    Fan Controlled Football

    Heard of Twitch Plays Pokemon? In 2014, a streaming platform put up an emulator and a bot that took letters in the chat box and made them inputs to the game. Somehow they beat the game (and a bunch of other versions after).

    Drone vs 172 - Canada

    Assuming it's a SkyRanger R70 or similar - it's a pretty hefty heavy-lift quadrotor. For comparison the Phantom 4 series is 3 pounds, Mavic 2 series is 2 pounds, and the R70 is around 10lb. Not sure if that's sensor equipped or not based on the datasheet.

    My dad thinks that anyone who gets cancer and can't afford insurance or treatment can just "go get a government job". Easy peasy. :rolleyes:

    I am not proud

    I have a picture of me next to their Falcon 10 that went through our FBO back when I was a line guy. Didn't even know they were hangared overnight until I walked through and stopped in my tracks!

    UAS Cert Question from Private Pilot

    Yep, just study up, set up IACRA, suffer through scheduling with PSI, go take the exam, get your temporary cert, then your real cert in the mail "later". Don't have to even mention to anyone you have a Part 61 cert.

    Ok Fl pilots, which of you caused Falcon 9 to scrub

    So impressed with how smooth the landings are. Really nice to see it without video hitching from the boat once in a while.
