Pretty awesome.

Requiring everyone to carry a side arm also, will increase more cooperative social behavior.
A significant part of the video is dedicated to an opinion that using UARTS for peripheral communication is best. The reasoning for this contention is:
#1 It's been around forever
#2 It uses plain text to transfer information
#3 Everyone understands it
#4 It's been around forever
Correct me if I'm wrong, but a SPI generally only defines the transmission of a byte, whereas CAN defines the packets. Isn't another disadvantage of using a serial bus in this type of application the fact that basically we're looking at a "master/slave" relationship?
If I want to drop in a telemetry stream to my video down-link, isn't it significantly more effective to use CAN? With the vast amount of peripheral devices, servos, video, barometers, magnetometers, GPS and who knows what else (not necessarily needed for flight control), why is it better to use the controller for handling communication timing and then figuring out how to talk, when CAN does it so effectively?
I'm seriously soliciting more in-depth reasoning for preferring a SPI (using a UART) than what's been mentioned on the video.
Cloud seeding?
"block Microsoft Windows smartphones from "operating properly" with YouTube" or any other app.
They did a great job of that all by themselves (not to mention killing off a top shelf hardware producer).
Always a question. When's someone going to publish spec to allow control via GSM or any tethered connected device. Let US figure out the lag issues. Seems to make more sense than working on yagis or parabolics for signal or control.
Yes Mom and Dad,,., I wana have a control link and see my device via a public network:-)
"Regulate incompetently, fostering an environment of graft and corruption that fucks over the public (this is what the Republicans want)"
That's quite unfair especially you when you consider how the Clinton's changed the security trading regulations basically undoing regulation created following Black Tuesday.
Seems to me the Democrats did their fair share of rape and fucking of the public.
So,
Weed, Booze, Coffee, Cigs, Peyote good.
Coke, Smack, Barbs, Opium bad.
What about Shrooms, Acid, MDMA and Tryptamines?
And....uh... why should you be granted the right to make those decisions for me?
Just sayin...
Did we all forget Clinton and their Clipper initiative? Or has it just become easier to understand for Joe Sixpack?
So will this confirm compromised exit nodes allowing the network to heal itself?
Individual states aren't shorted sales tax when a resident buys out of state. If a new car is purchased from a state other than it's registered in, tax is forwarded.
This isn't thinking in the 50's this is standard modern political thinking. Protect profit. The politician is the president of the West Virginia Automobile & Truck Dealers Association and apparently owns dealers in Kentucky.
Tesla basically had ZERO chance here.
Looking at Clear's coverage map there looks to ample coverage for most of that county and all of the county if you care to engineer a custom antenna solution. It's cheap and unmetered. Might not be a perfect solution, bound to be better than LTE costs.
Mr. President,
How do you take pledges and a philanthropic effort to the bank?
How about taking three days of the money you reportedly send to the NSA (at the low estimate 10.8 billion) then you can actually make a claim of funding, instead blowing of smoke up our rectums.
HOLY MACRO!
