[Rick and Morty] Our microverse has Goobleboxes

Within our universe things have the appearance of consuming electricity, but it would be such a small percentage of whatever the battery is powering as not to matter. A microverse may work on a different set of principles in order to supply the next level with greater power while still allowing the inhabitants to use some of that energy.

Ours would need to be a less contrived and more easily hidden aspect of our society than everyone standing on 80's exercise equipment everyday for two hours, considering a man of Rick's intellect has yet to grasp the greater implication of his own invention (or at least he has not revealed this suspicion, if he holds it).

We can't all be standing around cranking google levers all day, or somebody would indent something better. Instead they load up a semi-modern civilization and put our workstation right at our fingertips, in a form that we even enjoy using. Keeps us quiet and content, and keeps that car's engine running smooth.

Anyway, I had fun thinking about it.
