This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'll take my free cruise ship now please. According to the story it should be no trouble to dry dock it indefinitely and construct an entire building around it!

And keeping it cool enough for human comfort would be super cheap too!

If the dome wall is well insulated and has a white or reflective surface, it may not be as challenging as you'd think. The other way to achieve good low-energy cooling is to build underground if the terrain, hydrological and geological conditions are right. It costs money to dig but that's a one-time cost.
