If we could agree on such a great project and make it happen, that would have a massive benefit for our overcoming the very problem you are talking about.
If we could just agree to do something great together then that in itself would solve a lot of social ills.
It makes a lot of sense in the "Elysium" sense. A rich resort getaway.
It wouldnt be all blue and nice sky either, because no atmosphere. Unless they tinted the glass blue I guess but even then you would either have a permanent night or permanent full on solar hyper radiation. Like how would lighting that even work?
You'd clearly have a roof/floor all over, and it would all be artificial light.
Oh, and levels. You'd get way more use out of the space by making sublevels. But maybe they have that in the picture it's hard to say. Shit, all that dead space would be filled top to bottom of the torus, why leave all those precious cubics empty?
In that it is completely unrealistic and defies physics?
Thank god that isn't a thing on Earth....
Cool and interesting seems like two amazing reasons to do it.
I hate that we live under a mental paradigm that the only thing that matters is efficiency, ad infinitum and ad nauseam.
Shit, the nazis were super efficient, doesn't mean they had a good thing going.

Cooperation, not competition. That is the key.
100%.
The one thing global society lacks is direction. Shit even my dad told me that my whole life.
We're like, let's all compete about money and random great things will or might happen as a by-product.
Bitch we need to figure out what we want to do and do that, not just wing it and hope for the best.

If would be DS9, not Rama.
Hahaha right? It'd be a few highrise metropolitan buildings and then mostly low income slum and there'd be thousands of cars and no parking spots.
Rendezvous with Rama
Same here.
Im volcel.
You misunderstood. The tyrannical government they talk about is democracy.
I wish I was joking.
Their whole shtick is that they need it for home protection. Doesn't make sense from that point of view.
But a pretty good one if your toddler knows how to unlock your safe and operate a gun. That's pretty impressive.
The kitchen and the bathroom. Never go in there if you value your life.
I thought this was at least semi-common knowledge.
This goes for your film DVDs too! It's really a shame.
They degrade in 10-15 years. That's if you keep them in the box, otherwise, about 2 weeks as far as I remember.
Anyone else remember Samantha Fox Strip Poker? We knew shit about poker but we brute forced that shit until we got to see titties.
Oh also Sex Games.
You had to jerk the joystick back and forth super fast and let me tell you, it was really hard.
Genuinely, that is art.
Man yells at thing

He offloaded that on some else!
Clankist.
