Isn’t this bappening in Ukraine daily?

bought Ṁ50 YES

I would say this has already happened https://youtu.be/pVU503OJE_U?si=Oc4c7sfFbBi_MAbG

if drones don't count, are we excluding all air-borne robots?

@DZC Basically consumer goods / robots like NEO.

@CDX im still confused. drones are consumer goods. giving examples "like NEO" doesn't make it clear what the boundaries of the category are. I assume that since you made the market, you don't think this has happened yet. I want to know what definition of robot excludes @Silverpawn 's provided evidence. maybe revise criteria to just "humanoid"?
