Saw a student once using the term “Port of Guesses” unironically in a final submission.
Like, how do you fuck up that badly that you don’t notice that? I mean obviously it was just laziness, but still.
So now I’ve got a minecraft village named the Port of Guesses in honor of that nonsense lol

there would be a small organised millitia to neutralize dangerous stilllives
Yes, but the still lifes aren’t the only danger. There is still the time warps, instability of walls and flooring with the null zones, the bacteria.
And IMO contact with the backrooms clearly a induces a form of paranoid schizophrenia, as seen by some of Kane’s work.
So it would be an inevitable disaster to use the backrooms for any useful purposes.

Haven’t watched Obsession, but I loved the Backrooms. I’ve never seen my fiancé more horrified by a movie, and a friend that was with us had to step away for a bit.
Fair warning though, the protagonist does get verbally agressive/abusive/physically abusive.
There was also a lot more gore than I was expecting, because Kane typically keeps it light.
Easily one of my favorite movies this year.

While it isn’t humorous, it still fits in terms of being memetic, as in it is an idea meant to be spread around.

When I started my current job it was a proper 9-5 with a half hour paid lunch.
They’ve now switched us to an hour unpaid lunch, but everyone basically just ignores it.
And in both cases many of those hours are downtime.

I loved the lore, the feel of danger in low/nullsec. But I just don’t have time for a second job.

You definitely wouldn’t want to do this all the way to geosynchronous orbit. Just getting it to the edge of space is already ridiculous to the point where it has me questioning how much pressure and heat the stone at the bottom would reach, and therefore how stable it would be.
And for a super earth, getting out of the soupy atmosphere is a challenge in of itself, so getting rid of that challenge would already be an incredible head start. From there you’d just need engines powerful enough to get you up to speed before hitting the ground.
Like one thing is how tall can you get before the base encircles the planet (where trying to add more layers just makes the planet bigger and requires bringing in outside material, which means your geosync orbit gets farther).
Gut vibe tells me that probably wouldn’t be a problem, as the atmosphere on any given planet, even a super earth, is only about as thin as the skin of an apple. And that’s all you’d need to beat here.
Could a large enough pyramid give the planet a wobble?
Absolutely. Though again gut vibe tells me it would probably only be a wobble of a few millimeters, nowhere near enough for anybody to feel it.
Assuming you had a perfectly strong material that could handle it, is it possible to build a tower to a geosynchronous orbit or will it keep moving away as you add mass to the tower?
I think at a certain point you’d be far enough up that you could reasonably just build a space elevator on top of the pyramid out of normal-ish materials like steel. The farther up you start the less of a foot you have in the gravity well, and the less distance your steel needs to support. At that point it would maybe be worth it do build a counterweight and go to geosynchronous orbit.
Another thing to keep in mind, if some civilization was crazy enough to do this, hopefully they’d be smart enough to do it around their equator to reduce the amount of pyramid of doom they’d need to build. But that would probably also mean bulldozing lots of countries and mass migrations.
- Comment on Lmao 2 months ago:
It definitely would, but I’m guessing you’d run into the issue of stability far before that.
I’m also guessing that the ratio of atmospheric extension to terrain extension would be on the side of terrain extension. Gravity is a rather weak force in comparison to the other forces of the universe.
This would be a fantastic xkcd “What if?” question if it isn’t already.

I wonder at what point it is worth building a ~space elevator~ space pyramid.
Just keep stacking rocks until you’re a few dozen miles away from the edge of space.
