I was thinking while i was playing my gameboy about screens without a backlight, and realized something. it might be possible to use an switchable glass panel (more about it here: https://www.cantifix.co.uk/blog/what-is-switchable-glass-and-how-does-it-work/#:~:text=In the most simple terms,it's very much a reality.) paired with a mirror behind it. in front of this would be a clear backlight & lcd panel. I honestly dont care if people take my idea, as long as they give credit. i just think it should exist... but maybe the reason it doesnt exist yet is because its stupid? idk, any ideas that might improve this or make this possible/exist just let me know. oh also, maybe there should be an ideas forum? Edit: it looks like there might be one- though i dont know if its an idea for a forum or an idea forum. (i also just realized that it could be used as a way to take someones idea and profit off of it. maybe not a great idea? maybe a disclaimer saying "BEWARE, ideas may be stolen. dont post anything here you dont want to be stolen")

Ever since i had ideas on how to improve my own country, i always thought it would be cool to make one... but the thing is i dont know how. I've thought about doing a charter city instead but i'd love full independence to experiment with certain policies, governments, economic systems, how houses are built, how you vote, public transportation... you get the idea. i dont want it to be big, maybe the size of a medium city. this city would be more for experimentation at first (haven't considered the troubles of redesigning a city rapidly.) if you think this discussion should go somewhere else please let me know, i wasnt quite sure where this would belong. and yes, i am aware this is (probably) the stupidest idea ever thought.
