There's also a naturalistic solution involving the frequency of gamma ray bursts in the habitable region of our galaxy until about 5-4 billion years ago.

I'll see if I can find the paper.

And if there were a ton of matrioshka brains everywhere we'd see a lot more infrared-radio sources.

"Thirty years ago, we had apocalyptic weapons pointed at each other because of political disagreements."

Little to do with the subject, but that line gave me chills.
Can't say I took much from this video other than my misanthropy growing that much more intense.

Maybe when God created us and we fucked up so badly, he figured he shouldn't create another species with free will, lest they fuck up in the same way.

This must be the 5 time i have seen this video. The earlier times were with my brother watching it repeatedly over the course of a few days.
