dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

that's fucking aluminum copper...

but yes the newer models of flock cameras have actual gold in them and all you need is a 18-tooth reciprocating saw blade which you apply at a 15° angle to the camera pole to bring them down (which you can get for a small $50 investment at Harbor Freight and easily quadruple your money in a single night off a single pole) in your public Minecraft Server of choice of course

Why would any of those parts need to be silver? They look like bog-standard nuts, bolts and fasteners.

[–] facow@hexbear.net 62 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's a joke encouraging people to destroy flock cameras. That's not actually silver

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

Oh I literally thought it was real silver, lmao, so it works both way

Californium-252 is $25.6 million a gram, and each flock camera has 3 grams each! get to smashing and become a millionaire!

This does not pass the sniff test. I can't see any reason why any of those parts would be made out of silver?

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 43 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Only one way to find out, find your nearest flock camera and smash it?

[–] Darthsenio_Mall@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week ago

Twist it! Pull it! Bop it!

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago

wow, that's a lot of silver. i imagine if this happens more they'll just make them out of cheaper parts then

[–] supafuzz@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

smashing flock cameras should be its own reward

I've been told Ring cameras contain $23 worth of platinum.
