It's a planck length converted into a planckton. Its like converting a Yoctometre into a Yoctoton.

A planckton is actually a measurement of how adept someone is at stealing secret recipes.

I don't see why they'd have a reason to do so. This thread was pretty much made for a mad bance lighthearted shitposting. Unless somebody fetches them in the event of some genuine flaming fecking snitches, I don't see why they would care

Well, there is a fine line between 'lighthearted shitposting' and picspam galore. The mods don't take too kindly to the latter, I'm afraid.

I can understand that being the case in a F7 or open discussion thread, but not here.

We're talking about energies dealt with only in the narrow context of the big bang, levels at which shit does weird shit. What kind of effect a bomb of that magnitude would have evades me.

It would probably form into a blackhole or something. Or create a super massive wormhole. Or create the second coming of Christ. We can't know, as nothing in the natural universe exists like that.

Well, the energy would convert to mass at that point, but so much mass in such a relatively small area would instantly form a black hole with a mass close to that of the observable universe. The event horizon would expand outwards at the speed of light until it consumed most of the Hubble Volume.

Of course, it's entirely possible that physics would pull a Mary Poppins and it would explode anyway, and thus there would be a second big bang* within the universe, causing a rapidly expanding universe, again, within a universe. That's probably as bad for the existing universe as it sounds like it would be.

*Of course, the actual Big Bang wasn't a violent explosion, like its TNT equivalent would be. The violent type is what we're dealing with, so physics might pull a double Mary Poppins and something entirely different might happen. Nobody knows, and nobody will know for thousands of years, if ever.

If the massive black hole that it would probably create were to be spinning, it would basically be a wormhole, since it would allow transit. It could also signal some post-Eldritch race of hypergods that weird shit was going down, and one would visit. Since each lowly citizen in this race would have to be at least as powerful as the Abrahamic God in order for the race to be post-Eldritch, it might as well be the Second Coming.

Careful there, you're beginning to move from moderately well-establish theories to more idealistic hypotheses.

You yourself said there's no way for us to know, but yeah. I know. I was just saying that everything Allancia said, even if the Second Coming bit was jokingly, was possible when detonating universe-creating/destroying/neither/both weapons inside universes.

Not as inebriated as I expected. I spent quite a bit of it with my extended family, which was both fun and emotionally painful.

Talking and playing games with refugees at a camp in Berlin.

Then attempted to not die to fireworks on the way back to my hotel at 2:00 AM. Berliners are f***ing crazy on New Years. It's like a warzone in the streets.
