Balloons, probably. Like a WWI reconnaissance blimp. With modern optics that thing could survey the entire beach without moving.

Sure, but having something actually happen when the actor pulls the trigger gives them something to react to. These aren’t impossible hurdles but shooting blanks is way easier.
In addition to the other thing, dams have a dramatic and disastrous impact on the ecology in the immediate area and the entire riparian system they connect to. It’s “green” in terms of emissions but they’re still harmful and we should be phasing them out for lower impact alternatives as much as possible.
Why assume that an illusion must have a constructor?
I’d rather be nuked than starve to death.
A lot of those island colony-states aren’t self-sufficient and will have massive famines when the trade routes stop.
I had a Game Boy, that got a lot of use.
This supreme court? I wouldn’t count on it.
That assumes that interstellar travel is possible. Physically, economically, socially, there’s a lot of boxes to check for near-light extrasolar expansion (let alone FTL, which probably is impossible)
I think the easy solution to the Fermi Paradox is that we’re stuck in our fish bowl and so is everyone else.
Transparency? In the agricultural sector? Madness.
Fine face-to-face but still vote to make your existence illegal. I’m not alright with that kind of “civility” and it’s the reason I don’t connect with an arm of my extended family. Fuck em.
We’ll probably live to see robot towns, where a small contingent of maintenence workers keep a huge fleet of automated farming/processing/shipping equipment operational. If they’re lucky Monsanto will buy a restaurant chain so there’s somewhere for them to eat nearby.
Tempered glass is still sharp but it breaks into tiny pieces so it can’t cut deeply.
We’ve got 15 million vacant homes in the US.
They are necessities and should be detached from the market.
Hey Withers, here’s 100 gold to turn a better character into whatever role I need.
Something about “calls for violence”
I don’t think chickens are usually referred to as “dog-sized” even if it’s occasionally true.
Gulls are an integral part of the beach ecosystem, and far less obnoxious than nature-hating people.
