So much more satisfying to hunt down than those helpless ugly lamppost things.

Meet my 3D printed anti-drone drone, collides with flock drones @2000 feet and costs 15 dollars in parts on Ali-express
dronikaze #132, here you go!
These fuckers just won't give it up.
The tech bros aim for neo feudalism with AI surveillance control.
They need to start getting reminded that they’re weak little nerds
Please bro, just let us watch your every movement at all times. Why you have to be like that.
"b1tch-ass fuckers" corrected
I believe that skeet shooting needs to become a popular hobby and skill in this age of drones.
Pretty sure there are like emp guns used specifically for taking down drones without projectiles that might cause collateral damage. Though you still have to worry about where the drone falls
If the drone falls out of the sky and hits someone, that sounds like the fault of the person choosing to fly it in a densely populated area. Drones have hardware failures all the time.
I believe the term is yeet shooting when the target is at 2000 feet.
spray-and-pray
So now you don’t have to go to the range for target practice? Neat.
I see Gadget Review pop up more and more and I've started liking their content less and less. The editorial guidelines say they use AI right on the page you linked. And if I scroll down and click on a random article , it's AI generated and based on a tweet by CSAM poster Dom Lucre. It's not the first article I've seen that's basically repeating a tweet from some extreme looking Twitter account either.
Because they're getting pushback from towns, but can still use the air.
I've never wanted to own a high powered sniper rifle before.
No need for hi-powered. A 22lr is gtg, now for longer ranges a higher caliber could be used but a 22lr can easily get to 300 yards, probably push it 500+
Be careful though. Shooting at drones is a federal offense, they’re categorically aircraft as far as the law is concerned; even if hovering over your own property.
None of those are remotely close to 2000 feet.
Not that you'll even be able to see them from that distance.
yeah because the feds have shown so much reverence for the rule of law. Fuck em
