I would be surprised if Walmart accepted open box drone returns at all. My local electronics store does not. It makes sense too. I've bought two drones and both died quickly due to collisions. Maybe there are drones that are stable and

That's non-sequitur. I can't even imagine who you think suls would be shilling for. Are you accusing suls of shilling and asking me to report that for you? I've merely asked for elaboration and provided a recent article that

I found it odd. I'm recognizing the importance of the issue to suls, as it drew this person to respond when the account goes for weeks without commenting on submissions. Do you find this sort of acknowledgement of a commenter's be

JavaFX doesn't even do ARM linux anymore. Qt is basically the only option on such hardware now. It seems odd they don't recommend Qt bindings for Java applications here or on their wiki though. https://wiki.qt.io/L

The irony here is art187 has illustrated CoCs not working while espousing their virtues. HN guidelines is a CoC, even though it isn't named that. It has all the hallmarks of a typical CoC. Here, art187 has made a generic comment and, a
