Honestly, perfect place for datacentres. Unlimited water in the pool area, electric sockets are likely live, unlimited space, no noise pollution, just have to put a data cable though the threshold.
I'm pretty sure the backrooms if they were real, they wouldn't be a horror thing, it would be full of people mapping it and living there. there would be a small organised millitia to neutralize dangerous stilllives. Plenty of hydroponic agriculture.
It would be interesting to see cities in the backrooms, where being there is just a normal thing... Nevermind, it already exists, it's called the Toronto Path
i heard that when it was shut down. despite how inhospitable it looked, many didn't want to leave. they liked living in such a tight community. It didn't seem dystopian to them.
We can study it and use it? what if we get multiple server racks and clip them all into each other, triple the compute power on the same space, although cooling would be the limiting factor.
Backrooms (the movie) is based on the backrooms(a collection of of internet fiction written by a lot of people in a shared setting with a shared premise), which was inspired by a lot of things because the concepts behind it were built up by a lot of people. House of Leaves probably had an influence because it’s decently well known but there is no direct relation. I’m sure if you dug through some forums, boards and subreddits you could find someone talking about a direct inspiration for a piece or two, but it’s not really a formalized set of works
He's just worried about the power bill. It costs a lot to heat and light an infinite number of rooms.
Surely several of those infinite rooms contain large nuclear power plants providing at least some of the infinite power required ..
in the lore, the source is unknown but we know that the lights and power grid are designed for indefinite use, in lighting and tile survey
and if theres the null zones, the sun, etc
Open for business as a hotel and make infinite revenue.
Oh I've heard this one. What if it's already full of infinite people and infinitely more arrive?
It's fine unless they have weird names
With infinite lawsuits
also a major fire hazard
Seriously. What happens if you set fire to the backrooms? Or are they just entirely made of material incapable of propagating fire?

Well, there was something similar: Kowloon Walled City
A truly fascinating place.
I guess the backrooms would be quite similar.

When it’s all you know…
I mean, people pine for living under awful dictators, too.
Yes, but the still lifes aren't the only danger. There is still the time warps, instability of walls and flooring with the null zones, the bacteria.
And IMO contact with the backrooms clearly a induces a form of paranoid schizophrenia, as seen by some of Kane's work.
So it would be an inevitable disaster to use the backrooms for any useful purposes.
I'm obviously only going be the movie lore, I have not consumed the entire backroom corpus
Fair enough, it's quite a bit of content to watch through
thats Async's vision ASpace
i think the randomly appearing and disapearing chairs and stuff might mean a datacenter would need a lot of maintenance

Barbarian had a joke with landlord getting excited about such "additional square footage".
I whispered to my friends that Justin Long would have been ecstatic
Didn't watch the movie, huh?
Fuckin landlords when they watch backrooms
Including the magic door annex, rent now comes to $∞.99 per month. Plus tax.
So is Backrooms an adaptation of House of Leaves?
Cause the premise seems very similar, and I'm wondering whether I should bother watching it/recommend HoL to people who liked it.

its baeed on kanes backrooms, not the wiki one
Definitely some major similarities, but HoL has a lot more depth (no pun intended).
no, but its inspired by it
Sounds like a great place to start your own storage facility.
there are yellow suits, I can get lost, there is something else
and null zones connect to different parts of the world, and the DoE and Async are already on it
Borges: infinite number of rooms you say?
