Even USPTO is no longer so completely dumb as to grant perpetual motion
machine patents any more. Though it doesn't stop them granting new
patents for blindingly obvious and prior art invalidated software. They
will still grant a patent on almost anything if your money is the right
colour.

Like living in a universe where it is possible to build one? I suspect
you will find that it is an even more non-trivial undertaking to create
a new universe.
