I was feeling the same :D.

Boy, because of 500c you made me do all that? I was feeling like the Crimson Fleet treated me nicer here.

Not sure if that helps your research. We have an (very expensive “upper 4 digit region” they didn’t tell me exactly) DJI drone (an Matrice 30T if I remember correctly) at work that has the option of operating autonomously with a base-station where it also automatically lands and recharges. The catch is it’s like impossible to operate autonomous UAVs here because of airspace restrictions (that’s why we only have the “manual” version without that base-station thingy). I’m not directly involved in the department that operates the drone so I don’t have more in depth insights but maybe that already helps a little.

Fun fact, our military had to cancel a large and very expensive drone program because the drone (a little larger one tho) couldn’t get certified in European airspace (“Eurohawk” if you want to google that). So I’m not sure how easy it will be to hack something together depending where you are in the world and what restrictions say there.

I’m sure https://lemmy.world/c/pcmasterrace can help :)

Wet sanding (with appropriate sandpaper) makes a huge difference, especially for smaller grid sizes.

But it’s probably easier to just get some individual pieces from Bricklink.

It’s not really missing, there’s some life-insurance fraud going on.

Maybe you can use this to find more connectors that could match yours: https://connectorbook.com/identification.html?m=NT&n=lo_prof_1r_w2b_conn_1p2 It has a pretty handy identification tool (you can even browse by pictures). It usually suggests quite an amount of connectors but it can guide you in the right direction and you can look at the according datasheets to find out more. By the way the creator of this community made that homepage and a book related to it (or probably the other way round 😅).

Maybe they first have to make it worthless before trying to buy it.

What would be nice is when instances could merge their communities so there aren’t many dedicated duplicates, like I could imagine there are for example LEGO-communities on 7 instances and the according owners of those communities could initiate that they want to merge with others so everyone can post wherever they are but have a common community-feed.

Ah, so I’m basically posting into foreign communities through my home-instance :).

I didn’t know there are major differences between the instances (like the voting system). I’m basically here because the join-page suggested lemmy.world 🤷🏻‍♂️. But I like it here :). Still haven’t fully understood how these instances work or work not together but I like that you don’t need accounts everywhere you want to post something. Is there a single server that handles user authentication or how do other instances know my account? 🧐
