      I used to be bothered by the finity of life, but I'm not too worried any more. I feel okay with my own mortality and I quite like that there'll be no more wars one day, even though there'll also be no more music. Let's enjoy the ride and be decent.

    • @Molybdaenmornell
      @Molybdaenmornell 3 года назад +11

      ​@@Jeffy-331 I will start by saying that I, too, have a positive outlook on life. Having said that, I see about 5 bugs and can only envision the defeat of one of them:
      1.) biological aging -- possibly fixable
      2.) Lethal accidents and diseases. There's no such thing as safety and the longer you live the higher the cumulative chance of dying violently or of sickness, even without aging. As the duration of life approaches infinity, violent accidents become a virtual certainty, no matter how unlikely they are in a given period of time.
      3.) Food scarcity. If people keep being born and no-one dies of old age or accident, people will eventually die due to food scarcity. This is true even if we colonise space, because population would rise exponentially but the amount of space available only increases polynomially with time for any given speed of exploration.
      4.) Death of the sun. Nothing we can do about that except flee the solar system, but the same will happen in any other one.
      5.) Heat death of the universe.
      I will not rule out that there is an afterlife in a form not subject to laws of physics, but I have no reason to believe that there is any life after my death except that of other people. And that is something, isn't it? Love others, love future generations, and death ceases to be as much of a tragedy. And by the time they cease to exist for the above reasons, we won't be around to be bothered.

Death is beautiful in its own ways and we need to live our life in a way that nobody on earth is living a life not worth living. I used to think like you as well, but thinking more about it you start understanding, and the constellation of life starts forming, the beauty of life would never exist without the harsh truth of death. After all, we are just a small dot in all of existence and we will never know if more life lurks around there, life is beautiful because it is limited weather god exists or not (probably not).

      @condor5912 Год назад +12

      Well, it depends.
      The expansion of the Universe doesn’t really affect galaxies themselves(because I believe Kurzgesagt was talking about nearby stars), because they are held together by a gravitational force, which we believe is caused my dark energy or dark matter.
      In exchange, stars are close. The quickest way to get to Alpha Centauri would be through sails powered by ground-based laser propulsion, reaching Proxima b in around 20 years. This is so short, in the universal timescale, that we might have expanded beyond the Orion spur in a few thousand years.
      But, if you’re talking about stars in other galaxies, even travelling at the speed of light, it would take you billions of years to reach Andromeda, because of the expansion of the Universe.

      Well... Extrapolating that far ahead we wouldn't even be human anymore. But you're right, assuming we made it THAT far (which is really hard to imagine!) and became a Type IV Civilization... I guess we could do a lot of things. Tunnel to another Universe... Perhaps even create our own bubble Universe... And yes, transmute dead degenerate matter in black dwarfs back into hydrogen to kick off new star formation...
      As Type IV... We could practically do anything! But we currently got our work cut out for us... Stuck at Type 0.7x (or thereabouts) we are dangerously close to a threshold which will either transition us to Type I or... Type 0 (I.e. Extinction!)

As more people exist on Earth, more kinds of music from more sources will give way to much more variety and, inherently, more good music. Anyone who thinks that the popular Top 40 that people get the most shared exposure to is representative of the overall quality of all music being produced at that time is a fucking nostalgia-plagued dumbass.

      The problem with hawking radiation as an energy source is that only very small black holes emit it fast enough to be useful, and the smaller they are the faster they decay, so it's not a great long term solution. But it'd still make a great video.

    Question: Would tidally locked planets have tremendous windstorms on the day side as the atmosphere moves around the planet? And wouldn't the middle parts where life could possibly exist, wouldn't those areas be gigantic thunderstorms all the time because of the constant influx of blazing hot air meeting the colder air?

    This video had a *better* plot than the Star Wars Prequels
    In A Nuthsell: The Last Dwarf

      Matter is basically energy, so it's more accurate to say that energy can't be created or destroyed. A tiny amount of matter is turned into energy in some nuclear explosions, for example. Matter can't be created or destroyed through ordinary chemical means.

      When all the stars become black dwarves apart from 1, the world needs to get in a time machine and move to a new hospital planet.

      Dr.StickFigure ...Or die off like everything else. Why does the human race need to thrive? The earth is in a terrible state at the moment because of humans and we have wars just because of religion. And why would it matter to you or anyone here presently, everyone on this earth at this moment will be dead before 2100. Why live at all if anything we do might be forgotten in the future unless it is something momentous. Our purpose is to create a generation that is more advance and better then the ones before for the sake of the human race, in which we will still have opposing opinions resulting in war and extinction. Nothing we do matter and the earth will die off with time, humans are only bacteria in this space we call the universe.
