The year is 2025, /sci/ has formed a community floating from a giant blimp Anonymous Mon Aug 22 04:06:37 2011 No.3606339 [Reply] [Original]

How do we delegate responsibilities? What are the laws, if any, and how do we enforce them? How do we defend our home? What do we produce and export to pay our expenses? What is it like to live 5000 feet above the ground?

/sci/ is at it's best while brainstorming, have at it. And when 2025 rolls around, provided enough people can pony up $35 grand each, and we can get access to a whole heap of lighter than air gas, something like this could plausibly happen.

>delegate responsibilities.
We'll if it is all people from /sci/ we would probably have a meeting to decide on it.

>What are the laws/enforcing them
If everyone from /sci/ decided to live on a floating blimp i doubt any of them would start trouble. If they did we could just kick them out.

>defend
If we built it ourselves and owned it i doubt anyone would bother us unless we invented something governments wanted. If so we should develop a defense mechanism first.

>What do we produce and export
This is where all these threads fall short and show that itll never work.

>what is it like to live 500 feet above the ground.
Well if you've been on a blimp before it would just be like that at an extended amount of time.

Anyways, nothing like this will happen in the year 2025.
Everyone's sense of time is skewed.

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 22 04:17:37 2011 No.3606359 I think we should just build a facility under the sea. Floating in air is so boring. It would be way more fun to peer through murky water at the brain coral outside your window.

Underground base:

- depending on depth we would be protected from nearly every weapon
- if we can produce our own food using underground water we're golden
- we can use a ventilation shaft and when it gets sealed we can produce our own oxygen
- being earthquake prone would not be a problem if we choose least seismic location

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 22 04:29:37 2011 No.3606386 Who the hell would do all the labour work?

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 22 04:30:37 2011 No.3606392 >>3606388 Not with this level of technology. we would need humans to do most of the labour work, and i know /sci/ is not willing to get its precious hands dirty.

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 22 04:31:37 2011 No.3606396 >>3606392 I don't see why you're so pessimistic about progress. It's not like we were created with our present level of technology.

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 22 04:33:37 2011 No.3606399 >>3606396 Im just saying there is no such thing as a perfect society. after a certain amount of time, /sci/town would just end up like america if it is lucky.
