Though some may claim it exists to facilitate testing of wiki syntax, I know its true purpose. It is a haven for all who have wiki accounts, such that they may post whatever their heart desires." -- Sun Tzu (Unprompted) [Sun Tzu? Is that a made up name? Who even is that?] ---- =====Osmium Cube Review===== All the people here who bought this wireless osmium cube to admire its surreal heft have precisely the wrong mindset. I, in my exalted wisdom and unbridled ambition, bought this cube to become fully accustomed to the intensity of its density, to make its weight bearable and in fact normal to me, so that all the world around me may fade into a fluffy arena of gravitational inconsequence. And it has worked, to profound success. I have carried the osmium with me, have grown attached to the downward pull of its small form, its desire to be one with the floor. This force has become so normal to me that lifting any other object now feels like lifting cotton candy, or a fluffy pillow. Big burly manly men who pump iron now seem to me as little children who raise mere aluminum. I can hardly remember the days before I became a man of osmium. How distant those days seem now, how burdened by the apparent heaviness of everyday objects. I laugh at the philistines who still operate in a world devoid of osmium, their shoulders thin and unempowered by the experience of bearing osmium. Ha, what fools, blissful in their ignorance, anesthetized by their lack of meaningful struggle, devoid of passion. Nietzsche once said that a man who has a why can bear almost any how. But a man who has a osmium cube can bear any object less dense, and all this talk of why and how becomes unnecessary. Schopenhauer once said that every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. Osmium expands the limits of a man’s field of vision by showing him an example of increased density, in comparison to which the everyday objects to which he was formerly accustomed gain a light and airy quality. Who can lament the tragedy of life, when surrounded by such lightweight objects? Who can cry in a world of styrofoam and cushions? Have you yet understood? This is no ordinary metal. In this metal is the alchemical potential to transform your world, by transforming your expectations. Those who have not yet held the cube in their hands and mouths will not understand, for they still live in a world of normal density, like Plato’s cave dwellers. Those who have opened their mind to the density of osmium will shift their expectations of weight and density accordingly. To give this cube a rating of anything less than five stars would be to condemn life itself. Who am I, as a mere mortal, to judge the most compact of all affordable materials? No. I say gratefully to whichever grand being may have created this universe: good job on the osmium. It sure is dense. I sit here with my osmium cube, transcendent above death itself. For insofar as this osmium cube will last forever, I am in the presence of immortality. =====A Warning, to All who would Post Here===== This place is a page, and part of a system of pages, pay attention to it! Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be powerful GMs. This place is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here. Nothing valued is here. What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. This message is a warning about danger. The danger is in a particular location. it increases towards a center. the center of danger is here, below this post. The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours. The danger is to the body, and it can kill. The form of the danger is an emanation of energy. <del>The danger is unleashed only if you substantially disturb this place's formatting.

In some cases, there is a comment from the Starship Naming Committee outlining reasons for rejection. * The Doppler Effect * [There's no sound in space] * [There is light though, so there is Doppler Affect. Wait how does light work at FTL? Nah nevermind this name should be rejected. Thats physics I dont want to do right there] * [You work on spaceships going faster than light. Your //job// is physics] * NNNNNNYYYYYYYOoooooommmmm * [Infantile. Still no sound in space] * Fine. Is "Red Shift" good enough for you? * [A ships name should not reference the Starship Naming Committee. "Red Shift" has been greenlit as a potential ship name] * We Come In Peace * [Too "on the nose"] * We Do Not Come In Peace * [No.] * We Probably Come In Peace * Shoot First, Come In Peace Later * We Come In Pieces * Peace Is Debatable * [Note from the Committee: Engineer Galbak is no longer allowed to submit ship name requests] * Ok, This Time We Mean The Bit About Peace * [Note: That was clearly Engineer Galbak in a fake mustache. Name request denied] * One Ring To Rule Them All * [Name denied until Flight Engineer Tol'Keen explains what this means] * Spacey McSpaceface * [Public votes are //not// a valid way to name FTL ships] * My Other Spaceship Is A Sports Car * Silent But Deadly * Breaking The Speed Limit * [Yes. This is an FTL ship] * [EXPLETIVE] Newton * [Refrain from putting explicit language in ship names. Also who is Newton?] * [EXPLETIVE] Maxwell Too * [See above, on both counts] * Einstein Can [EXPLETIVE] my [EXPLETIVE] * [Note: Categorical ban on insulting made-up people] * Researcher Arokne [EXPLETIVE] Mote can [EXPLETIVE] her [EXPLETIVE][EXPLETIVE] and [EXPLETIVE], then [EXPLETIVE] that too. * [Note: Categorical ban on insulting //anyone//, fictional or not.

Detective Garibaldi, evidently, by all of it that he's left lying around. Well, as they say, one man's rubbish is another man's rubbish, or something like that. And you're close enough to a man that you qualify (probably). After two weeks of searching and scrounging, you eventually find: * A piece of paper * Book, 1/200th of * Compressed wood pulp * Document, page of * E-mail, non-electronic version * Flyer * Gluestick * Handwritten note * Invite, wedding * Journal entry * Key (for a map) * Legend (for a map) * Maths homework, dog-eaten * Newspaper, front page of * One piece of paper * Post-It note * Quill * Rock * Scissors * Teeth * Unwritten letter * Very big piece of paper * Wood, pulped and pressed * Xylems, paper containing * You guessed it, another piece of paper * Zero more pieces of paper With these materials, you decide to put together a couple copies of your biography; 'Squidgy: Sailing the Seven Space Seas and Some Secrets to Salvage your Story'. Unfortunately, once it is wrapped, it looks identical to the explosives you acquired! So you decide to just send out all six packages, to be on the safe side and make sure someone gets your invaluable book. ==Minor Actions:== * You send identical, suspicious-looking packages to The Second Scale Pack, Veiled Brightness, Thealynara Veeris, Lina, Talon Veldis "Vel" Tangasa and Fathomless Depths, which read 'Opening this will change your life!'. They smell vaguely of oil and smoke.

