!
