I just started flying FPV drones and in the Liftoff simulator on steam you can download models of Ukranian drones with payloads to practice flying one of these. I just thought that was interesting.

You should read Ender's Game if you haven't already.

I love Ender's Game, I've read it twice! Oohh yeah were they controlling ships via FPV in the war?

I think they're making a joke about how when you're playing Liftoff simulator you might be flying them in real life.

It's just a game... Or is it?!

I was wanting to make that joke in a helldiver's 2 thread the other day. I couldn't figure out how to phrase it and in the end I decided not to. Woulda been funny AF tho
