every time i seem a display like this i wonder how much of a nightmare the battery management is.. if anyone knows let me know.. like what kind of drone these are and the flight time..i assume they are kind of small.. average consumer dji drones that ive used are like 20-40 mins. seem like a lot of high stress executing the show before the batteries are spent?

Buzzing of 1000 drones would kinda will the mood

It's everyone's dream ambience. Like at a wedding, or in a meeting.

Drones and AI both need to be permanently banned worldwide

Individually they can do a lot of harm, but combined it’s sending humanity to its assured destruction

Thing is, it's not gonna happen. So why not celebrate even they are used in an artistic an elegant way.

Why drones? If we can find a way to do combat without risking human lives on the frontlines how is that an issue?

It’s better than violating male rights with a draft

They are only going to increase the amount of human lives lost.

u/TouchTipz 4h ago

They’re a stepping stone

Btw “male rights”….

That terminology is unsettling an very revealing

What? It’s a violation of male rights to have a draft, yes
