3 of us have adaptive immortality, so eventually we would either start an evolutionary arms race against the nanobots, or we would start being able to reprogram them
and also you’d have to do something horribly wrong to consume the entire planet with them
esp since they’d melt in contact with the mantle, unless they have a way to turn heat into electricity

They could still consume the whole surface/crust probably…

…ok, most of the crust then.

Are you sure you don’t want to ensure anyhow else you kill that thing without it escaping away?

Wasn’t the computer box destroyed after the attack?

realistically, unless the thing that expanded the inside didn’t increase the thermal mass at all(which it most definitely should have), it would at most be scorched and dented, not destroyed, due to the energy it takes to change steel into a phase that’s malleable enough to break from an explosion that wouldn’t be strong enough to completely vaporize or pulverize our corpses

What if the thing was attacked from outside after being attacked from the inside?
1 Like
thermal mass doesn’t care what side you add heat from, and the thing that expands the insides of stuff creates space and copies matter to fill the space that should be filled(which realistically means it probably has a star powering its matter creation, and that its probably using dark energy and some magical space belgiumery to keep the outside the same size)
and if it was from the outside it would’ve had an even harder time destroying it due to the strength of hundreds of pounds of steel at least being packed into the same space as 2 pounds of steel normally occupies

Oh, I thought if it was attacked from the outside it would be from the inside’s perspective like the attack had more force behind it…

that is the opposite of the case lol
if you compress your body to 1/2 the size(height and width and thickness) your muscles become 4x stronger per unit of surface area, and your mass stays the same, so you feel less pressure/heat from any and all things you could feel because all the force you can apply/have applied to you is concentrated to 1/4 the area, which for things that aren’t you, means only being able to apply 1/4 the force to you

I suppose the boxes magic prevents this from killing you for example?

it likely shrinks things that go in without affecting their mass, so an explosion from the outside wouldn’t be able to kill those inside easily
i didn’t die tho cause i was in my mindspace
