Many call for U.S. agencies to use advanced tech to identify mysterious drones

[superstarwhims]

you know jet , rudy and chris should be poly and their ship name should be spydrones wait shut up who said that

[ayy-junipei]

I dunno. The Lewis going back in time theory might be true. Lulu is just protective of her new dad and doesn’t want him to be transformed into an extremely gay robot.

I dunno chief after the spydrone scene and 3 episodes fucking about in Hawai'i its starting to look like if that were true then future!Lewis is one fucking NUMPTY

Leverage Redemption Log: The Panamanian Monkey Job

Look i know we're going to Panama because of last episodes ending tease/it being a 2 parter. But can we just agree that sometimes the writers just pull words out of a hat and call it a title? --- Seriously that Location Establishment Font is horrible. The point of an establishing shot is to show the place we're at and that is the opposite of what your font is doing. --- Harry named-for-a-volleyball is returning to his old place of work to be a suitable distraction to let Leverage Inc slip by to steal his old client-list or something. (i think that the team is still "inc"and the big alliance of other teams working with/beneath them is International? feel free to correct me)

obligatory "evil lawyer joke" and we're scarcely a minute in. Parker making Neigh-noises as she removes the horse painting. 10/10. (Lola also gets a 10/10, it would be cool)

Oh the tax-evasion supervault has a brochure, how quaint. ominous mini-spydrone. (It's either introducing Hardisons understudy cause actor is busy, or actually spying? Im betting on its a fake-out) --- Ok the Panama City Courthouse is a phrase with words long enough that it forces the letters to get vertically smaller and make space between the words so we can actually us see between the letters. Which is a mercy, but unless we're about to spend half a season in LLanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch I do expect this font-styling to be a persistent nuisance. (apologies to the Welsh if there's a typo in there.) --- "blackouts, memory loss, deja vu" saw that punchline coming but its a classic.

just walk into the money laundering operation and start burning things. Simple and effective. Sophie seems to think she's getting too old for this, (think she might switch from frontline grifter to a more Nate-like organiser, carry on her husbands legacy sort of thing)

Elliot hears the drone.

Hardisons sister (read replacement) has a really dead stare...

"I teach every kid i meet how to do crime" That you do,

"one of us gets cover blown, they just kill us. But Harry, he reads like a fed. They'd torture him first. Gives us time to save him." You're not wrong Elliot, but you shouldnt say it. --- "I did not go through the trouble of making the only place in the world where its legal to store illegal property for you to cut corners". Time for a security exposition dump Basement has only 1 way in (elevator, or so he claims Parker is a Vent Enthuisiast) On site and off-site camera monitoring facilities (other in the Philipines) (could be a simple footage loop?) No drilling (seismic sensors, easy to trip=Boy Who Cried Wolf protocol. IE: Sheherezade Job.)

7/10 on the Tickle Yourself gag. Reduced to 4/10by the "dribble a football" (you can dribble a football, Handeggs are a bit tougher though) EDM festival next-door is a go-go. The monkey is the name and logo of a fake animal protection group that is faking outrage about a non-existent DJ playing a non-existent birthday party so they can be shamed by Sophie into playing at a non-existent benefit concert for an existent monkey. --- Creepy goons want to interogate Partyplanner Hackergirl whose name i have already forgotten (im bad at names allright,)

We're not busted, he's just asking why there is a sudden EDM rave nextdoor to his legal "illegal-things" storage. (understandable, bad form of the rest of the team to leave the newbie alone)

Turns out that Warcrimes George is a fan of "legally-not-Deadmouse". (why were we in Tokyo? Oh right *mimes headshot* great show) I have never liked an antagonist who was not meant to be sympathetic to this degree before. Ok so Deadmouse better show up or he's gonna face-shoot her.

--- Opioidrefugee is meeting in the park, guard negotiates him up to 8 million

Huh, the vault operator actually has an apparently semi-decent arguement for his own morality. (giving the tyrants a way to exit the stage into retirement means they have the option of peacefull retirement, and if even 1% of tyrants takes it, thats thousands of civilians not dying in civil wars as they cling to power.) like he's not a good person certainly, but you can argue a moral grey-ness in his business-operations there.

--- Harry sees Maxwell as he leaves... Hardison drills the roof, Breanna mans the phone. Elliot is in the vents (cause the elevator is broken)

Invisible lasers (thank god they're invisible for once) cause a throuple-fight with Hardison and Elliot.

turn of the lock turns the lasers off, and now Maxwell is pointing a gun at Parker.

