I don't think you could fit video on that microcontroller, even with the best compression. But some low memory and compute video compression for embedded devices would be nice.

Link? I want to see the entire pile of steaming bullshit.

I don't know if writing a custom image compresson program and streaming graphics rendering code with worth saving a few bucks on parts.

I used it in a few microcontroller projects, let me get away with the cheaper 8 bit microcontroller with 64K of flash. The streaming decoding is real nice, because it can be read from flash and sent of to a display, without ever keeping it in ram. (4K!)

I have personaly known a lot of people who have seemed super happy at first, but were putting up a facade over some real big mental health problems. Just because someone is able to socialize doen't mean they are living a good life, and you can do lots of fulfilling things without in person interaction.

Don't worry about being normal, just do fun and fulfilling things.

I don't think the roof would be good at reflecting signals back at the device, it scatters them all throughout the building, rasing the noise floor. In a way, phone hotspots can cause less interference then a proper access point because they use a lower transmit power, and allow the other devices to reduce power.

I would think the metal parts of roof might be reflecting signals all around the building, which would cause interference between devices. (there is a limited number of WiFi channels), it might work better with a plastic roof, or one with RF absorbers.

Isn't flying the whole point though?

Most malware is writen for Windows, but Linux malware exists, and has been found in the wild. The most common infection method, like with windows is running a trojan, theoretically things like browser exploits could also be used, but these are unlikely unless you are a high profile target like a head of state or CEO.

I would personaly be much more worried about someone evesdropping through my microphone. All they would get from my camera is my face and some glances of the room my computer is in, but my microphone would reveal all sorts of private conversations.

Why would you want to drive on the ground? It's a helicopter.

They are called "helicopters" and have existed for a while.
