What is humanities end game?

Lord Starch · October 07, 2015, 06:02:46 PM

The thousands of years of progress won't stop. It's exponential, there is no end in sight, but there must be one eventually. When will we be satisfied?

Isara · October 07, 2015, 06:09:39 PM

Never, unless we blow up.

Azumarill · October 07, 2015, 06:11:16 PM

Build a decent enough plant and it can withhold oxygen, making it fireproof.

Fireproof fern spiders, bitch.

It isn't "most likely" it will happen, unless there are other universes and it is somehow possible to leave this one.

Humans as we know today will be gone in about 10 million years anyway provided we aren't wiped out, as evolution will have rendered us unrecognizable by then.

He's not wrong about evolution though. The longer we survive, the more time we have to change.
