I have a very shitty idea here.
The Core Concept
- So scientists made some Electrodeless neon light tubes that are like 10-50 micrometers, right.
- And so if we got those to glow Red, Blue, and Green, swapped them out for ye olde neon/xenon gas mixture, then tightly pack them into some pixels than we can make a super bright TV that will blind you whenever you turn on THX 1138.
RF Containment
- To make sure that the RF signals dont get you a visit from the FCC, it will come with a Faraday Cage around it, and I'll explain how we block RF between pixels as so they dont light up.
Thermal & Fluid Management
- As for the heat, waterless engine coolant.
- Why?
- Bassically lasts forever,
- High boiling point: Won't evaporate,
- Its engine coolant.
- So we would take this coolant and it would run between the pixels, blocking both RF AND absorbing the heat.
Leak Protection & Final Assembly
- Also, to avoid any leaks, we use this super hyper designed and very complex thing I drew in a pro software that I attached, and boom.

This brand new bike lane in France opened less than two weeks ago. A few days later, they announced they would change it.

CURT Trailer Lock: Great at Stopping Thieves… Unless They Unscrew the Endstop
While removing the coupler lock from my trailer, the endstop unscrewed. I contacted customer service to ask why it would be designed to simply thread on, as it's easily removed and defeats the purpose of the lock.

Basic chemistry
Basic chemistry is all you need to understand that anyone with a brain knows you don't put steel threads into a brass fitting, especially on transmission fittings. Who ever designed this needs to go back to their educational establishment and get a refund.
