are you
banking on scientists discovering "space magic"?
they can have thousands of years to try
we only have about 100 years left right now potentially
Can't see civilization lasting another 200
as it is currently
ok
"space magic" first of all is unhelpfully vague
like creating matter from energy, proto dyson sphere
second, nuclear fusion and fission are pretty damn close to that already
etc
you want us to make a fucking dyson sphere before nuclear energy? <:lol:583236542580129825>
potentially we can counteract the drawbacks of nuclear energy with extensive research in the meantime
but we are nowhere close to counteracting it now
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
dyson sphere, god you have to be trolling...
If you kill the economy you're probably not going to have near the same chances of getting as much innovation or technological advancement
the economy needs to be killed before it kills everyone
economy being killed =/= dyson sphere
retard
the idea that the free market is the primary driver of innovation is a lie
You want to *destroy the economy* while wanting dyson spheres
and a totally false assumption
No but you need it to manufacture the materials necessary
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?
existential threats drive innovation
how else are you going to develop the means to make this shit?
like war
and how did they get all those machines of war? big ass economies.
nationalized economies
or pseudo nationalized in some cases
No, that's just because the military happens to be run by the government
the government should be run by the military
simple as
uh no
LOL
Don't do that
Would mean endless wars
earth needs to be cleaned out first
Yeah
