Amazon Drones

[voodazz]

Why do people think these drones will even be flying low enough to GET shot down

Do you expect them to air drop their packages from 600 feet up?? :wtf: Think, sucka.

[NonSexualRice]

Every post I see talking about these drones I see replies from people saying they are going to get shot down constantly.

Are people really going to be carrying firearms everywhere they go looking for these things up in the sky, hoping to hit one and not destroying whats inside just for a book or a pair of headphones? Those drones can’t carry anything too heavy so whatever is in those things won’t be very valuable or worth the risk of the authorities catching your ass firing into the sky. It just seems stupid to really think such a thing would be happening constantly in reality.

in this post if it’s light, it’s not expensive.

i swear to god this board sometimes

Amazon bringing drones to people’s houses
Google bringing internet to every corner of the planet
No one bringing food to the needy

Life is great or shitty depending on who you are

The logistics behind this seem mind blowing at this point, not to mention the cost alone. At this point I would say this program lacks substance and Amazon seems to have a lot of money to play with.

EDIT:

Fun fact, the last time Amazon went down for about 30 minutes it lost around $66,000 every minute!

How about this instead, how about we finish making renewable energy resources our priority and phase out fossil fuel transportation in it’s entirety before we start working on more was to satiate our rampant consumerism.

That doesn’t have anything to do with Amazon.

And besides that, alternative energy (outside of nuclear and other forms that scare the population due to weaponization potential) will always be more expensive and pathetic in yield. At best, we’ll keep finding things that suck compared to fuel combustion. Whatever element we need to surpass fossil fuel, it’s not on Earth, or has yet to be discovered…and isn’t renewable.

How can you even make such a claim? Did you just seriously say ALWAYS? You are not a scientist but damn you are pessimistic ass mothasucka.

the drones only carry items that are five pounds in weight, which amounts to 90% of all the items delivered by Amazon. The problem is i know plenty of people who’ll spend the entire day trying to shoot down those drones.

Call of Duty?

yeah I’m curious on what they will be landing on/with

[Manx]

Hack em and prosper. :tup:

I can see deliverymen losing jobs. If this spreads to other services (Pizza delivery) that’s a lot more unemployment.

I think it’s interesting, but it doesn’t mean I have to like it.

And God help them if they fly any of them near Florida.

This is just one of the steps to a cyberpunk topia. Its going to be really shitty with unemployment for everybody for a while but then robots are going to be doing all of the menial shit that nobody wants to do and everybody is either really happy in the utopia or just completely fucked in the dystopia.

I see food becoming a problem in first world countries before this shit gets fixed.

Who gives a shit about drones. I want to be able to have a full prosthetic Cyborg body by the twenties. That way I can watch ghost in the shell again and go “remember when that was science fiction?”

[AlanEdrick]

you know you cant just shoot randomly at shit with a gun, and not expect people to call the cops. Though when they land, what is to stop people from stealing them and say someone else stole it?

[CanadianDstryr]

Presumably cameras and a tracking device.

[BTierBison]

I’m going to shoot those shits out of the sky with energy beams.
