Rules:
*You can teleport into and out of it at will
*It has a couple of plug sockets and can connect to internet from the region you teleported in from
*You can take objects and people with you
*As already stated, it is (3m)^3 (3m*3m*3m). The walls are plain plaster with a light in the middle of the ceiling. The pocket dimension is topologically toroidal, so if there weren’t walls and a ceiling/floor (which you can actually destroy) you would loop if you went more than 3m in any direction. Gravity, then, is artificial and can be altered to anywhere from 0 to 2g from a dial on the wall.
Edit: additional specifications
*You can only teleport out to where you teleported in from.
*Time proceeds at the same rate inside the pocket dimension
*There is an eject button for those inside to get out if something happens to you

The archivist inside of me thinks it’s a good idea to make this the control room of the beIN headquarters, because I know a television channel of theirs that has a hell of a lot of lost media. I think Al Jazeera slapped their name on this channel (but it’s not related to journalism, I promise) back when they used to own it, and they made a lot of great shows (and had great branding), but there’s very few archives of what they actually made.
So, in a way or another, I’d be the one responsible for leaking their assets.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeem_TV?wprov=sfla1 is what I mean by that television channel I’m talking about.
That’s perfect for drug smuggling
2g weight room. I would train some rabbits to pull weights. Then take my rabbit beasts out after 6 months and have them pull me around town in a sled.
Slow down there Radagast.
Can an object be on both sides of the portal at once? Like if I ran a cable from the inside to the outside. I’m trying to work out how to handle water and sewage, because like everyone else I’ve concluded this is obviously a living space.
I would ask writers Game masters and gamers to use the item in their stories/games and see what uses they come up with i would never thought of on my own
Whike waiting for that to come to fruition ide look for a passable look a like to team up with.
Then i would figure out how the teleporting works. If it maintains speed/velocity/vector/momentum
test if i could jump from really high, pop into my pocket dimension just before hitting the ground cancelling out the speed i was falling when i pop out of the pocket dimension
If i cant then i would make use of the toroidal effect when popping in there after clearing the walls floor and ceiling. Longest free fall ever.
That record is now mine felix baumgartner!
If i can ill beat felix baumgartners records
Some ideas:
- A fast way to dig holes, if ‘soil’ or ‘stone’ is an object.
- Annoy physics teachers – move in and out to drive a piston. Perpetual motion!
- Moving day is easy.
- Server farm.
- Safe house.
- Is momentum conserved? Not sure how general relativity would work. Win a Nobel Prize.
- Building stuff in space just got a lot easier and safer. 27 cubic meters of free payload!
Ooooh! A little home datacenter in the edge of a room. Sounds fun :o
Oh in my mind a 3m x 3m room is huge (I live in Asia). A 3m cubed room would be the largest room in my house. My house is only 2.3m wide, the biggest room is like 2.5m x 2.3m!
My concern with this is they said nothing about the exchange of air or heat in this space. Such a small space would get very warm pretty quickly and with it not touching anything it would retain the heat. The air would also not exchange unless you manually did it making it eventually suffocate you.
Well if that’s the case, is it even oxygenated in the first place? Even if it is, if there is no venting you would eventually either deplete oxygen or saturate with C02.
They said you could bring things in so I suppose you could bring the air with you.
After a quick googling it looks like the average person breathes 20-30 cubic meters of air a day.
But a server wouldn’t care about oxygen in the air just the heat.
I think I’d probably pack a bed, TV, microwave, and mini fridge into it and go travel and see a bunch of the world without worrying about lodging. I could also use it at work to eliminate my commute and save myself the high rent of living in Northern Virginia lol.
This isn’t allowed according to OP. To paraphrase “you can teleport back to where you teleported in”
Don’t see how his use would violate that?
Think of it like a portable hotel room with no bathroom. You can travel wherever while outside the room and when it’s time to turn in you just use the room.
He’s also saying that he would not need to commute as in his home is close to work without having to worry about the high rent in the area where his work is.
Ah that makes sense now. Appreciate you adding the much needed clarity for me.
Think thats what they meant. Just use it as there home. At work then teleport to there space then back to work. When traveling the normal way just use it for sleeping. Basicly taking your home with you.
Ah that makes sense now. Appreciate you adding the much needed clarity for me.
❤️
Same! I would also cram a small server and ton of tools into it so i would have a portable hackerspace.
My feeble American brain can’t comphrened the concept of safe, free, private housing.

