With any luck, hackers will turn them into penises

Or a 9/11 recreation

So what do you think is going on in the prime universe?

If these are drones and someone does this irl I'm going to shoot them down

Drone-based sky projections/light shows typically use hundreds or thousands of them. Good luck.

So you're saying we should use an EMP?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Well, if terrorism is your goal…

Someone could build an emp with a wave guide in their garage and just aim them at the drones

Just look at online forums and youtubers who are in the DIY electronics space

You could even make one from parts of a plasma globe

Full terrorist might be a bit much, but I wouldn't be opposed to punching holes in packaging of the advertised products.

If the trend caught on at a large enough scale to just mildly vandalize space-billboard products, that shit would stop in a hurry.

...hell we should do that with regular billboards too - gimme my scenery back!

Billboards really ought to be illegal.

I disagree. A society that sells the night sky to private interest deserves to burn.

......on second thought... yeah.

@[email protected], I propose a solution to this conundrum:

  • Terrorizing bourgeoisie = good
  • Terrorizing proletariat = bad

It’s never too early to be an eco-terrorist

I don't understand the increasingly aggressive ads. When I see a company advertising heavily I get sketched out and assume they have subpar product.

This is the first time I've seen the original tweet without Johnny Silverhand
