Who van tell me what they're saying?

Sounds a bit like there's an insult in there. "Where's the wanker hiding" or "he's jacking off around here somewhere" or something of that nature, idk?

Machine translation or just very direct? Anyway, thank you.

Thought as much, seemed very prescriptive of a translation and sometimes when the language are that far apart, you need contextual interpretation.

Like back in 2016 I had a Huawei P30 pro which had a live translator already back then. All I had to do was mimic some Russian/Chinese sounding sounds, and it'd make them into a somewhat reasonable sentence. Or like at least words, if not a sentence. Now they're much better, but still, they lack context for idioms and whatnot.

Like the translator back then was so desperate it was kind of hilarious, but sharing me mumbling something vaguely Chinese / Russian would ve sounded pretty racist so I didn't film it to post it or anything. I understand pretty much nothing of either language, but the general sound, and maybe like a "thank you" "i love you" or smth. Anyway.. Yeah.

Thanks.

Wow, they're willing to use expensive thermal optics on a suicide drone?

They’ve gone way down in price!

FLIR Lepton Sensor for $100. Probably cheaper for volume and maybe a less known brand. For a suicide drone you could probably also accept parts that fail QA. Only needs to last less than a day and who cares about a few broken pixels.
