I want to see what kind of video games grow on trees.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

The games get more complex as the tree does. It grows one game at a time and the bigger the "better" the game gets. So it starts making like Pong but then progresses through NES then SNES titles. Then after a while its growing with modern AAA titles.

So you're saying I need to prune it before it starts making COD.

Bourgeoisie. I mean it's impossible for tree to grow humans but this shouldn't make us stop with the first part of that experiment.

What if i bury myself alive until the tree sprouts? Get some breathing tubes and such.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Clone tree

Though as the tree's "seed", you would have to remain there forever to keep giving it life

Do we need to stick to the laws of physics, or can we get magic involved?

is the speedy tree growth a property of the soil, location, or of whatever we plant in there? if i plant a fruit do i get a tree that gives out instant growth seed versions of that fruit?

because if so i'd like to patent 1 day growth date seeds.

diamonds, so i can disprove the labor theory of value like a boss, epic style
