For me it could be worth five hundred quadrillion already, these numbers have entered the realm of fantasy.
TeamAssimilation
Just needs one steel scrap, a spring, two screws, one vegetable starch-derived adhesive, and you got a swift long-barrel automatic pipe gun!
It almost feels like cheating!
When you eat one too many deathclaw steaks.
And the orange menace goes for a second Peace Nobel Prize chance!
Did he say ‘ceasefire’? He meant ‘restocking’.
Pain and pleasure are the greatest survival teachers, I’d expect them to be the basest feelings a living thing can have.
Saying some creatures don’t feel pain just because their physiology is different is like how we were taught that animals couldn’t think back in the 20th century.
Fuck it, just valuate tech companies with quadrillions, or even quintillions. Why not? We’re already in the realm of fantasy.
Don’t speak that way of The Orville
One light year is 9.4607379e+15 meters, so there’s a power of 10 that could give us a unit of length close to 94 cm. That would not be as arbitrary.
But fuck me if we discover the speed of light in a vacuum has not been constant along the history of the universe, the c would be an awful base for cosmic distance, or very long term science.
But don’t worry, humanity doesn’t look like it will exist long enough to do very long term science.
Holy cow, it’s a 70s franchise, but I misremembered, even though I watched dubs in the 80s! Technically it’s a 60s franchise because it was born in 1969.
The real question is: would they be allowed to do the same these days?
Spoiler: they won’t.
