I think the FAA also states that the drone must be within visible range at all times.

What do you gain in using this that you could not already do (better) on .net?

There's been countless A B X tests that showed conclusively that the vast majority of people cannot tell the difference between samples with and without the 22kHz+ frequencies.

Unless you've done a double blind test I don't believe you.

by lwat 15y ago
With good reason!

Probably because you couldn't come up with the actual study you mention.

Incognito mode does that fairly successfully. Try the Panopticlick link in incognito, you'll see what I mean.

I bet the DHS is working on this right now - that is if they do not already have such a system.

Oral vitamin D is not taken up by the body all that well. If you do have a D deficiency and you're taking oral supplements, be sure to get your levels checked after 6 months. You may need to up your dose or get some direct sunlight.
