I was thinking you could have an AI character play the level and that would reinforce that character's moveset.

but if we keep trying there should be a spacefaring equivalent of Moores law?
what if instead of formula 1 we had races in orbit? this would push the boat out.

Re:Freeing the Web from the Browser
on Monday August 06, 2018 @05:17AM (#17696161)
One way would be to create a browser/portal(combo) that only indexes webgl/wasm apps for example. and you could still visit the info page about that app via a normal browser but would have to install the specific browser.
the irony is that walled garden might have a valid use case (not to wall from a vendor, but to wall us from old tech)

Re:Launch loop
on Friday July 27, 2018 @07:31AM (#17625165)
it would also be possible do this by going around in a circle at 2g (a train?) the train could then drag a capsule and let go at a certain speed.
it might have to be at the poles.
another option would be to build a bridge from south america to west africa, and at 1g you'd reach escape velocity.
