  • This is perfect thank you!

    Since I had to do some troubleshooting to get it working, I’ll list what I had to do here:

    I have Mint 22.1 and Heroic Launcher installed as a flatpak. Because of this, I could not install Mangohud from apt as Heroic could not find it in $PATH. Instead I had to install the Mangohud flatpak flatpak install Mangohud. I had to specifically choose the v23.08 branch when running that command, as the v24.08 branch did not work with heroic. After that, I went to the game configuration in Heroic and enabled Mangohud and all was good. :)

    Never had anything in my apartments maintained by the landlord, always had to maintain everything myself at my own expense.

    When is the last time you bought a furnace, a water heater, or a new roof for a property you rent? Ever?

    It isn’t that the owner isn’t maintaining it, it is that they aren’t maintaining it do the standard you would prefer. And that absolutely is an issue. And it is one of the primary benefits of no longer paying a landlord and instead buying a property and maintaining it to your own standards. You will almost certainly end up with a maintenance standard you like as you will be the one dictating and implementing it.

    Absolutely, a problem that is improved by increasing housing supply (thus lowering costs). We need more government investment in building homes and to remove barriers that prevent or slow homes from being built. Simply outlawing rentals, as OP suggests, would do the opposite, it would take out a huge chunk of people who are building homes, drastically lowering supply and exploding housing prices.

    Biggest plusses people argue in favor is not having to maintain the property yourself and being able to move much more easily. If you are one of the people who would prefer to buy, I highly recommend you do so. Maintaining your own stuff is quite nice, as it lets you keep it up to the quality you desire.

    You’re charging someone for you doing nothing

    Go talk to someone who manages a rental, ask them specifically what they do. What do they do when the tenant leaves? What do they do when the tenant doesn’t pay? What do they do when things break? What do they do when there is a squatter? What do they do when there is a bogus complaint to the local government? What do they do when a unit sits empty for an extended period?

    The answer to all those questions is most certainly not ‘nothing’.










  • a self-guidance mechanism that can be turned on at the final approach to when signal can fail due to proximity to the ground

    I believe this is exactly what we are seeing.

    There is a crosshair that stays centered in frame at the start of each clip. Then a bounding box and smaller crosshairs appear around the target. This bounding box stays on the target, even as the frame moves around. This appears to be when the lock on occurs, which is almost certainly manually triggered as it occurred all three times when the target was in the crosshairs.

    At this point, the self-guided part is enabled and the drone does the rest of the approach to the target by itself.

    Seeing as one of the disadvantages of drones is that they’re relatively slow, this could massively multiply the amount of damage a single pilot can do!

    Absolutely! All those things your mention are well within the capability of tech that is cheap enough to put on small, disposable drones.
