And you still can’t get any of that
Shitty AI generated Dyson Sphere is off-center. Whole thing is going to destabilize and collapse.
That’s what happened to Larry Niven’s Ringworld. Cool concept but laughably unsupported by basic Physics. Niven had to write a sequel not because anybody wanted to see more of his characters but because he was tired of readers telling him what a moron he was.
The Integral Trees was a way better concept and much better thought out.
O’Neill cylinders are the only real reliable megastructure that would actually function.
Though it would need to be way bigger than the ship depicted in The Expanse or the gyroscopic forces would be too strong for anybody to be able to operate.
It doesn’t even look like anything, it’s just a random rectangles.
When you subcontract your dyson sphere out to the lowest bidding AI.
I like the one with the warm center, the one warf goes into over and over.
Sadly, neither are achievable at your current technology level
But even if it were, wouldn’t a dyson sphere on the sun mean no more sunlight left for the rest of us humans on earth? We’d have to build it on a neighboring star, which would then complicate bringing it back.
You aren’t a psycopath with a business degree, I see!
The sphere isn’t fully opaque, so we can redirect sunlight to paying subscribers.
You could just build it as two hemispheres and then have a slit in the middle align to the orbital plane. You could have a few corridors every now and then as they wouldn’t really block out much light.
Although that wouldn’t really be a problem since in order to get enough material to actually build it you would need to dismantle most of the planets in the system including Earth. Which does rather present a difficulty and I suspect would be a major political blocker.
You just have to construct additional pylons.
We require more vespene gas
This is good advice. I never used to get laid then I constructed additional pylons and harvested more vespene gas and now I have 30 girlfriends who all sleep with me in a pile.
I always heard their little quips as “My wife for Aiur!”
Sharing is caring
so 60 supply of adepts i presume
Assuming it’s achievable at all
Absolute banger video.
Only exists in my head ✅✅
I hate it when people use multiple metric prefixes, a trillion terrawatts is a quettawatt. Also hate it when news reports use “a million gigabytes”, like please just use a petabyte, it is way more impressive anyway.
And “a thousand kilometers” is a megameter; but if you say that, people will think you’re bonkers.
i will use that from now on

It’s “terawatts” with one r. Also that’s a somewhat common unit so I can imagine it much better than when it’s converted to something I’ve never heard of. “Trillion” isn’t even a metric prefix btw, it’s just a number.
This is assuming my girlfriend is hot. And that she exists.
Edit: though I don’t think a Dyson sphere exists either, so we’re making a lot of assumptions here.
Or that she’s high maintenance.
Dyson Spheres are based on a satirical paper by Freeman Dyson, so it doesn’t even really exist as a serious idea either.
The interatellar factory game, however, is fantastic.
Me, looking at my Dyson vacuum: “you can do what”
WKYK, oh yeah
High maintenance? Probably not. There will be an easy way or it won’t be worthwhile.
I imagine it’s still not an “install and forget” kind of situation. At least one fulltime employee will be needed for that thing. 😆
are we talking about the girlfriend? Do you have pool?

Was a joke from the start: ✅ ✅
Never been asleep next to a woman generating enough heat to power a sphere
How about enough to power a Dyson?
She never uses it
Hot
Depends.
Vacuum cleaner tech at it’s best.
What about when she’s angry?
The dyson sphere?
