    While youre at it could you whip me up a post-scarcity fully-automated utopia real quick?

    source
    • balderdash9@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      It is the Golden Age of humanity. Robots serve, CRISPR cured, and war became unnecessary. Earth becomes a paradise–pure perfection. And so we turn our eyes to the stars. The human race spreads throughout the galaxy. We encounter alien species and subsequently, in our magnanimity, conquer them. We are unity. Every life-form will submit to the peace of our administration: or they will perish.

    A pillow with the perfect height and that doesn’t flatten after a week of use.

    • Dozzi92@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I chased this for a while. One was never enough, two too many. Got gifted pillows by my wife a couple times, nothing ever worked. Finally found one, and it’s been huge. We also put a pad on top of our mattress, and don’t know if it’s the combination of that plus the pillow, but for the last few years I’ve used just this one pillow, and it’s been great. I take it with me when we go somewhere for a night.

      source
    • balderdash9@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Done! But I have given the magic pillow to someone else who isn’t you. They frequently oversleep and are often late for work:

    5 acres of woodland in the Appalachian Mountains. With a small house on it. Could be 1 room like an old style cabin.

      You are transported to a homestead deep within the Appalachian Mountains. You see seeds, goats, chickens, some tools, a shed, and a small house. The homestead is magically separated from the rest of the world. You are doomed to survive by the fruit of your toil, stranded for decades without electricity or modern conveniences:

        Sounds like heaven.

        And I’d survive just fine. I was raised in a similar situation. Third world poor in the US. I can raise a garden. I can hunt and forage. I can make a bow and arrows. I can tan hides for leather. I know the basics of blacksmithing.

    Hello wise one,

    I find the Earth’s gravity of 9.80665m/s² a bit much. Sometimes my back hurts from standing too long, and the general weight of existence sits heavy on my shoulders.

    Can you make it a bit more comfortable please. Maybe 9.80664?

    source
    • wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      You find yourself suddenly 3 meters up in the air, which is sufficient to change your personal gravitational acceleration by 0.00001 m/s^2. As you can imagine, it is not fun to fall 3 meters. You do anyway.

      source
    • balderdash9@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Sure, I have now reduced the Earth’s gravity to 9.80664% of it’s previous value (i.e., ~0.96m/s²) by removing material in the Earth’s core and mantle. Everything on Earth now weighs less than on the moon. Earthquakes shake the planet, massive fissures swallow cities whole, and the atmosphere begins to disperse into the vacuum of space. Humans barely have enough time to escape to the moon and Mars: the vast majority are left behind. On the bright side, your back no longer hurts:

    100 tacos for $100 deal at the local shack

    source
    • balderdash9@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      The printers at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing run wild printing money; the Federal Reserve distributes the money across the country. Hyperinflation like the United States has never seen drives the prices of goods and services up 90%. The $100 tacos now cost $1000. You may still choose to purchase them, however:

      Image

      source
      • ivanafterall@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        90% of $100 is $90. So the tacos are $190, or $1.90 each. Still a solid deal.
