Genuine No-Prize for brainlet confused into hysterics by simplistic reasoning.

OP, I wouldn't conflate lack of meaning (of human life) with lack of truth. Those are two different realms with different arguments.

Yes, while it is a logical conclusion that there must be some outside point at which all knowledge is known, that does not make our lack of ability to access this omniscience any less significant. Nihilism usually pairs nicely with the recognition of your sheer limitations as a being that constructs its reality largely on empirical evidence, and the concomitant sense of meaninglessness that usually follows. While alienating, it is also a warm blanket of helplessness we can use to comfort us in times of woe: since any sentience that has access to omniscience would have to exist outside of time, and it could only communicate to us through means bound by time, there is literally no way in this dimension that we could ever really know the consequences of any choice well enough to be able to reason our way toward whatever we think we want - much less ever really know what we want in the long-run! You do the best with what ya got, and then just let everything else just... slide.
