Boldly going into that cyberpunk future where corporations have the legal power to shoot civilians

Underground, you say?

I'm escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by leftist agitators... UNDERGROUND!

Just try not to dig too greedily and too deeply, Mr. Fink.

The lines on this image are too sharp. I need the biggest line blurrer you have. No, that's too big.

✍datacenter without a datalink is largely useless

✍by nature of physics datalinks have to run uninterrupted for 1000s km

calling that hotline to get someone out to show you where to dig

I need to know where the fiber optic cables underground around this location are so I don't damage one. No I don't own the property, just doing some smol bean contract work in the area.

[–] Carcharodonna@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’d think cutting power would also be fairly easy? Seems silly to think anyone would bother with drones when they are fundamentally defenseless in numerous ways.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

as i observe usa adventurists, i conclude they ain't intellectual people, and safely shutting off high voltage power lines require at least some degree of forethought

The funniest thing here is that this dude thinks a $3000 disposable drone is accessible for the average american

People will be 3d printing parts and making them for $100-200, the only thing that's really missing is a full project guide like the Plastikov 3d printed AK47

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not just 3000 dollars for a drone, but for what would probably have to be a suicide drone. Not counting however much it cost to build the payload.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

It's not even really the drone part that's hard, it's the addition of a trigger to remotely detonate a payload part that people need a guide on. There are cheap fpv drones that would work and there are 3d printed drones that already exist but the extra detail that the layman currently lacks is adding a trigger and payload.

[–] PorkrollPosadist@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Drones are sexy, but don't underestimate the capabilities of a large slingshot and incendiary projectiles. These things are supposed to be several square miles in size. You literally cannot miss them.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah but I think the main factor here is people wanting to do it and avoid being caught.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

i think pointing your hunting rifle at 45 degrees and taking some potshots from a mile away is an underexplored american option. maybe because you have to do a little maths.

[–] Bronstein_Tardigrade@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 month ago

Maybe it's time to go old school; trebuchets and guillotines.

[–] ConcreteHalloween@hexbear.net 29 points 1 month ago

Wow that is really concerning, can you explain how one would construct such drones so we can be on the lookout!

They can't afford to put them underground. They can't even afford what they're currently making.

[–] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Please billionaires, save yourselves! Take the AI and go underground! I'll keep watch over the hatch to the outside, it'll be perfectly safe.

What's a good cheap drone one could buy these days?

[–] NeelixBiederman@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Potensic atom is under the 250g threshold for faa registration

[–] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

Did you say you were interested in R/C aircraft? They can be found for under $100!

[–] mcheva@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

There are guides to build cheap fpv drones from aliexpress. Can buy tethers too if you want.

[–] programmer_belch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 month ago

I would need to know where the air intake of those underground centers is. I want to clean around with ammonia and bleach, making it double clean

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

Governemnt cannot afford them but they will pay for the centers and give them tax breaks just long enough until they collapse.

[–] pierre_delecto@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

No problem, quikcrete is easier than drones
