It’s not about money, its about power. Don’t be so naive. You don’t have to whitewash these horrible people. They want to help out the baby killers to spy on you. That’s all it is.
Why buy a new car? It would be cheaper to build your own car at this point. You can also spend money on reliability and strength, instead of surveillance. There is absolutely no way in hell I’d ever buy a new car. The culture has deteriorated too much and the people making cars don’t give a shit if the American economy implodes because no one has a car. America is about to become Cuba.
We need a way to ban bots.
I just assume anyone I see on TV or in the mainstream, is an intelligence agent. You never see a single person on TV that isnt completely insane. The first time I heard that guy speak, I knew he was a spook. They would never allow someone who wasn’t a spook to speak about politics or war or whatever on the news media.
There were some good journalists, but I’m not even sure if there is a single place in the world that an actual journalist could be safe. These days it’s usually the cops going after journalists and stuff on Trumped up charges like we are living in Russia or something.
I would fly that bitch everyday and twice a day when I’m drunk.
Very true
You can do it now but it’s expensive. You could also just put a really big battery on it and make it fly further but that makes it expensive and makes the propellers big.
As the propellers get bigger they cannot spin as fast because the radial velocity becomes massive and the blades cannot hold the force. The ideal way to build a drone like this is to actually have many smaller electric fans with two turbines running generators that power them. It’s safe and performant and more durable.
I think a cooler idea is more bike like platforms, something around 750 ibs, that can fly and hover. Maybe with articulating sections like a Gundam or something. Covers the face and blocks the wind a bit for comfort. That would be cool and maybe more like new car priced.

3000 lb is very optimistic for a passenger vehicle, even a car. Most cars are not 3000 lbs. Only the smallest ones are. It’s probably possible by using carbon fiber and plastic and composite components.
The real issue is cost. Right now a decent car like a flying vehicle that can carry 2 or 4 people is going to cost around 500k without big markups. The twin engines alone are going to be pushing north of 200k. If you go with batteries you can do it much cheaper but you are limited to 1-3 hours of flight time per day.
If you go much smaller like a 600-700 lb drone bike thing. You could probably get away with 400 HP inline 4 cylinder which is not easy but it’s doable, but it’s dangerous because you don’t have redundancy. With a twin engine drone you can lose an engine and still land and recover from anything. Parachutes only work when you have a bit of time.

I think too much safety is annoying and stupid. To me safety is often about mindset. I think companies like to force a bunch of stupid safety rules on people so they can try to get out of being sued for doing really dumb shit like hiring drug addicts or people with zero experience to do dangerous jobs. I think it’s really insulting that as an adult, you have to be uncomfortable all day and deal with stupid stuff to work at a job you are being massively underpaid for anyways.
Safety is important sometimes. You should definitely be careful around machines and wear safety glasses sometimes, but for some reason the people who do most of the work at companies often end up being abused by shitty companies who want to lobby the government for tax breaks, but never on behalf of their workers.
It’s quite sad how people spend decades wearing uncomfortable clothing working long hours, and have to subject themselves to humiliation by wearing stupid and ugly clothes simply to get a bit of sympathy from our extremely materially obsessed society and our toxic capitalist system.
My most used tool is a cordless impact driver. With the right bits it is so useful. Cuts many repair times down to a percentage of their non impact driver repair time. I have bits for any screws and also bits to adapt sockets.
The one I picked up is less than $50 at Walmart with the bits. Super useful tool to have around. I throw it in my backseat and it’s always there when I need it.

I keep up with my cousins and visit far away family occasionally. Mainly just to help keep the family together.
I did some numbers on this one time and to get a 3000 lb vehicle airborne in VTOL requires about 1000-1500 HP and 2000 HP to really be safe. 2000 HP is about the point where you get a 2:1 TWR and get more drone like behavior including fast stops and redundancy. It also takes a ton of fuel to power 2000 HP worth of engine(s), so realistically this 3000 lb 1400 KG car would need wings or something to get good fuel economy.
In order to power these beasts, especially within the weight requires turbine engines which are expensive. Somewhere around 100k on the lower end. Two 1200 HP jet turbines would be good but would probably cost around 150-200k in America anyways. 2000 HP is also going to use close to a gallon per minute of fuel. So take offs and landings outside of runways would be a bit costly.
You would also need autopilot features in controlled airspace or people would be crashing into buildings and stuff within cities.
It’s a cool idea but there are many practical reasons why flying cars won’t really work rn. The technology exists but it’s expensive and hard to maintain and dangerous and also can be very loud.
I think the most interesting thing about drug markets is how stable they are compared to real life markets. Even as the currency deflates drugs maintain their value over the years.
Absolutely.
I have been poisoning all data I generate for decades since I was a kid. I knew even back in like 2000 that the government is probably spying on people and that they would one day use AI or bots to try to influence people or read their minds. I always use different info on every site. It’s not just surveillance by the pedo state but also protecting your identity and stuff.
They don’t care about money. Only poor people care about money. Once you get a certain level of wealth it snowballs forever (fiat currency).
If Ford cared about money or GM or whatever. They would make a decent car, and try to build their brand. Yet there hasn’t been a single positive development in cars in at least 20 years. Maybe more airbags but only because it’s legally required. Everything else has been pure degeneration. Even the slightly better fuel economy has come at the much greater cost of reliability as new vehicles will rarely even last half as long as older cars because of stuff like the start stop technology filling the oil with water and the terrible paper thin designs needed to meet fuel economy requirements.
The idea that you think these people care about money is laughable. Money can’t even buy anything anymore. Not to mention that the gold standard was removed nearly a century ago. An average home is like 450k and the taxes on it are honestly worse. You will never own a single piece of property in the world. The rich have so much power that they can get 2% interest loans while you can only get maybe 5-6% if you are lucky. So you see even the money is set up for power. To make sure you and everyone else never has any or can ever own anything, but you must work daylight to dark to survive, while their accounts increase while they sleep, having never produced a single valuable thing in their life.
You are just applying your poor person mentality to a world where that doesn’t exist. You want money because to you, money is a way to escape a life of servitude to corporations, but even that is an illusion.
Why do you think Elon musk spent billions to acquire Twitter? Why buy a company that has nothing of actual value outside of some IP and data, when the U.S economy has not grown in 50 years? Money? Fuck no. Power, influence, protecting his billionaire pedo friends from citizen justice. These sorts of things.
Money itself is about power. Every aspect of it from the ground up is designed to facilitate the mass stealing of value from the working class, and putting it into the hands of a small class of managers. Money is a treadmill to keep you desperate and silent. You think America has private healthcare because of money? Fuck no, it’s because it’s just another screw to turn to manipulate you. Another thing you will be without if you are out of work for a month or two from an injury. We have been in a post scarcity world for nearly 100 years. 90% of the people on the planet wouldn’t have to work rn and we could have an even better standard of living, but that won’t happen because they are afraid of what people will do when they aren’t desperate, trying to make it from one week to the next as their wages drop year after year, and also because people in countries without women’s autonomy and rights will have billions of little parasitic humans that they have no way to take care of. At this point humans are mostly becoming a liability. The more you have, the more they destroy the environment and compete for the same limited amount of resources allocated to the poor and working classes. Most jobs today simply exist so that they have leverage on you, nothing more. You know what leverage is about? Power! You guessed it.
Wake up sheep.
