All my ideas came from when I was a kid.
Like early middle, late elementary.

Heads up for stupid.
One of them was build a Graviton "cannon". A laser of sorts that would somehow be able to pull the gravitons from matter (fuck if I know) and focus them on to another piece of matter.
So the Graviton beam would be aimed at the moon. Then used to focus all the gravitons on to the side facing the Earth. Thus simulating a more massive moon.
This would destabilize our planet causing all sorts of disasters and eventually send the moon into our planet.

I remember telling someone my plan, they pretty told me it was crazy because I would die as well. That was the fucking point.

Stirring op nuclear war would do the trick

Other options are figuring out how to ignite the atmosphere, releasing a plague, producing a butt load of a fast, painful chemical and strategically shooting it into the atmosphere, letting global warming do it's thing and then there's always shooting a butt load of nuclear reactors with lasers into space and melting the earth's surface at strategic points

Most brash /mad/sci/ way: Cast Meteor.

Most subtle /mad/sci/ way: Etymological Fractal Shattering.

Most badass /mad/sci/ way: Unleash a horde of sentient and self aware/concious abhumans. I.E (genetically engineered monsters/furries/catgirls/other races)
Then watch as humans and religions tear each other apart trying to explain it/subdue it/intergrate them.

Most idiotic /madsci/ way: Create a portal over the span of 1000 grueling years of collecting materials and open the portal in hell to unleash demons on earth.

Funnest /madsci/ way: Trick the normies with advanced science that you pawn off as magic. Then once they believe you are their Emperor obliterate this sorry planet in an act of betrayal that would make Slaneesh say "Damn kid, slow down."


My favorite though is Operation Miasma.

I wonder how much antimatter you'd need to cause a sufficiently bad explosion.
Maybe in the future we'll have the ability to produce to much of it that a single guy in a remote location could patiently generate and accumulate tons of antimatter for years and finally unleash it all at the same time in a final blast of glory.
There are people sufficiently crazy to do that, I don't know if we will ever have the tech though.

I think you are both severely underestimating how many nukes it would take to move Mercury (especially since it has no atmosphere), and overestimating how much of an impact it would have on the sun.

Now, magically removing Mercury would fsk with orbits no end, but I think if you have to wait a few hundred million years for the results, you've kinda failed.

Trigger a vacuum decay event.

Cuz why just end the Earth, when you can end the whole universe?

Maybe if you set up some giant solar panel arrays in orbit with some very accurate lasers and kugelblitz a series of black holes together at just the right spin you could figure it out. Might need to build a particle accelerator the size of the moon to measure the top particle first. Suffice to say, with less than this ability you could wipe out the planet, but hey, dream big!

Well, you wouldn't get the whole universe, just the local galactic cluster. The event would only expand at the speed of light, and space is expanding such that the blue shifted galaxies will have accelerated to safety by the time it expands that far, and forever remain beyond its grasp.

On the plus side, this means if some super-tech aliens in another galaxy figure a way to go full omnicidal in this fashion, we'll probably be safe... I knew there had to be some positive side to accelerating expansion!
