This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Big AFAIK: The anatomically correct human first appeared roughly 300.000 years ago. In the next 200.000 years they almost certainly genocided all their relatives. After a couple of behavioural changes here and there they had a mutation about 50.000 years ago which changed their brains, improved their communication skills immensely and they finally and truly became what humans are today. But they still wandered around until they finally started growing shit in the ground about 13.000 years ago. But it took about 7.000 additional years for some nerd to start writing roughly 5.000 years ago.

So yeah. The milestones are happening in ever shorter intervals.

@grok draw me an exponential graph

More like gross

As in gross misuse of this planet's resources

Oh that too.

For context, the Grox are a species in Spore, the evolution simulator from 2008, made by Maxis (which got bought by EA).

In there, the Grox are an aggressive species, which control a vast empire around the Milky Way's core, and can only live on T-0 planets. In Spore, planets have a "terraforming score" of T0, T1, T2, up to T3.

A T0 is unlivable and is too hot, cold, humid, or dry, too thick or thing an atmosphere. It has no species.

T1 or T2 is what Earth has in the game. T3 is the "perfect" world. You can terraform a planet to T3 using the Staff of Life, which you get at the Milky Way's Core.


So, by proxy, I'm already calling Musk's Grok a ruination of the world.

You can terraform to t3 without staff of life.

Also T3 is closer to earth since it has more biodiversity

[–] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Yes but it's a pain without the staff of life.