--- neck-slap unconcious, Maxwell is in the vault... which is laced with explosives we're about to blow up. (making it seem like he blew up a vault full of every dictator and crooks secret stashes. Might be the evilest frame-up this show's ever done) "three of them have armies, one of them has Nukes" Well he's certainly right, that does sound like a "run for the rest of your lives" situation.

Hardison bought the theatre. Tearfull goodbye is imminent. Hardison claims that at least a dozen crews consider Parker a mom.

Sophie is officially out of retirement.

December 29.

This Video shows how the SpyDrones function. How easy it is to kill civilians and bomb Houses.

It’s like a Video Game to the occupational Army.

This also makes very clear….

With this advanced war technology….

They didn’t need to carpet bomb Gaza.

But we knew that already didn’t we?

"Hello." He says, perched above as the little light below comes into awareness.

Yellow optics roll to stare at him, slowly furrowed.

"Your name is Froid." He continues. Newly settled can forget big things like that easily, even when he made sure their memories and skills persist. "You're a psychologist, well v-- erk!"

It's a flurry of stuttering movements. He dangles, just a bit, from where he's been pinned to the wall by his throat. His vocalizer crunches.

But the absolute litney of curses, swear words, and insults from the barely-larger mechanical do a good enough job of calling for help. Adaptus pries them apart and pins Froid to a table, getting very close with a chainsaw.

It does the job of keeping the spydrone still, even if he's still swearing at them. Rebirth is tougher on some than others, he supposes.

Poor thing.

Tim Fawcett is not any stranger to unmanned plane vehicle (UAV, or drone) era: his agency a plus mobile makes cell pc devices that manipulate robots and UAVs for customers just like u.s. army and Lockheed martin. but when he appears to the future, he sees a global in which it’s not simply the military and authorities piloting UAVs, but you and me.

“There are going to be non-public domestic spy camera , there’s going to be business drones,” he advised me on the smartphone. indeed, the faa estimates that there may be tens of thousands of unmanned aircrafts circling overhead by the cease of this decade. “each person’s going to have to get entry to a drone. and those are going to have correct intentions with them, and those are going to have terrible intentions with them.”

every body’s going to have got right of entry to to a drone. and those are going to have bad intentions with them. Faucett prefers to arm himself against those with “awful intentions,” and sees a business commencing. a few weeks in the past, his startup home drone countermeasures filed its first of what he stated would be 9 patents for a device in an effort to stumble on and disable drones before they have the threat to film their targets.

because the generation is so new, Faucett's conversations about it are shrouded in secrecy, inclusive of what it seems like, what the tech entails, or the way it actually works. he referred to a system that consists of software program and sensors a good way to be capable of identifying nearby UAVs based totally on their electromagnetic signature, alert the owner of the machine, and then–the coup de grâce–the gadget will come what may “neutralize the drone’s functionality to peer you with its digital camera.”

in keeping with a faucet, “we don’t intrude with the drones navigation in any way. we don’t jam anything. we don’t intercept whatever … this is non-combative. that’s absolutely crucial.” Faucett says that as a phrase has gotten out about his business enterprise on the net, humans have falsely described his services like some sort of armed forces weaponry. “we’ve taken fantastic pains to layout systems that aren’t going to get shut down or be outlawed or grow to be unlawful. … we’ve taken the fight elements out so [the formerly military technology] can’t be regarded as illegal.”

While out getting supplies at home depot for the store, got out of the car and was greeted with these pigeons (aka government drones ;) ) induction charging themselves on the power line, right outside the Starbucks HQ where the Amazon pick-up is. Maybe these drones are owned by Amazon? :D anyways wished I had the DSLR with me, would have gotten better photos. #seleuss #seleussoutabouts #pigeons #pigeonsonawire #powerlinepigeons #birdsonawire #pigeonphotography #seattlepigeons #amazondrones #governmentdrones #spydrone #governmentspydrones #surveillancedrone (at Starbucks Headquarters Corporate Office) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYswv-ircm9/?utm_medium=tumblr

Cackling to myself about Taion inadvertedly developing a Spidey Sense for danger because he was a scrawny kid with bad eyesight who grew up into a gangly ninjaboy with an unlimited number of little spydrones at his disposal, so now he has to maintain perfect awareness of his surroundings all the time or he’s gonna find himself jolting out of the way of perfectly benign non-threats like a cat leaping a foot in the air when a plastic bag crinkles in a bad way.

