Merry Christmas ya filthy bastards.


They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I'd have been truly impressed if the characters would have been animated.

Makes you wonder how far off an all-drone fireworks display is.

Give it time. These things get better every year.

Pretty neat, but drones are creepy.

They already did that here in Utah last year instead of fireworks.

That took somebody a lot smarter than I am to figure out how to do that. Pretty spectacular.

That beech mayor in SLC. Screw her and all the stupid bastages that reelected her who hate such things. Glad I don’t live along the Wasatch Front!

The camera drone was also pretty amazing. If you watch the clip, you see the camera drone flying thru the lighted drone display. I’d be afraid of hitting one; there were so many. Guess that was computer controlled as well. Would almost have to be in sync to avoid a collision. They made it look easy.

All that with AI thrown in, our future could get pretty interesting, maybe a bit too interesting.
