Technocracy

noun

the government or control of society or industry by an elite of technical experts.

No mate, this is plutocracy. Technocracy implies knowledge, expertise, and facts dictating policy and direction. What you have is greedy rich fucks wanting yet more.

There is a fundamental difference.

It's for an LR drone. What people use for pushing the range limits on a quad. The 25mW Walksnail challenge for example.

Well, kinda. They'd make their own from bulk cells, but you get the idea 💛

"Retire"?

He's still a "thing". People were stanning the cunt just last week for installing Linux on his new gaming PC FFS.

This timeline is a fucking crass joke.

Calling bullshit on that battery info RE: FPV drones matey.

That's a 4000mAh 4s Li-Ion pack. No racers use Lithium Ion, and definitely not 4AH.

That's a long range FPV pack, and it'll go for about half an hour to an hour on an appropriate LR quad.

A typical racing machine will run on 6s 1300-1500mAh Li-Po packs which are significantly lighter and smaller than your provided link, as well as higher voltage.

Not in my experience.

Yep. Stupid does as stupid is.

It always was.

Natural selection means your genes don't survive in the long term.

Either you don't survive to procreate, or your offspring don't because of a behaviour you exhibited as a parent or some trait you passed on to them.

This is natural selection. The environment is ill suited to absolute stupidity and ignorance, it's just that civilization has protected the aforementioned morons so far. (Mostly as a side effect of protecting the vulnerable, a worthy goal)

Now that the morons are in charge, well, good luck to those that rely on the support. Nature doesn't discriminate though, so the stupid and ignorant will die in droves too.

"Weird Shit" is always a possibility when there's any power at all in the system. The PSU will keep low level power supplied for a surprisingly long time after being unplugged from the mains. 💛

EHCI (system config) data was corrupt. Possibly from pulling the GPU while the motherboard board still had power (or residual power in caps).

CMOS wipe resets to blank and that data gets rewritten after BIOS runs the "wtf is plugged into me" routines triggered by blank data.

That'd be my guess.

But they're winning! And fucking over "the libs" at the same time!
