[QUOTE="Vap841, post: 76235671, member: 435200"] One thing that I think about is the possibility that there’s a practical ceiling for technological advancements, and that this ceiling might be much lower than what people like to fantasize about. For a few centuries we’ve been enjoying a steep slope of technological advancements, but is it out of the realm of possibility that in say 200 years it really starts to exhaust itself? You always hear people talking about a planet just like Earth in 2021, yet 500 years ahead of us, or 1000 years ahead, or 50,000 years ahead, etc. But what if instead there’s millions of goldilocks planets out there who simply “Peaked” and to peak is to only be ahead of Earth by a much humbler amount? Also imagine that such a technological ceiling allowed “Peaked” worlds to communicate with each other, but for anyone to physically travel between those planets would simply never be in the realm of practical possibility.
