For me it’s driving while under the influence. If you couldn’t tell, I like me some ganja. However I have long since held the belief that it is utterly insane to drive while under the influence of most substances, with maybe nicotine and caffeine being the exception. All too often I see other stoners smoking and driving, which I simply can’t fathom. I’ve only operated a vehicle once under the influence and it was just to move a U-Haul around the block to a different parking spot, which was such a scary experience while high that I refuse to even consider getting behind the wheel again while high.

    Quadcopters: pretending it’s easy. It’s not fucking easy! You’re going to break your quadcopter five dozen or more times before you can fly without crashing if you don’t learn on a simulator first.

    ha, the hobby is basically just break-fixing your quad with a bit of flying time in between. And spending hours trying to recover it because aren’t sure exactly where you crashed.

      I started in the LiftOff simulator and then moved to a TinyHawk Freestyle before moving to a 5", and I’ve had pretty good luck. But, I put in a ton of practice time to get to where I am, and I still crash occasionally.
