This can't possibly go wrong

Easier to just throw a Coke out of a plane. 😏

Crazy? I was crazy once. I was locked in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. And rats drive me CRAAZZZZYYY

Please this hasn’t been funny in months. Just let it die already.

Everything I know about honey badgers I learnt because of a bottle of coke.

Oof. That movie was one hell of ride.

“The Gods Must be Crazy”

The sentinelese see right through that bullshit. Leave them alone.

Sometimes I wonder if they’re the last sane people on the planet. Then I remember we have antibiotics, and my mom has a power wheelchair, and I wonder if there can’t be some middle ground.

Solarpunk and anarchism are what you’re looking for

Found the theories a few years ago, desperately hoping we find the reality at some point

They have the true “reject modernity, return to monke” vibe

they wouldn’t need antibiotics if they’re isolated

Infection is still a thing

I hope this is a bad joke.

Not unless bacteria is somehow covering the entire surface of the earth except the tiny little island they live on

Yep. From the North Sentinel Island wikipedia page:

The islanders have been observed shooting arrows at boats, as well as at **low-flying helicopters. **

If they’re shooting at a helicopter, I don’t think they’ll think about a bunch of drones any differently.

Well the north alabamese also shoot at helicopters yet would totally be fooled by a giant face in the sky

People trying to shoot down a helicopter with bows and arrows is a hilarious thing to picture

Well they did succeed in making it go away, so there’s that

Edit: This is a bit of a tongue in cheek joke

At this point I’m getting concerned with the amount of climate change we’ve got going on if they may be forced to relocate in the not too distant future

Relocate? To where? The whole planet is fucked, not just the tropics.

The highlands of scandinavia should be safer than most and might suit them, with rømmegrøt and hallingdans on Hardangervidda

Pacific Northwest is probably okay that’s why we are trying to build dual power to replace the government when it collapses and fight the Nazis who want to do the same

This would be the best reason to contact, not to convert them as Christian goons are trying to do

It won’t work if we are already their demons.

Already happened with cargo cults didn’t it.

No - drone light shows weren’t used in cargo cults

You don’t say! I hope my meaning was clear.

You don’t know that.

You gotta go all the way and also get a few LRAD devices to project the voice of God.

But if the tribe is uncontacted no one outside the tribe can speak their language

That’s not necessarily true. They may speak the same language, or a very similar language as/to a tribe nearby that is contacted.

Program an AI to detect and roughly learn the language.

Really put the matrix to the test. Can AI effectively lead the most basic “civilization” left on the planet and then watch elon fuck it up.

ai can’t translate languages while being given JUST phrases in the target language. It needs phrases in the target language AND English translations

That’s not how it works

This sounds like the sort of fucked up thing someone could write a SF novel about. Imagine thinking a test for AI is worth messing with innocent people’s lives.

Rules:

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
