and?
>>16860781Not if we time travel to the past and then bring the past into the future so the future becomes the past
good.
>>16860785We only have billions of years to deal with this so unless we start now, humanity won't survive.
There's certain type of people who attach their life to infinitely distant events. For them somehow is very important, will the Universe die through thermal death, will the Milky Way collapse into one big black hole, when will the Sun consume Earth etc. Like if the Universe dies, then everything they did in their life has no meaning.>NOOO I WANT MY TRACES TO REMAIN PLEASE NOOOO
>>16860993It’s truly the highest honor, isn’t it? To be remembered? Pity for you.
All your fault. You asked for it.
>>16861034I'd much rather retain my right to be forgotten
Naah we live in a black hole.
>>16860781>the universe will end in iceYeah we knew this already
>>16860890The solution is obviously mass immigration of indians.
>>16861034The highest honor in life is having children and raising them to have children of their own. It doesn't matter if retarded normies remember you. Your genes remember you forever.
>>16860781and we are only on the 3rd generation of stars. this is why extraterrestrial life is so scarce, the universe just doesn't last long enough to have a good chance at creating life
The value of our existence is directly proportional to the number and intenstity of the orgasms achieved in our lifetime.Anything else is irrelevant.
>>16861073>Your genesAfter 8 or so generations your descendents are indistinguishable from the descendents of anyone else.
>>16860781Peak Star, and so soon.How long has Big Solar known?I'm glad we kept some coal and a few whales around for when it gets dark.
>>16860823This. If we go back far enough we could get a mating pair of massive young Gen 1 stars. Repeat ad infinitum.
>from now onHow does it work when observing something billions light years away means it happened billions years ago?
>>16860781>>16861056Came here to post this.Clearly this means we have no choice but to establish a global authoritarian technocracy. This catastrophic news PROVES the importance of dismantling agriculture and energy while smearing the degenerate hordes across america and europe.The only hope for humanity is to lie flat forever! (Except for my family of course, we will dance in the palaces and eat steak)
>>16860890Is that you e man ... rocket man!!!
>>16861073>The highest honorMaybe if you're a massive narcissist
>>16860781>guys trust us, this one single observation proves us right!>oh also you should stop believing in god too!
>>16861115According to this table we have about 22 billion years until the big rip.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_far_future#Earth,_the_Solar_System,_and_the_universeIf that doesn't happen though then we might exist quite a while longer but would likely have to move around to different planets. After 100 billion years all the galaxies around us will have floated away beyond where we can see. Then after 100 trillion years stars will stop forming. Then at 1 quadrillion years stars won't have planets any more because they'll all be flung off into space. Maybe we could survive past that if we start living in spaceships or something
Heat death confirmation
>>16860890We are already here. You only need to worry about surviving if you still haven't figured it out yet. You will though, no matter how much you might be fighting it now. Confusion always gets tiring eventually no matter how much fun it might be. But knowing is effortless.
>>16861053You've got it.
>>16861034Why would you be worried about people remembering a you that can't remember itself? Are you afraid they will not be able to be good or happy themselves without the memory of you? Or does the memory of you matter more to you than their happiness and freedom to remember themselves?
>>16861073people who think like this are pretty awful I mean I'm awesome but most people having kids are fat cunts
>>16861120well i guess i've done alright for myself kek
>>16861313Yeah. People who think more highly of others than themselves are just the worst, aren't they?
>>16861054You need to go back to your own system, hijacker!!!
>>16861034Gosh, you derailed the whole discussion. My premise wasn't about honor being bad, but being too anxious about very distant events is stupid
According to the latest Kurszgesagt video, all the cosmological theories on the structure and evolution of the universe are falling apart.For example there is no telling that the universe will continue an accelerating expansion, given that there is no evidence that dark energy is a static constant.So for all we know, the universe, or at least our observable corner of it may eventually start collapsing in on itself back into a singularity.
>>16860781Thats a challenge to humanity. To keep the light of the universe alive
>>16860785so?
We need not just global warming, a universal warming.
>>16861647Our universe (the "Big Bang universe") is just a tiny spec of dust in an infinite universe (some call it multiverse but I dislike the term).Basically when entropy gets too high in an area, AKA "the heat death" of the universe, a Big Bang spontaneously happens and seeds stars.Our challenge to survive, would be to manage to switch universes before that happens.
>>16861034The oldest human who is known in the modern age was an accountant from 5000 years ago. He was basically a nobody. A cog in the Sumerian trading system. That he is remembered while the great leaders, warriors, and artists of the time are forgotten shows just how capricious "fame" can be.The next oldest are the slave owner, Gal-Sal, and his two slaves, a man named En-pap X and a woman named Sukkalgir.
>>16861647Might make for a good scifi show.
>>16861733>Our challenge to survive, would be to manage to switch universes before that happens.That's hundreds of trillions of years away innit? I don't know about you but I'm going to bed before then.
>>16860781No one in this thread conviced me that incubating a kid and going through labor is worth it.They will die, the grandkids too, and so on.Even if my lineage reproduces till the end of time and is one of the last humans alive, they'll still be fucked.You're all coping that someone will find a solution for this. But what if they don't. Right now we don't stand a chance, why bother with anything?I've been disciplined all my life and it turns out hedonists were right all along.
