its the time for it, all the ez mode hw is open and cheap to the general public now, when I tried to build robots in the 90s it was 1000s of bucks. 3d printers, cheap ics, a zillion new tiny low power mcus for iot exist, I got a quadroped walker I made that funs on 12oz of Lipos and charges with a solar panel on its back. Wifi is silly, I bought some LoRa modules, 15km in rural areas at 433MHz and it has a WAN protocol but I am just doing node to node right now. Its ripe for it. plus a fun way to walk around out in the locked up world. If nothing else, in fanshitting times, I could use it to steal keys, cans of food, or just recon that next hill. Fuck If I'm gonna be a normie if it all goes down, when all is great, its starbucks and buttonups, but when the world stops on a dime..... different rules also its a great way to make people who bought their drones and can only fly for 12 minutes, eat a big bag of dicks when you say "oh yea, I built that one"
