You could say the same about C and D batteries too.

They’re all 1.5V

Interesting idea,

But search sites currently can’t find anything in lemmy.

So how will they link to this?

Yeah, have you seen the size of those? Those are chem lasers in order to get the wattage needed to destroy something.

Plus you need the electronics/mechanics to track the device perfectly to keep the laser on target in order for it to do damage.

All completely unnecessary to drop a small drone out of the sky.

WTF, how can they just make a change like that, and it get approved to be on the road?

Youtube comment,

Tesla that crashed into a pole, it was on fire, and the driver was trapped behind the laminated glass. Scary situation.

The first in crew that responded had a firefighter try to break the glass with a conventional window punch device, that didn’t work.

Then he tried smashing it with some forcible entry tools, that didn’t work either.

The driver ended up dying. It took 45 mins to extinguish the flames and 15 mins to get the car doors open.

Nah, lasers too big. It would be a simple birdshot shotgun. Its detection and aiming.

When they are high up, they can be hard to spot and hear.
But a pair of sensitive mic’s and a camera designed to look for them could easily be paired with some AR glasses.

What sucks is that us hobbist’s can’t get FPV, motors, ESC’s, or batteries at reasonable prices (if at all)

The reality of it, is this is short lived.

Anti-Air meant for small drones like this is coming and soon.

And it will shut these down quickly.

Yeah, that isn’t going to work, because either

  1. !>25% of your population doesn’t believe women have that right

Vote with your wallet

I did.

I bought my 3080 back in 2020, because I knew AI was the future of graphics, based on all the R&D and white papers nVidia was pumping out up to that point.

No regrets.

Not my problem nVidia was the only one to invest in the tech, while AMD relied solely on TSMC to shrink their dies.

It has nothing to do with brand loyalty or fanboys or any of that shit.

It’s just straight up better tech.
