I am seriously thinking of commissioning a simple tungsten cube emblazoned with cuneiform style figures, set up on a stainless steel platform. For the legacy. For someone millions of years from now.

Maybe, but in a good way. Do it!

For bonus points shoot it into deep space. Maybe some alien civilization will run into it trillions of years from now.

It sounds like an interesting project, actually. So, no, I don't think you are.

Use copper, or it could have been brass (I don’t remember) this thing resists everything and lasts longer - and it’s even cheaper

You wouldn't be the first! If you do do it, then you should make a video for us here on Lemmy ❀️
