are you

2019-10-12 20:39:16 UTC  

banking on scientists discovering "space magic"?

2019-10-12 20:39:25 UTC  

they can have thousands of years to try

2019-10-12 20:40:01 UTC  

we only have about 100 years left right now potentially

2019-10-12 20:40:20 UTC  

Can't see civilization lasting another 200

2019-10-12 20:40:28 UTC  

as it is currently

2019-10-12 20:40:48 UTC  

ok

2019-10-12 20:41:16 UTC  

"space magic" first of all is unhelpfully vague

2019-10-12 20:41:32 UTC  

like creating matter from energy, proto dyson sphere

2019-10-12 20:41:33 UTC  

second, nuclear fusion and fission are pretty damn close to that already

2019-10-12 20:41:35 UTC  

etc

2019-10-12 20:41:54 UTC  

you want us to make a fucking dyson sphere before nuclear energy? <:lol:583236542580129825>

2019-10-12 20:42:46 UTC  

potentially we can counteract the drawbacks of nuclear energy with extensive research in the meantime

2019-10-12 20:42:58 UTC  

but we are nowhere close to counteracting it now

2019-10-12 20:43:17 UTC  

We have literally zero means to even think about accomplishing that while nuclear is just sitting right out in the damn lawn, ready to be used and developed

2019-10-12 20:43:41 UTC  

dyson sphere, god you have to be trolling...

2019-10-12 20:44:35 UTC  

If you kill the economy you're probably not going to have near the same chances of getting as much innovation or technological advancement

2019-10-12 20:45:40 UTC  

the economy needs to be killed before it kills everyone

2019-10-12 20:45:57 UTC  

economy being killed =/= dyson sphere

2019-10-12 20:46:08 UTC  

retard

2019-10-12 20:46:49 UTC  

the idea that the free market is the primary driver of innovation is a lie

2019-10-12 20:46:54 UTC  

You want to *destroy the economy* while wanting dyson spheres

2019-10-12 20:46:57 UTC  

and a totally false assumption

2019-10-12 20:47:07 UTC  

No but you need it to manufacture the materials necessary

2019-10-12 20:47:19 UTC  

You're worried that the economy is going to kill everyone but you're not worried that killing the economy is going to kill people?

2019-10-12 20:47:24 UTC  

existential threats drive innovation

2019-10-12 20:47:27 UTC  

how else are you going to develop the means to make this shit?

2019-10-12 20:47:27 UTC  

like war

2019-10-12 20:47:50 UTC  

and how did they get all those machines of war? big ass economies.

2019-10-12 20:48:10 UTC  

nationalized economies

2019-10-12 20:48:22 UTC  

or pseudo nationalized in some cases

2019-10-12 20:48:39 UTC  

No, that's just because the military happens to be run by the government

2019-10-12 20:48:54 UTC  

the government should be run by the military

2019-10-12 20:48:57 UTC  

simple as

2019-10-12 20:49:06 UTC  

uh no

2019-10-12 20:49:13 UTC  

LOL

2019-10-12 20:49:18 UTC  

Don't do that

2019-10-12 20:49:26 UTC  

Would mean endless wars

2019-10-12 20:49:41 UTC  

earth needs to be cleaned out first

2019-10-12 20:49:41 UTC  

Yeah
