Advancing to the point of intergalactic travel and never finding intelligent life or making contact and being enslaved for millions of years?

Enslavement isn't economically viable, at worst you would be destroyed which isn't practical if you have already spread around the galaxy.

Enslavement, how ever unlikely that is.

At least an empty galaxy gives humanity room to spread out. Every flavor of crazy can have its own world to settle. Humans will evolve over the eons. Then we can be our own aliens.

sup /x/,
slavery is a less profitable economic model than performance based incentives. slavery requires layers of management, performance based incentive systems are self starters.

You dumbo, nothing is scary about an never alive galaxy. It would be different if you found ruins on a couple planets, then you can construct implications.

ftl travel is impossible so even if aliens exist (99.9% chance they dont) we will never ever meet them

there's different types of life; parasitic, symbiosis, or predation for instance
if the aliens are predators, we are fucked
if the aliens are so advanced that they completely ignore us, we're fucked too
do you care about ants? hell no
do humans think they're superior and justify killing animals for their own survival? obviously
all we have to do is keep progressing
and hope that with technical progress comes wisdom intrinsically

we don't know for sure, you don't know what science will say in 5 millions years, but yes

Impossible according to our current understandin of the universe. 250 years ago we thought plain flying was impossible. 500 years ago mechanical locomotion was undreamt of.
Who can say what we figure out in the next 500 years?

this is too short sighted; you'd have to ask would bacterias think about the concept of an operating system and computers made from sand and other materials?
this is the kind of evolution we're looking for regarding our understanding of physics
compared to us in 200 millions years, we're bacteria
basically anything we say are meaningless, the concepts of physics and movement speed could just be retarded interpretation of the true behaviour of nature, but most people wouldn't acknowledge that, because of how primitive we are

This, even if we are alone within a million years there will be a fuckload of different intelligent species around the universe.

Or

FTL technology is more than doable but our brains have evolved wrong and so no matter how much our brains have improved we'll forever be the internet galactic equivlant of the hunter gather Pygmy.
