gollark: Especially since the magic phased array thing will probably dump lots of heat for all the computing and... phased-arraying, I have no idea how an optical one would actually work internally.
gollark: I think a big problem for this whole moonbrain thing might be heat.
gollark: I assume they meant *optical* phased array, given the "screen" bit, which would be different.
gollark: So why aren't there more moonbrains? *Are* there actually just loads of moonbrains?
gollark: You would expect a lot of people to do that if it was very easy.
