    You're 100% on the money. People spend entirely too much time online and live in this constant feedback loop which they think is reality when its not. Pretty much anything on Reddit is just saturated with a specific mindset. So much so that people defend piracy. Telling someone they shouldn't pirate a videogame and they're not entitled to play every game that comes out if they cannot afford them is actually a controversial opinion and will get you downvoted--heavily.

    Yup I ran into the same thing. I've already fixed it in my best and final version.

    Nice! I was thinking as I was watching this, it might be interesting to take footage while following the trajectory of the ball doing a hole-in-one.

    I've tried that. I would looooove to pull that off, but it is incredibly hard to do that. Your average tee shot is moving well beyond 100+ MPH off the club. Most drones unless they are custom or high end are going nowhere near 100MPH at top speed.

    I use Citrix Workspace for bidding software and it is absolutely trash. We come in and cannot get into Citrix workspace for half a day. We screw around a lot on those days too.

    It is a DJI T30 drone. They've been around a while. They are more or less full automated. You program the flight, but it will take off fly and return to you so you can swap batteries and fill the tanks all on its own.

    I had that around February of 2022. Honestly what I did was find a new hobby. I bought a drone, got my part 107 certificate, did a few paid jobs for a side hustle. Now I am really short on time because I am doing a lot of side hustle stuff with this so I can hardly play videogames at all so when I have the chance to actually sit down I don't spend any time deciding which game. I generally know what I am craving so I hope in and just enjoy the time I have.

    Both my brother and myself experienced the exact same thing. We both follow almost exclusively liberal politicians and video game studios/personalities. Musk took over and my feed which is supposed to be my followers started showing 80% people I do not follow at all and of all the new accounts they were suggesting/showing me nearly all of them were right leaning political operatives.

    Absolutely no one will ever convince me that Musk didn't intentionally amplify voices on the right even when people had a documented history and followers list that indicated they were not interested.
