A new drone shaped like a bird. Chinese developers have shown a new drone made in the shape of a bird.
Such an invention can turn the drone industry upside down.
The drone is able to fly with the help of wing flapping like a real bird and looks the same.
Didn’t MIT or another Institute created one a few years ago?
Hard to believe that it would have taken till this day for someone to do this, given that birds are the obvious example of flight.
I like how the article starts with China making bird drones and ends with American gun drones. The most American drone.
And the chainsaw drone, the bomb drone, the control drone…
“Birds aren’t real” conspiracy theory coming true.
Maybe that was the misunderstanding. Is was never a conspiracy. It was a prophecy.
If it flies it spies.
There have been non-drone flapping bird toys for decades(?) Maybe longer? At least since 1969.
r/BirdsArentReal must be going nuts over this.
I bet there going “Guys, real bird is spotted in china, where we wrong?”
But i dislike Reddit to much to go check
Birds? You mean drones? Birds aren’t real.
Which is why they are slowly admitting they were drones with stuff like this. “Oh look, we made a drone in the shape of a bird!”. Even though it was a drone all along /s
Is there like a law of the Internet that says even the dumbest conspiracy theories will eventually come true? If so I want to know the name given how it keeps happening.
Soon enough the Earth could turn out flat…
Mind control will eventually happen.
I don’t mean like propaganda, that always existed, I mean like actually controlling someone.
You don’t need to feae betrayal if they have a specific program in the brain that will only obey your commands
Any one who tries to make accusations of a person being mind controlled or accusing the government of attemping to mind controlled them will be declared “mentally ill” then detained and be forcibly “treated”, whete in fact, they were being locked up in some lab the mind control technology is used on their brain.
Free-will* would be over. Humanity would be over.
Free-will as in “the brain can make decisions”, not as in “free will vs determinism”.
It’s called Neuralink.
I will literally starve to death living in the wilderness before someone puts a Neuralink in me. If you forced me to choose, I would choose starvation.
you should tell these guys to add it to their list https://archive.org/stream/RulesOfTheInternet/RulesOfTheInternet..txt
RIP all birds
Birds aren’t real
aren’t there already a pigeon, hawk, bat, and bug wing drone?
These are more realistic. I hear they can form a flock and shit all over you. Scary stuff!
yes
If this were announced in the US, given the number of civillian owned guns in America, birds in the US will soon be extinct.
So many ballistic trajectories, so much falling lead.
So… just another Fourth of July celebration?
But instead, it’s 365/366 day of the year, every year?
This is great news! For the firearms industry, that is. 👀
I KNEW BIRDS WERENT REAL
Oh well, gonna go hunting.
Either I’m right and I shot a spy drone, or PETA is gonna hunt me down.
This seems like it would be ideal for spying on your own citizens. Expect a US version soon - if there isn’t one already, that is.
I don’t think they need to camouflage their cameras so elaborately in the US. US citizens are already painfully oblivious/acclimatized to being surveilled by the government/corporations.
In contrast to Chinese citizens who are famously free to travel about anonymously and voice any opinion they like about their government.
Are you joking? The UK is the home of cctv
You think that’s exclusive to the UK? I live in rural Asia and police patrol the countryside with drones.
True, but the government loves expensive toys.
Pfft. Everyone knows they already make these. Where do you think “birds” come from, anyway? Nature? smh.
This is not new at all. Probably 5+ years old
Ornithopters have been around for over 100 years. It’s not really breaking new ground.
I had a toy like this over 40 years ago. Of course I just wound it up and let it go but it flew well.
