That’s the moon. Tech bros just invented the moon.

Zipitydew ,

I’d learn towards it being that they learned about Dyson sphere. And didn’t really understand as tech bros do.

FireRetardant ,

Do we not remember when futurama tried this and accidently lasered a convention?

On a more serious note, how is it fair if say a neighbouring business orders this service and now what, your whole neighbourhood just doesn’t get night time anymore? The local climate just gets a few degrees hotter, no biggie?

dependencyinjection ,

This has to be a crash grab. Like it’s absurd, not only can I not think why you would want this service I wonder how the logistics of moving it to a location and pissing off people that don’t want it to be daylight.

Facts.

If we had a functioning government we’d make these billion-dollar space boondoggles clean up their own shit.

I hope that when this happens, ASAT-missiles are common enough that I’ll be able to get one.

Covoid ,

If I wake up at 1AM and it’s daylight because my neighbor paid 1bn for some mirror time I’m becoming a terrorist

nick ,

Fucking stupid. Shoot these idiots into the sun if they love it so much.

meticulousmind ,

This sounds like a suckier version of a death ray.

PunchingWood ,

I remember Russians talking about space billboards at some point.

Glad that never came off the ground.

Imagine a gigantic glowing billboard and passing over at night.
