Yeah, but it would probably be way faster than that if only 8 people were using that network at a time!

Reply to comment by Jufilup in [WP] The intricacies of time travel can be baffling and often frustrating, as they are at this moment: you're being arrested by temporal police for a crime you've not yet committed, though there are *rules* against this... by [deleted]
Well, ignoring parts of the prompt is allowed in the sub rules yes, but that doesn't mean someone who wanted to read a story about time travel isn't going to downvote you just because of that, unfortunately. I'm not sure a disclaimer will do much good against that.

Electrolysis. Not a very crazy machine, but also not very efficient though.

I have one and I can tell you it's slightly smaller in diameter and slightly thicker than a loonie. But it's still very similar, I got it from being handed change somewhere and didn't realize until way later, I guess the cashier didn't either!
(The color is also quite different, but I'm not sure if that's just because mine is dirty.)

Does that necessarily imply colonization, though? We might just send robots to mine things. Sure, there's minutes of delay because those pesky little photons can't be whipped into going any faster, but we can automate a lot of it and it's not like the task involves particularly quick reaction times, seeing as the mineral isn't going anywhere.
And with an remote-controlled miner, you don't have to worry about all the extra dead weight of the hairless monkeys and their habitat and food and water and needing to bring them back before their bones rot from too little gravity.
