    This is the world's first electric drone that you can actually ride in — and it also flies itself[^]

      Cool, but for me, I'll wait until at least version 5.

        yeah, by then the price might come down to $150,000 instead of several hundred thousand dollars.

                      Indeed. The blades of a model helicopter already can kill and this has unfortunately also happened a few times.

                      The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
                      This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

                              Actually it's about a 30 minute ride and two hour charging. WooHoo!

                                      You want to get into a device which you haven't seen actually work yet, made by an unregulated company with no history in flying more than a few grams, in a country known for manufacturing cheap knockoffs that catch fire...and then go up in the air in it? Good luck. When you next drive to work, count the number of disabled cars on the roadside. Now imagine each of these cars dropping 500 meters onto a random bit of city between your house and your work. If you're feeling extremely charitable, imagine each 1500kg vehicle gently parachuting onto your house roof or your kid's playground or the high-voltage transmission cables that go to your city.

                                        Man, you're such a downer, such a Negative Nellie.

                                        Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

                                          You want to get into a device which you haven't seen actually work yet, made by an unregulated company with no history in flying more than a few grams, in a country known for manufacturing cheap knockoffs that catch fire...and then go up in the air in it? Good luck. When you next drive to work, count the number of disabled cars on the roadside. Now imagine each of these cars dropping 500 meters onto a random bit of city between your house and your work. If you're feeling extremely charitable, imagine each 1500kg vehicle gently parachuting onto your house roof or your kid's playground or the high-voltage transmission cables that go to your city.

                                          Not only that, but think about the carnage when a hacker successfully takes control of one of these things and heads for a crowded sidewalk... No thanks, think I'll stick to 4 wheels on the ground...
