What physical embodiments of portals between worlds have been imagined in sci-fi/fantasy? My starter list:
Rabbit hole (Alice)
Subtle knife (dark materials)
Wardrobe (Narnia)
Phone booth (Doctor Who)
Platform 9 3/4 (Potter)
Wormhole with gate (Stargate)

Dirk Gently has a weird mechanism where Thor turns his hammer by a tiny angle or something
HHG has a bunch of half-assed ones

What’s the one where there’s teleportation devices even in people’s houses so they have rooms on multiple planets but it turns out when they teleport they die and the AIs are using their dying thoughts to power themselves?

No, not Thor - Dirk has to learn to turn his head by a fraction of a molecular width or something silly & poetic like that.

He also has psychic navigation, essential quality finding ones way thro the world today
