Old school YouTube here. Short niche content, no clickbait or algorithm pushing. Nice birds, love it. I feel like you haven’t been able to browse and just watch simple original content like this since 2015.
My only complaint is it’s three pages down on videos.
+1 for frigate. I have some old V2 wyze cameras with openmiko for rtsp functionality.
Fucking gold!
Solvespace
Watch a few of these to get started, skip ahead as needed. It’s got some limitations but leagues ahead of freecad in terms of UI and workflow.

The existence of foss projects should never exclude the creation of alternatives if someone wants to try.
Try solvespace. Freecad UI is a mess. Hopefully they fix it one day.
Wow. Thank fuck I love somewhere where unions are an accepted and appreciated concept.
I think this is rather location dependent. Here in Aus a lot of people I know use them. Just some more anecdotal evidence.
The pure joy of putting a single joule of optical power into a sub nanosecond pulse.
For those not familiar with lasers, that’s a GW of instantaneous power that you can focus down to a micron sized spot.

All that said, the successful laser weapons right now seem to all be anti drone/aircraft and they are typically using tracked CW (not pulsed) lasers with heating over time to avoid atmospheric lensing. Lots of challenges to overcome in getting pulsed energy a long way through air.
+1 to this. A steel frame 90s mountain bike with 26" wheels, some maintenance know how and about $100 in parts will get you thousands of km of riding with much less trouble compared to a fancy aluminium/carbon frame with hydraulic breaks and a drivetrain that locks the moment something goes slightly out of tolerance.
Only caveat is needing to buy some tools, but good tools will last.