Documented on video camera by Head Librarian Acleaf Singreen, a digital copy has been uploaded to the Guild Network, along with this transcript, “for posterity”. Current evidence suggests this was premeditated, although whose idea this was originally is uncertain. Whilst alcohol was provided at the event, it is unclear as to how much had been imbibed by the participants. Notably, Bookend is an artificial intelligence, and knew full well what it was doing. [Archivist’s note: It seems unfair to single out Bookend for this incident, when all three were equally culpable.] [Archivist’s note: Notes on the report made by the subject of said report damage the academic validity of the investigation.] Transcript begins: [The camera shows a crowd in a social area of the station. It appears to be early evening. In the centre of the frame are two individuals. Humphrey Didac and Arokne Mote. The camera is shaky, and at the bottom of the shot the backs of heads can be seen, as if the camera were being held by a member of the crowd. The video begins with Humfree singing with piano accompaniment to the tune of the Galaxy Song, originally by Carlo Javascript. Parts of speech being sung will be denoted by //italics//] Humfree: //Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving And revolving at point 4 kilometres a second,// Arokne: (interjected) Approximately. Humfree:// That's orbiting at thirty kilometres a second,// Arokne: or so… Humfree: (Visibly annoyed) //so it's reckoned, A star that is the source of all our power.// Arokne: Well that’s just not true, is it. ‘Cause there’s uranium in the core of Khartes, isn’t there, which is the source of about half the energy heating the planet. Not to mention the energy in the starships orbiting with us, which normally take nuclear fuel from Corico or the Thousand Colours Moon, rather than native to our– Humfree: (Interrupting) //The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see Are moving at a 16 million kilometres a day.// [Inaudible corrections from Arokne] //In an outer spiral arm, at 13 kilometres a second// [Humfree turns to Arokne] Arokne: Yes! Humfree: //Of the galaxy we live in today./// [Cheers are heard from the audience] Humfree: [not singing] That’s right, isn’t it? Arokne: Yes, it’s right! Humfree: I thought it was 18 kps? Arokne: Well [wiggles her hand]... only about 25% out. But we do live in the galaxy. Humfree: Ok, thank you. [Piano music resumes.] //The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding//\\ //In all of the directions it can whizz//\\ //As fast as it can go, the speed of light, you know,//\\ //8 thousand metres a day and that's the fastest speed there is.//\\ Arokne, in disbelief: Hang on. 8 kilometres a //day?//. Humfree: Was it by the second? Arokne: The speed of light is thirty thousand kilometres per second. Not 8 thousand metres a day. That’s so… insanely slow. Is that what it actually says in the lyrics? Humfree: [points to Bookend] He’s a musician, he doesn’t know how the fuck it works. What would you like me to say? Arokne: Well, three hundre– the speed of light. Humfree: Which is? Arokne: Three hundred thousand kilometres a second. Humfree: [Looking over at Bookend] //Three hundred thousand kilometres a second, which is as fast as it can go.// //So re//– Where are we? Bookend: Verse 2 Humfree: What is that? [Unintelligible conversation, as audience laughs and Arokne picks up a songbook that fell off the keyboard stand] Arokne: [reading the back] It says here it has complete instructions on how to play the piano at the end. Humfree: //The station and you and me and all the stars that we can see Are moving at// [here he cuts off, and jams the microphone in front of Arokne’s mouth] Arokne: Well it depends on what star and– Humfree: //Very very fast every fucking day! As fast as it can go, the speed of light you know//– Arokne: It- It can go faster than that. So if you can build a ring of negative mass matter large enough, it can theoretically warp spacetime, meaning you create a sort of bubble you can… [The music plays over the top of Arokne’s speech, as she continues to talk, as Humfree looks disgruntled.] … but the difficulty of this is, you need an awful lot of energy to make the amount needed to accelerate anything larger than a few grams, so for all intents and purposes, currently that’s true. Sorry, carry on. I just want to have a look at what the Galaxy Song says about the speed of light. [Arokne continues to thumb through the music book.] Humfree: Come on, let’s go to the last verse, shall we, before she gets to the end of the book. //The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding//\\ //In all of the directions it can whizz//\\ Oh we’ve done this bit, haven’t we. //As fast as it can go, the speed of light, you know,//\\ [To Bookend] What’s the last verse? Arokne: No, I’ve got it here, here. That is the last verse. Humfree: Yeah? Arokne: Where’s the speed of light? [Humfree crosses his arms] The- The reason you couldn’t remember the lyric is cause it’s not in here.Look! There’s no statement of the speed of light in the lyric! Who wrote this? Humfree: No, there. “//300 million kilometres a second, that’s the fastest speed there is//”. Arokne: [sounding a little surprised] That’s right! [Humfree raises his arm in the air in triumph] There’s a difference between 3x10^8 metres a second, and 8 kilometres a day, you know?! Humfree: I liked the part where you said “That’s right”. Three hundred billion metres a second? Arokne: It’s a factor of a hundred million out! Humfree: Not in the book! Arokne: No- Humfree: Stop complaining and we’ll finish the song. Together: //So remember, when we’re in such an enormous galaxy,//\\ //Drawn from our three planetary nations,//\\ //We pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space,//\\ //'Cause there's bugger all here on the Station!//\\ [Camera feed cuts out to laughter from the crowd.] playground/playground.txt Last modified: 2025/03/02 19:05by shiny_skies
