New Draganflyer Predator Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

John Jorsett writes "I've long lusted for the Draganflyer indoor-outdoor radio-controlled helicopter, but now I've got a new object of desire. Since seeing it flown on The History Channel's 'Tactical to Practical' show last September, I've been waiting for the Draganflyer Predator, modeled on the military aircraft of the same name. Electrically powered, the $750 Draganflyer Predator can be equipped with video cameras and a GPS receiver to carry out radio-controlled or pre-programmed self-guided surveillance missions of up to 20 miles range, the company claims. Time to buy my own UAV and find out what's really going on over there in Area 51."

    Sometimes

    Sometimes,
    I'm awake in the early morning
    And Starmanta, I wonder if you are here
    And wonder if your asshole hurts
    From anal rape
    By niggers who are queer

    Starmanta, I see you yet again
    And baby, did it have to be this way?
    Saying brave words of censorship
    Yet still spanked by the GNAA

    Now you've left me, dear Starmanta
    And I cry but no-one, but no-one can hear
    And as I pray these words, darling 'Manta
    I pray for your violated rear

    I guess it's all part of living
    And I guess we all play the game
    And my wish for you, dear Starmanta
    Is you learn not to be so lame

    P3aC3!!! GNAA4L!!!!

    Is it any wonder people think Linux users are a bunch of flaming homosexuals when its fronted by obviously gay losers like these?! BSD has a mascot who leaves us in no doubt that this is the OS for real men! If Linux had more hot chicks and gorgeous babes then maybe it would be able to compete with BSD! Hell this girl should be a model!

    Linux is a joke as long as it continues to lack sexy girls like her! I mean just look at this girl! Doesn't she excite you? I know this little hottie puts me in need of a cold shower! This guy looks like he is about to cream his pants standing next to such a fox. As you can see, no man can resist this sexy little minx. I mean are you telling me you wouldn't like to get your hands on this ass?! Wouldn't this just make your Christmas?! Yes doctor, this uber babe definitely gets my pulse racing! Oh how I envy the lucky girl in this shot! Linux has nothing that can possibly compete. Come on, you must admit she is better than an overweight penguin or a gay looking goat! Wouldn't this be more liklely to influence your choice of OS?

    With sexy chicks like the lovely Ceren you could have people queuing up to buy open source products. Could you really refuse to buy a copy of BSD if she told you to? Don't you wish you could get one of these? Personally I know I would give my right arm to get this close to such a divine beauty!

    Don't be a fag! Join the campaign for more cute open source babes today!

    Nice to see people have time to waste while world economies have gone to shit, the environment is on the verge of collapse and people around the world are dying just to survive.

    Amen, brutha. Fly that copta and feel -good about it. You've earned it. It's all about -you-! Nothing else matters.

    >I have fantasized about loading up a model with flyers and then leafletting north korea or some other freedom-of-information deprived hole.

    I don't think you'd make very many friends with this idea. And I'm not just talking about North Korea.

    See, politics is an art form. It is actually very difficult, a lot like walking on a rope.
    No, I'm not talking about the simplistic crap spewed by major public figures. I'm talking about the quiet people in the background, who have dedicated their whole lives to this. They would not want you to interfere, especially with something so crude. You might actually damage things.

    Don't believe me? Read Bismarck "Gedanken und Erinnerungen". AFAIK german only, sorry. And usually out of print because, really, who cares about politics anymore? It's all so very easy: we're the good guys, and they're not...sigh. Like Fernau said: we need people who can play chess, not tic-tac-toe.
