When I was like 7, I figured that since orange soda tastes good and cocoa tastes good, mixing cocoa powder in orange soda would taste good.

I was proved wrong very quickly and developed a phobia for orange+chocolate for a decade.

    You could attach the kites to the blimp though? I'd imagine you could make the ground tether/power cable cheaper and lighter by using a heavier duty transformer with higher voltage, which would be more viable on the blimp. Then have the blimp spread out a fleet of kites when at correct altitude with simpler electronics.

    My life hack: when I'm holding a thing, I think "If I was looking for this, where would I look first?" and I put it there. Works pretty well, I've found stuff like the phone sim opening push-pin things etc. with it.
