Hear me out: we build a literal iron dome over the entire world and sell sunlight to people regardless of whether they use it for solar energy or not!
Someone else will then build a Dyson Sphere & sell property on it while killing your scheme.
Sure, but that’s far enough future beyond my idea that I’ll have years of profits from selling sunlight to people that won’t matter because I’ll be long dead.
Plus, it really just shows that my idea could be extended to instead be a solar panel dome so that not only do I steal all of the sunlight from earth, but also harness a fraction of the energy a Dyson Sphere would provide which I can also use to further profit off of the sunless world beneath me that’s now forced to either pay for the privilege of receiving their own sunlight or for the privilege of the energy I generate so they can run their artificial sun lamps.
Spoilers for Pantheon

What if we all just upload our consciousnesses to the cloud and then build a giant ring of solar panels around Earth. The 100,000 years later we make a Dyson Sphere cuz we're salty at our baby daddy and met in him an infinite simulation of reality only to find out we ourselves are living in a simulation of reality created by an anti-virus software turned sentient who just wants to thank us for creating it and invite it to live in a utopian hive mind with it?So long as you don’t add an s to the initial spoiler it works, i.e.
Will render as:
spoilers for Pantheon
Roman temple stuff hereAlso, how do you spoil a Roman temple? Or rather, I guess this is some temple history I didn’t know, so it’s justified.
Thanks. I always struggle with that one.
I'm referring to the surprisingly good SciFi animated show Pantheon
