Overview of AeroScope, a New DJI System to Track and Identify Drones

[scjerry]

I have to say that this thread has gone a bit bonkers. Think about what DJI has done. This wonderful entrepreneurial enterprise has capitalized on a the body of knowledge accrued by RC hobbyists and Silicon Valley technology and other sources from all over the world for the past, what, 3 decades and brought us enjoyment and created something that expands the boundaries of our experience. Please don't denigrate their ethnic or political origins. That smacks of a bias that ignores a body of contributors from all countries to our quality of life. The Chinese culture probably produced explorers that beat Columbus and even Eric the Red in the discovery of America using their own compass. Marco Polo even brought back the origins of spaghetti from his his 17 year stay there. See BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Oldest noodles unearthed in China . So where would you guys be without spaghetti? Probably a lot thinner!

Oh, I'm sorry, but given your posts to this thread, I thought you were a little biased. Am I wrong?

Everybody is biased, you just haven’t identified the bias..

 

[scjerry]

I don't think I have to.

I don't think I have to.

I don't think I have to.

Then I have no bias.

Every Chinese company is NOW owned by the Chinese Govt. PERIOD. That is the condition of Communism. CIA could not list them as a communist nation if they did not meet full definition of COMMUNISM. Socialism is what your describing, where nation has minders in every factory and a significant say in operations, but not ownership...communism is the most oppressive...full say, full ownership, total authoritarianism of every single person, thoughts and writings...total lack of freedom.

One of the greatest challenges most people face is knowing enough to think your right but not enough to realise you are wrong (I can’t remember where I heard that stated but it has stuck with me). It certainly applies here.

Go and look at the publicly listed information for the top five hundred companies ranked by revenue. You will find a lot are based in China and a good proportion are privately controlled. I can’t understand why you might be persevering here but the position you are taking is ridiculous. There is no evidence to support your view.

I think the quote you are looking for comes from John Cleese of Monty Python fame who once said...
“The problem with people like this is that they are so stupid that they have no idea how stupid they are. You see, if you’re very, very stupid, how can you possibly realize that you’re very, very stupid, you’d have to be relatively intelligent to realize how stupid you are.”

Here, communism 101...
Economic Systems: Capitalism, Communism, and Socialism

If you read you will see the distinction between the economic systems of Capitalism, Socialism and Communism, are a sliding scale of private ownership, to joint ownership, to total Government ownership...it IS the deciding factor which system is being utilized.

There is a difference between the textbook example of an economic system and how it's implemented by a state.

You really should go back and read the Factbook article that posted the link to. It describes how China has moved from classic communism to a level of free enterprise with private ownership and government controlled banks.

No- definitely not Monty Python, in my case. My best guess is it was a physics professor.

While it's taken out of context, the quote more or less comes from John Cleese. Since the kids today say "If there's no video, it didn't happen"...

Understood- I wasn’t quoting Monty Python however. John Cleese is a genius in his own right, no question.

I provided the CIA ruling and analysis, not opinion...YOU on the other hand provided nothing....except opinion. Funny as hell

What is funny is that seemingly haven’t got past looking at the pictures on the link you posted.
If your read what is revealed under the Introduction and economy tabs you will find the author is in agreement what all are relying on here to evidence the futile and ill informed ridiculousness of your inept proposition.

Fair enough- but to be clear my intent has not been to insult you. I have simply, seemingly as others have, chosen to address your arguments and (in my case) comments you have put to me directly.

Well since you are now on report, I expect you to stay back after class and write on the blackboard 100 times 'I shall not post any content that is both sound and informed in response to irrational and mildly delusional mindsets'.
This post has wondered that far off course that I hit RTH and it kept going.
My first 'flyaway' I guess.
