    The part of me that has read a lot of sci-fi thinks this is super cool from a technological viewpoint.

    The other part of me, which also reads sci-fi thinks thinks it’s a scary sign of things to come from an ethical perspective.

    All sides agree fuck Russia.

      As someone from Russia - this was super cool 10 years ago, now this is just the obvious making its way to battlefields, and Middle-Eastern ones long before Ukraine.

      Also it’s good to be far enough from the events to talk about “scary things” only in the ethical context, but I’m going to disappoint you - warfare revolutions usually affect warfare geography too. You may see killer drones near you home in 20 years or so.