Big Digiformers Crossover Idea Post

Okay, so I went looking for Digimon/Transformers crossovers and I was kinda disappointed so I guess I’ll just have to go and make one myself!! (Also thanks to @decepticon-spydrone for listening through my ideas and helping me with the AU)

Okay, so the idea is half the characters from TF become Digidestined and the rest are their digimon. So we start off with a young set of kids who are brought into the Digital World by Optimon who needs their help to stop the evil forces of Megamon and the Digicons! (Dun dun Dun)

We have Jazz (with Prowlmon), Hot Rod (Driftmon), Bumblebee (Cliffjumpamon), Perceptor (Wheeljamon), Arcee (Springamon) and Tailgate (doesn’t have one initially but later picks up a virus type Cyclonumon). They also later meet a kid called Rung who doesn’t seem to have a digimon or a crest and no one can quite figure out why.

Hot Rod is naturally the one wearing a set of goggles so he tries to declare himself the leader (even though Jazz is way more level headed and practical).

Optimon needs the Digidestined because Digimon have lost the ability to digivolve by themselves. They have to bond with a human partner in order to digivolve. So the kids need to go on a quest to liberate the Digital World and also discover the secret of digivolution, finding their crests along the way.

The list of crests for everyone goes:

Hot Rod: Courage

Jazz: Friendship

Perceptor: Knowledge

Arcee: Sincerity

Bumblebee: Hope

Tailgate: Light

Rung: ???

Megamon’s forces have recently picked up two digidestined who are fighting by their side: Starscream and Soundwave. Starscream is partnered to Megamon himself, and is basically a Digimon Emperor type character, an extremely power hungry kid whoa has become one of the Digicons best generals. Starscream is also followed by two rookie-level twin Seekermon called Thundercracker and Skywarp. They bother always seem to follow him and talk to him, but Starscream finds the two of them to be annoying hangers on who are always following him. They basically act as cute anime mascot characters at the start. Starscream carries the crest of Darkness created by Shockwavemon. Soundwave has Ravamon and the crest of Reliability, and is also seems to have amassed a small army of other rookie-level digimon who will follow her no matter what.

Windblademon also appears as the digidestined's guide, she's an ultimate-level and priestess of the ancient digimon god Primusmon, and she also seems to know more about Starscream than she's letting on.

Despite all this rambling it’s actually the SkyStar stuff I’ve figured out in the most detail (and carries the biggest segment of the plot). So I’ll place all the super spoilery and lengthy details under the cut:

As the AU goes on we gradually start to learn about who Starscream was an why he joined the Digicons. It was originally he and Skyfire who were the first kids to visit the Digital World, with Starscream bonded to Skywarp and Skyfire to Thundercracker. The two went on adventures together, becoming best friends and finding their crests. Skyfire had the crest of Kindness and it turns out Starscream’s was originally the crest of Love.

Then one day during an adventure in the digital worlds polar region Skyfire was kidnapped by a mysterious set of robot digimon and Starscream was unable to save him.

From that point on Starscream became obsessed with finding Skyfire, continuously searching the Digital World for any trace of him. Until one day he stumbled upon Megamon’s army, and Megamon offered him his resources to help find Sky if he teamed up with them. Starscream agreed and became extremely valuable to Megamon’s forces.

However, with Sky gone Starscream had trouble making his crest work so Skywarp only reached the ultimate level once and after that Starscream had trouble still proving he could be useful to the Digicon forces.

So it was that Shockwavemon eventually suggested giving Starscream the dark spores in order to make him smarter and more capable. It worked, but at the cost of Star becoming more power driven. When that still doesn’t work Shockwavemon suggested Starscream bond with Megamon and he went through with it, later taking Shockwavemon’s manufactured crest since he could no longer make the crest of Love glow at all.

It later turns out that Shockwavemon is actually the one who originally kidnapped Sky in the first place. He wanted to learn why digimon could no longer digivolve by themselves and why humans were necessary for digivolution to happen. He used Skyfire’s crest to create his own ones, creating the crest of Despair to siphon off Sky’s feelings of loneliness after his capture. And then the crest of Darkness for Starscream.

All the while he got to observe things from the sidelines and continue on his experiments (Probably there is also a subplot where he makes a Digimon called Jetfiremon from Sky’s data which can armour digivolve to multiple forms).

It later turns out that the reason Digimon can no longer digivolve is because Primusmon saw that digimon were becoming violent and using digivolution as a tool for power, so he made it that only digimon who could learn empathy via a partnership and also bring out the most positive of traits of their partner (love, courage, friendship, hope etc) would be the ones to digivolve.

It later turns out Rung is Primusmon in a human avatar intended to observe how digimon were doing. However, through Shockwavemon’s experimentation's he becomes able to digivolve without a partner and turns against Megamon, usurping him just as Starscream became twisted enough to allow him to digivolve to Galvamon.

Shockwavemon then realises Rung has the same code as the source code for the Digital World itself. In the super final big battle Shockwavemon kills Rung and then implants his code into the worlds source code and is able to reshape the Digital World into his image.

