gollark: Also, they would take infinite time and materials to build, and light lag between bits of the computer would be a problem.
gollark: Do you want the extra space to have things in it or not have things?
gollark: Hmm, good idea. What sort of features do you want?
gollark: This is why computer scientists should focus their efforts on building an infinitely fast computer.
gollark: All the fun stuff is.
