Welcome to c/writing!
This is a space for all kinds of discussion referring to writing. This could include the structure and style found in different types of writing, authors worth talking about, different genres, trends, etc.
This is also a space for users who wish to share their own writing for feedback. This could look like independently posting excerpts of poems/prose/plays or it could be replying to one of the writing prompt threads. Brainstorming and worldbuilding ideas are welcome too!
Ideally, this will be a community where we work together to become better writers and appreciators of writing in all its forms.
All that said, please note that Code of Conduct still applies here. Please apply content warnings where applicable and spoiler material that might be inappropriate.

furiously packing my bags
Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
daa dada
won't you take me to
horneytown
No it doesn't. GPS would need a battery or solar or something like that. RFID sure, but that's only useful in close proximity. So silly, like those fake security cameras that have no cables.
Steal both
Why couldn't the sign have battery or solar? That was my assumption.
There's no visible power connections, and that mount does not appear to contain any wiring either. The battery would die pretty fast without something keeping it charged up. You could also just wrap the sign in EM blocking material after stealing it to avoid any potential tracking. No solar panels are visible either.
Seriously doubt there is any actual tracking. If there was, I'm sure someone would have pranked them by leaving the sign at a strip club or something like that.
I mean, you're probably right. Though I don't think it's toooo unreasonable to suspect a solar panel and battery could be stuck in there, the chances aren't huge.
Photo of other side needed. Why not get all angles of horneytown??
Reminds me of how they had to have mile marker 419.9 on (I think) I-70 near Denver because the 420 mile marker kept getting stolen
I feel like you could order a metal green sign that says whatever you want on it.
