>>10903573What if space colonization is beyond the reach of «intelligence»? In an hypothetical scenario in which Humanity as unlimited resources, world peace, cooperation and a strong will to colonize other planets it still might fail because I strongly believe we overrate our capacities as a species. We're just clever monkies playing with sticks, rocks and explosives.
Science is interesting, it's magical and mystical, you can feel God presence in everything. But applied science… technique… It's shit, it's ugly, it's unreliable, a pile of hacks. It's bad craft and clever tricks. It's so bad it can't adapt to the world, we have to adapt to it to make it works. We have to create regulations, laws and we must agree on protocols or else nothing can hold, nothing can work. It's oppressive. Our hands are clumsy and so is our brains. The most sophisticated gadget on this planet is just a sum of clumsy shit and stupid hacks. Your best machine are just a bunch of NAND gates glued together, LMAO.
We're so bad at engineering, so bad. We're stile cavemen sharpening pointy sticks. You say:«Hug Hug, Grug gonna make pointy sticks». And Grug start making the stick, then he stop and check with his finger to see if the pointy is pointy enough… It's not, he sharp it up some more… Fucking pathetic.
To colonize space you must be able to make the pointy pointy on first try, from mind to reality. We can't, we're not even intelligent… We're trial-an-errorlligent. This is pathetic. Humanity sucks.
It's impossible to colonize space. Impossible. It's beyond the reach of any lifeforms except the most primitive, those who can survive void and radiation, those who can adapt. But primitive lifeform don't care about space travel, they don't care about space colonisation, they don't even care about anything. They are and that's it.
