But the bright side is that natural processes beyond our control can still be understood and accounted for! E.g., studying earthquakes can help you figure out the warning signs (potentially helping people to get to safety), discover where they're likely to occur, and develop less susceptible architecture. We cannot make the universe care for us, but we can adapt to it and care for each other.
It is the bright side. If there’s no God to help us, then there is also no God to stop us.
@slartibartfastibast: This is like the most common villain origin story ever…
What? That’s not my villain origin story. I’m only trying to “take over the world” because of the dissolution of the NAU - which is a completely valid reason to use an army of robots to prevent the world state from ever existing.
I’m the hero, here, saving you all from enacting a really dumb idea that brings about global tyranny. I only call myself a supervillain because for some reason, everyone keeps getting all offended when I hold the UN hostage. You’d do the same thing if you were in my situation! You just don’t have a half-machine body and memories of the future!
