I too am curious how they will do the edges, valleys, ridges. I found this tile installation guide from a ceramic tile manufacturer that gets into a lot of detail on the tricky parts.

you do realize the judge in this article is the SAME Judge William Alsup? So, I'm having a hard problem with this current situation. The Judge learns programing a few years ago. Then has problems with FOSS and GNU now...

my self driving car better have a GOTO or else

wish i had mode points to mod this funny

jodido, I'm sure you realize this, so this is more for other people.
The NSA and its predecessors have long worked with telecommunications companies who willingly hand over data without warrants.

here is a starting point as an overview...

Yes, yes it does. You dont know if the drone owner was spying or not
take a look at this video:

It'll show you what typical drone cameras see at different heights.

In this case, all a pellet has to do is get in the way of a flimsy piece of plastic/carbon fiber rotating extremely fast. That will easily break a propeller. In this case, the only real damage from the shotgun was breaking a prop or two. The rest of the damage is from the crash.

just so I understand you correctly, you are saying you have the right to shoot down a drone that flys over or even hovers over your yard? As opposed to other options, such as trying to talk to the owner. Or call the cops. Or anything else?

I was trying to make 2 points:
- hobbyist drones are not spy devices. Look at the videos produced from them and people will see.
- Firing a weapon in an uncontrolled environment should be reserved for situations of imminent bodily harm. (Controlled environment being a shooting range or similar. Not a residential neighborhood.)

please look at this video:

In this case, the ipad app stored the data. I use APM Copter on pixhawk controllers, and am not intimately familiar with DJIs. In the case of the pixhawk, the telemetry is stored on flash. There is also a separate radio for telemetry and MAVLink commands.

So a remote computer, ipad, or android device could also log the telemetry as thing happen.

The card was gone when they got it.

If you look, it is a microsd card, with no locking mechanism on the outside. It most likely flung out with much force when it hit the ground. When the quad crashed, it probably turned/tumbled a few time flinging the card out in an unknown direction. Have you ever tried to find a microsd card in your yard? (Good luck)

The altitude is relative to the take off position. We don't know the topography of the area around. If the drone took off from an elevated from normal height, that doesn't make his actual altitude lower. It means it is higher

I own and fly quads. I'm usually flying to get images/video of buildings, architecture, and land. Large object that film very well. Not people.
hobbyist "drones" are loud and are not good at spying on people.

If the shooter had gone and talked to the drone owner, he would have seen what limited view the owner has.

In general, the shooter is in trouble for shooting a gun, not damaging the drone. If the drone was down at 10 feet, then you would be within your rights on your own property to toss a net onto the drone. Maybe you could use one of those air cannons that shoot shirts. Again, if the drone is within range of that, then I highly doubt you will be arrested and/or charged for firing it.

That is not leet crap. If that was leet crap, sjames would have used a 1 for both of the "i"s
Most likely this is coming from a joke. Error ID 10t
Take you high UID and go crap on some other board. dice is doing a fine job of crapping on this one all by themselves.
