hmm, a lot to think about. Yeah I’m not a fan of running a cable out either, not for lawnmower issues (I can bury the wire along the perimeter) but for squirrels or curious cats

good to know!

Definitely read the Friday Black book I linked above, it touches this briefly.

I think after the first few initial times it happens, it just becomes a bit boring after a while and nuke-inclined leople will shift their focus to other things.

As for the trauma, well, time heals all

Would it be possible to have some kind of semi-heated enclosure, and put it into a garden shed (with a long extension cord)? Don’t some printers already have bed heating, and that would cover any temperature warping issues? Or is the issue that the filament will warp

Hahaha, very true

Wouldn’t you notice that the coke you drunk yesterday is still in the fridge, and the trash you emptied last night is back in the kitchen?

One of their best.

If an AI can produce a book that takes all of human creativity and blows my socks away in weaving a tapestry of storytelling, then that’s great. But I don’t see AI being used that way. I see AI being used to sell products. I see AI writing a book that sucks you in the first half, and then moralizes you about the dangers of socialism in the second half whilst promoting Wolf Cola

(Interesting about Dumas though, I had no idea. It doesn’t ruin the few books I’ve read of his for me)

You should read the Friday Black story I posted above

I imagine it wouldn’t be too difficult to travel a few hours a day to the airport and learn to fly a plane. As for going anywhere, I don’t see the point beyond doing some spectacular aerodynamics on a 747.

Crime would be something that everybody would do at some point I imagine, just out of sheer curiousity. And I think if it’s something that everyone is guilty of to the same degree and quantity, then I think people would mostly shrug it off. Carrying judgement into the next loop would not be worth it imo

Ah damn, there goes my balcony idea.

I like that, people’s relationships would continue to develop and probably large frivolous events would happen everyday (aided by ample looting of champagne and cake) until maybe people have literally nothing else left to say to each other

won’t the constant change in humidity ruin the print and the filament

tuoba gniklat uoy era ftw

That’s a interesting angle – I think eventually (past the 20 year mark) there would be a very popular and concerted effort into researching how to make it stop.

Is it really that loud? If I put it on the balcony and run it overnight, will the neighbours complain do you think?

That’s kind of what I was thinking, but thought it best to check

would money really matter in such a world? Anything you buy or sell with it will just be gone / reset the next day.

Oh, when I said “I’m with your wife”, I meant physically. No way do I agree with her.

I’m not sure if companies would go dark or if public transit will stop. There are a lot of workers who are grateful to be out of the house away from their families, and/or take peace in mindless tasks.

I definitely do see chaos and weapons reigning supreme in the first few hundred loops, but afterwards, why bother? Why takeover the world if you’re back to zero the next day.

I can imagine it would suck indeed for heavily pregnant people or people with debillitating illnesses.
