China. Xuzhou city.
A drone appears and shouting in the sky:
''We're watching you the whole time. Behave yourself! Or you'll bear the legal liability..''
Police in China now has tens of thousands drones flying in the sky to spy on Chinese people day and night.
THE PLAIN TRUTH==
we drifted through it, arguing.
every day a new war crime, every day a flower bloom.
we sat down together and wrote it in one room,
and then sat down in a different room, recording.
NO TITLE= what gestures make sense while tiny bodies fall? what context? what broken melody?
and then a tally and a date to mark a point on the line, the negative process, the growing pile.
the sun setting above beds of ash
while we sat together, arguing.
the old world order barely pretended to care.
this new century will be crueler still.
war is coming.
don’t give up.
pick a side.
hang on.
love.

Yes, you probably really don’t NEED this, but some people may well think they do.
The video in the linked article below, from a lightning talk at a conference, gives a pretty good overview of how it works, and some of the thought process involved in getting it to where it is now. And while Caleb’s PoopCopter is clearly still a prototype, it’s easy to get the gist. Combining data from the previous poop-adjacent efforts, Caleb has built a quadcopter that can (or will, someday) be guided to the approximate location of the offending package, home in on it using a downward-looking camera, and autonomously whisk it away.

Iran’s New 4000km Range ‘Kamikaze’ Drone is a Strategic Game Changer: Shahed 136B Puts Key Bases Across Europe in Range

#Iran #weapons #Shahed #drone
What does it take for the nice civilized people in Europe and US to say no to this daily show of disregard to laws of war, humanity and decency?
What kind of sick "soldier" drops a bombeon an injured, unarmed civilian?
And how the hell does world leaders stand by and keep supporting this outrageous documented war crime?

Ukrainian forces drop munition into crowd at #Donetsk market, several injured — eyewitness 2,august
It is reported that the Ukrainian armed forces carry out shelling and #drone attacks every day
DONETSK, August 2. /TASS/. The Ukrainian armed forces used a drone to attack a market in the west of Donetsk, injuring six people, an eyewitness told reporters.
"Almost no one heard it (the drone - TASS). It (the munition) was dropped: six people were injured, two of them seriously. No one even noticed when it went up. Drones fly a lot. To be honest, we didn't see what kind of drone it was, but it was a grenade. They threw a grenade because when these kamikaze drones come, the explosions are much stronger. And there was a crowd here, they just threw it into the crowd," she said, adding that people in the market had leg and head injuries.
She also said that the #Satanic Ukrainian armed forces carry out shelling and drone attacks every day.
According to the DPR mission to the Joint Control and Coordination Center on issues related to Ukraine's war crimes (JCCC), the enemy dropped an explosive object from a drone in the area at 8:50 a.m. Moscow time [5:50 a.m. GMT].
The Chinese military is once again pushing the boundaries of technological innovation by incorporating bird-shaped reconnaissance drones. Recent images circulated on the Internet show these drones in use by one of the units of the Marine Corps of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
These drones, indistinguishable from living birds at a distance, flap their wings and fly in a natural manner. Technical details and specific characteristics of these drones remain confidential, but their deployment within the PLA forces has been confirmed.
China is not new to the field of ornithopters. As early as 2018, a government program named “Pigeon” was launched, aimed at developing mimetic drones for urban operations. These drones, with their characteristics still undisclosed, were designed to blend into the urban environment without arousing suspicion.
In 2022, Chinese engineers unveiled an impressive mechanical flying bird weighing 1,600 grams and featuring a wingspan of two meters. Powered by a lithium battery, this drone could remain airborne for an hour and a half, demonstrating China’s advancements in the field of biomimetic drones.
Although many countries are also working on bird-like drones, most are limited to fixed-wing models propelled by propellers. For instance, the Dutch surveillance drone Evolution Eagle, disguised as a large eagle, can only deceive the human eye from a great distance. In contrast, the Chinese flapping-wing drones offer a much more effective and realistic camouflage.
This technological advancement reflects the Chinese military’s desire to remain at the forefront of military innovation by developing equipment capable of perfectly blending into their environment for discreet and effective reconnaissance missions.
The adoption of these ornithopter drones by the PLA could mark a turning point in surveillance and military intelligence strategies, offering a significant tactical advantage due to their ability to operate without raising suspicion. It remains to be seen how this technology will be exploited in the coming years and what impact it will have on military doctrines worldwide.

The drone is able to #imitate the #flight of a bird, even the movement of its #wings for maximum authenticity.