The Digidestined launch their attack against Shockwavemon, rescuing Skyfire and reuniting him with Starscream, which finally helps him to overcome the dark spores and regain the crest of Love. There’s a super big battle where everyone digivolves to the Mega level (including Star and Sky’s reunion allowing Warp and TC to Digivolve to Cyclonumon and Scourgemon respectively). And even Galvamon and Optimon DNA digivolve together to all defeat Shockwavemon and then finally the world is restored together.

THE END

This evening happens to be day four of IZOC Week, and today’s theme is...

...A non-Irken, as the screenshot says!

Since it’s a little more plain, unfinished, and character reference-y than usual, today’s a double-feature, and the focuses for tonight’s post are the renegade snack-starved Vortian Guardsman Java, and a redesign of another one of my older neglected brainchildren, BLU.

Once a proud (and well fed) guard of some of Vort’s most luxuriously lazy furniture pieces, Javz’Dar was deposed from his comfortable, perfectly sculpted and luxurious seats after the unexpected and swift conquest of Vort by Invader Larb, prying the old wounds of Tallest Miyuki’s death wide open as it became quite clear that Irk never did trust them after the loss of such a beloved ruler.

For a short time after Javz was part of one of multiple resistance movements, but was captured and subsequently underwent a number of months in time-dilation torture wherein Larb starved his unruly captives.

Whether this was his plan, or whether he just forgot to feed his prisoners for an hour is unclear.

Eventually, Javz was liberated by unclear means, and has been glimpsed among the ranks of a mixed-race mercenary band led by Psi Mydra.

While he hasn’t been able to put meat back on his bones yet, he seems to have replaced his need to feed with caffeine, hence Mydra’s pet name of ‘Java’ for the hotheaded energetic goatboy.

Once a mere spydrone, BLU is known more formally as the ‘Battlefield Longevity Underminer’ - a name that Ave insists was not ‘just made up’ to keep nosy superiors away from his more exploratory projects with Technician Reznor.

Despite floatier, lighter, and arguably cuter espionage origins, BLU is effectively a walking tank to the SIR unit’s gunned-up thermos, using components from a myriad of units such as the Hunter-Destroyer, Dermis Prowler, cyberzombie battleframes, and the mentioned SIRs to create a highly intelligent and highly mobile panic button. Ideally, in the event that Elite Verloc finds himself against odds even he has to admit are quite frankly absolute garbage, BLU can smash through the wall with guns blazing to keep his steamed carcass from staying dead.

The problem is actually finishing it - BLU as a project is in flux, under the table, and likely less-than-legal even in the use of an Irken Elite under an Inquisitor. Materials are not cheap, are hard to get, and scalping some from even the luxurious stores of the Elite isn’t a very good option. Not that it’s stopped Rez or Ave from trying, but difficulties nonetheless.

Rez only has so many hands, robotic or otherwise, and Ave’s apparent blatant disregard for self preservation doesn’t make her workloads easier.

On the plus side, BLU seems to make a great walking oven and also appears quite popular with smeets!

i’ve seriously needed to make java’s design for ages and to be honest i didn’t get around to it until maybe half an hour ago

blu on the other hand has been a constant battle for months trying to figure out what i want to do

when i remember he exists, anyway

How to tell if a drone is spying on you. regularly, you’ll realize that a drone digicam is trained on you because you’ll see it with your own eyes. many drones are large enough to be smooth to spot. if it’s hovering near you for a long term, or starts coming nearer from far away, it’s likely looking you.

however, drones that you may’t see also are a danger nowadays. drones are getting smaller and more discreet, so you can’t constantly depend upon your eyes to catch a secret agent.

new era has currently hit the marketplace that will help you recognise if a drone is watching you, despite the fact that you may’t see it or hear it.

Radars.

Radars specially designed to identify drones can be enormously correct, and are even inexpensive.

Radio. you could also use radio to tune down a domestic spy camera that’s looking you. this new radio trick cannot most effective inform if a drone is close, but does a pretty precise process of telling you if it’s truly looking you, or if it’s up to extra harmless activities.

this form of radio counter-surveillance works in a totally exciting manner. so as to tell if someone or item is being watched by way of a drone digital camera, this method generates a pattern based totally on what the drone might be searching at.

then, the gadget can intercept the radio waves from any drones within the place, and notice if the pattern of the object or man or woman suggests up in what the drone is viewing. the use of radio indicators to look what the drone is looking is a surefire way to inform if the drone is spying on you.

what to do when you’re being watched with the aid of a drone camera in case you know – or simply suspect – that a drone digicam is looking you, what are you able to do? allow’s check the excellent steps you have to take.
