One of my favs.

What if there are no relativistic bombs yet? What if we choose to remain here out of fear, and then another species gets there when we could've wiped them out?

Shitty ending.

Highly Paranormal Janitor is a fun read. Lots of stuff in here but his posts are in the classification folder.

real talk, humanity doesn't stand a chance in the big leagues of space.

I think we are going to invent a race of sentient machines and they are going to be the ones heading off into space.

ye shitty ending but the premise is true enough.

Man is the maddest creature of all

It's true, as edgy as it sounds.

All other primates and animals crave boredom and silence, but man will actively risk his life just to avoid it

relativity makes me angry because i cannot understand it

>>17881200
I miss HPJ...

>>17881231
It didn't really do or demonstrate anything to prove the point, though. Even if it had, it would've just come off as "Muh edgy man is an animal"

What's so hard to understand?

Light (information) takes time to travel.

Nothing can go faster than light.

Thus, when two things are moving if the speeds are vastly different the information seen by either thing or a third observer will differ because it takes different amounts of time for the light (information) to reach them.

You can imagine the same thing happening with sound.

Yeah, it's a cool premise, but I might have preferred if "something is wrong with humanity" was left as an implication rather than attempting to spell it out.