Why do that when my bed is so much more comfortable?
deleted by creator
And you can masturbate without annoying the coworkers who never seem to leave their workplace.
A) it’s not always safe to sleep outside when travelling
B) it’s not always legal to sleep where you are
So by taking your own bed in the pocket dimension, you’ll always have a safe, comfortable and legal place to stay without any cost
deleted by creator
Good for you. I have too… That doesn’t mean it’s safe or legal everywhere and doesn’t give any reason why turning it into a portable bedroom is a bad idea

Three cubic meters, or a cube with three metre sides?
I edited the post text - the latter
So, 27 m³
Or (3m)^3
7133 gallons
How much is that in bees?
Yes
About 27 bees, assuming we’re talking the new spring of 2024 giant bees
Water? I want a personal bathroom.
No, sorry. I mean, you can bring in a tank of water if you want, or even make the whole pakve underwater, but there’s no plumbing.
Mini portals for electricity and internet but not water and sewage? Cheapskate!
only $1500/mo!
I would steal so many things
I would get a metal rod of four meters, and teleport into the pocket universe to see what happened.
it’s set down diagonally so it fits
And even if OP had said 10, the obvious thing is for it just not to work. Either teleportation fails or the rod is left behind.
If I bring luggage or a person in with me, can I leave them there for a few hours? Would they have a way to get out if something happens to me? (Travel just got easier in my mind)
Edit: also, did you mean 3m x 3m x 3m, or 3m^3, which is 1m x 1m x 3m?
3m3m3m
And time works the same in the pocket dimension, and sure there is an eject button for them to get out if something happens to you
3m^3 is 3m x 3m x 3m. Cubed is a number multiplied by itself 3 times no?
While cubed is a number multiplied by itself three times, here m³ is the units, meters-cubed. So you would have 3 one-meter-cubes.
Ah I see now. Thanks.
First thing I’m gonna do is pop in there with a hammer and a crowbar and figure out how all this shit is wired up and what it’s nailed to. Betcha there’s a whole lot more space there than the realtor knew about.
I told you, if you knock through one wall, you’ll be knocking through the opposite wall. As it’s a toroidal space, they’re the same wall. Same for the ceiling and floor.
Yeah, but ya gotta test it out. And then you can toss a ball to yourself
So where’s the power coming from?
The national grid. Using the same portal to the real world that the Internet connectivity uses.
Power over fiber optic cables?
No, power over electrical cables, internet over mobile data/WiFi, if the place you teleported from has that.
How do the cables enter the toroidal space?
A tiny portal.
The wires run ana and kata from the plug, and so all you see is a junction box with no holes, but even though you can’t see any supports it barely wiggles when you tug on it
Hey, you can’t just make up dimensions.
*There is an eject button for those inside to get out if something happens to you
Well there goes one idea…
*Time proceeds at the same rate inside the pocket dimension
There go a couple more…
I’d go camping. Travel around the world. Become a cleptomaniac. The usual stuff…
Assuming that I can take it wherever, and when I’m in it, no one can see any trace of it…
I would find locations where valuable items would be in the near future. Go to that place, hop in my box, and wait for night fall. Then I would magically materialize in a strange masked bandit costume, rob them blind, and disappear. Then pop out a few days later in different clothes to make my casual exit.
Ideally, I’d go in and out inside a bathroom nearby so it’s less conspicuous.
Thievery and smuggling, perfectly designed for that.
