jump to expanded postokay so imagine you work for idk DHL or FedEx or whatever. you also just discovered a way to open multiple portals to hell. how far can you optimise down delivery times using this
‪some say that this has already happened but they realised they can make more money by using the hellfire to attack their competitors rather than to beat them‬
@hikari I'd guess DHL would be more known for running power plants. Pump water into hell, get steam out, pipe that into a turbine 🤔
I guess depends how hellfire works. If hell is insulated well enough there doesn't actually need to be that much energy output to keep it warm…
@hikari my guess would be… not much, and that the main bottleneck is actually sorting packages, and not transporting them between cities.
disclaimer: used to do sysadmin stuff at local (this country: .pl) DPD branch around 10 years ago; opening new sorting facilities, and optimization in their operations, was always celebrated
@hikari how many portals can you open and is there per portal overhead?
customers would probably react negatively to one appearing on their lawn, so even with unlimited portals, you could only helleport as far as the local distro centers
@hikari it turns out that hell is compressed relative to our world, so if you open a portal in each of your hubs in our world and build a highway between them in hell, you move between hubs 8 times as fast
@hikari@social.noyu.me there are no regulations for what you can do in hell (at least none that apply to earthbound companies) so if you just want to minimize delivery times you can get straight line connections between hub points and move packages with the fastest means of transport you have. So open a portal in each distribution hub, find hubs in hell that optimally connect then, and run high speed rail or jet lines or something
