The fiction part would kind of keep me from doing that. And I fully believe that everything that actually is possible is already being worked on as quickly as possible.
So, maybe just pay for a whole lot of renewable energy plants all around the globe. Buy up all fossil fuel plants, demolish them and put in renewables instead.
Or fund a fully open smartphone with modular components like a PC with good specs and an optional keyboard.
That’s either very optimistic about our level of knowledge about the universe, or a purely semantic thing where you count the precursor technology of another technology that would eventually be the major breakthrough as “already being worked on”…
Oh, I know. I'd start up a Dyson swarm to beam sunlight directly to my power plants. That should be possible.
Space based receivers right? Because otherwise that can go badly pretty quickly
Well, for space based receivers we'd have to figure out wireless power transfer.
Now I'm reminded of the microwave plants in Sim City 2000. And now I want to play Sim City 2000.
For the phone, I'd like to point you to Fairphone. I'm not sure specs are the best, and I don't know about keyboard modules but other than that, it's pretty much there.
