Author of #TenLittleAstronauts and literally hundreds of works of flash fiction. You might also know me for the interactive fantasy parody Girth Loinhammer’s Most Exponential Adventure, or possibly for wiring bananas into someone else’s laptop. (I wear many hats.)
@foone@digipres.club Now this is bugging me too. If you actually wanted to loop a falling object between two portals and forget about it, would it have to be at one of the Earth’s poles? I feel as though otherwise the object would start to drift out from between the two portals due to the Coriolis effect (ignoring the fact that an object left falling like this at the equator would constantly be cancelling out whatever effect it produced 12 hours previously).
