basically a one time use battery that can be designed to power any device from a flashlight to a very large space ship for a "lifetime".

a shipstone for your house would be 5 or so feet across, about 5 feet high and a few inches thick. is "charged" at the factory and lasts a "lifetime" which is not defined in the book, so about 100 years. they were also very cheap to make, but not explained how. sold for very low amounts of money also not specified.

I was in a chinese propaganda thread on /his/ and had a moment. Anons were discussing how the chair wasn't introduced to China until 1200 A.D., less than 1000 years ago if you didn't know. The pillow (in the strictest sense of a personal pillow for your head) was also late-developing in China. It made me think about the default state of mankind. European body types are expressive, rising or tumbling or rolling toward some florid expression. Any default was thrown into chaos long ago. There's something ancient about the standing chinese, they're like an ancient civilization. You stand to live, you lie down to sleep. There's no reclining on a couch or melting into a puddle of flesh, unless you're doing it to purposefully flex wealth. That will fix your back.

I may actually do something like this.

I've also thought of a quad copter with a can of wasp spray.
