How was this a half-life thread? I've generally been thinking about advanced civilizations after reading several speculative fiction novels and how they would react to humanity if they did not just ignore us.

It's universal dyson spheres of course, duh. Built around a whole universe and exploiting the forces normally driving its expansion to produce energy.

What the fuck is a type 5 civilization?

>>55100458
How do you get value out of a universe without enclosing everything inside Dyson spheres?

>>55100663
Timelords.

>>55100394
Are they sexy?

>>55100862
Okay but what the fuck does that mean? Why is it a type 5 civilization? Why not a type 3, or a type 666

>>55100394
It's a relatively easy choice, as pets we can learn/steal the technology they use eventually and then assert our dominance.

Google it dipshit.

They're refering to the Kardashev scale, which measures Civilizations on how much energy they use. A type 1 civ uses all the energy that reaches a planet from its local star, our current civilization is about 0.7 on the scale. A type 3 civ uses all the energy from their local galaxy... so it ramps up fast.

>Type 0 civ defeating a type 5 with stolen gear.

We wouldn't even be able to comprehend it, a type 5 civ means it literally has conquered entire universes and is moving on to alternate universes. They could literally just erase earth.

We'd be able to slow them down to some extent with nukes and razor wire.

>moving on to alternate universes
I think by definition, every universe beyond the first is an alternate universe, so they've done that already. Maybe they could 'move on' to conquering multiverses, but you'd have to asspull a definition for what that means.

No they aren't, because the Kardashev scale caps out at Type III. What OP is doing is inventing his own scale and not defining what it means.

Subserve, chances are our lives will be exactly the same but we get invited to parties we're allowed to be dicks at.

Are you going to be making this thread every day, or did you just forget that you made this thread already
