They’re not getting shot at
Assuming they’re telling us everything that’s happening on Mars, that is.
Where’s the kaboom?
Yeah, I have my own thoughts about Ingenuity. With how long it took for the report there was clearly a lot of cover up.
Ingenuity my beloved I’ll avenge you and retaliate against the Martians if I ever get to go to Mars.

It’s like playing Age of Empires over dialup. One minute you’re happily building a little army and keeping your farms going. Then some asshole with cable internet comes along and faster than you can blink, your army is destroyed, villagers murdered, and your city burned to the ground.
I regularly played with ping 100-150 and still managed to make it to the top 32 players
Honestly, it depends on the netcode implementation.
TF2 hitscan and projectiles work remarkably well even at 100+ ping.
TF2 melee hit detection functions like a dice roll above 40 lol.
It would be comparable if NASA scientists were racing against someone else controlling another vehicle over there with less ping.
P.S. I’m not saying it isn’t challenging - it surely is, but it’s like connecting to your home computer over a shitty connection to play a single player game.
What is this image from?
Iron Giant I believe. Though he’s not actually holding a mug of himself 😄
Based on a google search it is. It looked kind of familiar. I need to watch that movie again. Thank you!
