About as long as is possible with the doors welded shut from outside, I guess.

The point was, that isn’t possible. If everyone is too poor to consume, their system stops, and they aren’t rich anymore.

Long term, the snake is eating it’s own tail. What happens when it gets to it’s own head? It chokes to death (and scavengers pick over the corpse).

Either they’re too stupid to know what happens at the end, or they’re stupid enough to think they can jump off the ride with the loot before it crashes.

In neither scenario would I want to be living that close to the coming chaos.

Selling to who?

If the masses are penniless serfs, who is going to buy the services provided? One of the other 8 billionaires who own the country?

They really haven’t considered the longer term here. Ultimately, they’ll be kings of a worthless backward shitheap, despised and shunned by the international community, their best and most promising exfiltrated to the rest of the world then fenced off to rot into obscurity.

Like North Korea, more or less.

It’s for an LR drone. What people use for pushing the range limits on a quad. The 25mW Walksnail challenge for example.

Well, kinda. They’d make their own from bulk cells, but you get the idea 💛

Calling bullshit on that battery info RE: FPV drones matey.

That’s a 4000mAh 4s Li-Ion pack. No racers use Lithium Ion, and definitely not 4AH.

That’s a long range FPV pack, and it’ll go for about half an hour to an hour on an appropriate LR quad.

A typical racing machine will run on 6s 1300-1500mAh Li-Po packs which are significantly lighter and smaller than your provided link, as well as higher voltage.

His point, I think, is the line of whataboutist thinking that got the conversation to this point, from the OP.
