Repurpose a Dystopia Challenge.
The Repurpose a Dystopia Challenge (RADC) is a reality television program in which contestants repurpose dystopias (generally making them better).

Dear Diary (Death Star edition), the inspiration for Repurpose a Dystopia Challenge.
Amateur gnomon algorithm theorist Karl Jones posited a repurposed Death Star in response to a challenge on Facebook on July 7, 2020. (See Dear Diary (Death Star edition).)
Jones made several fundamental mistakes in his gnomonic algebra. However, his mistakes not only cancelled each other out (more or less) — they also triggered the emergence of a small but forceful class of previously unknown transdimensional algorithms. These algorithms today make up about 97% of the RADC's computational complexity, with the remainder provided by a grant from APTO.
