You just have to be on your toes.

Aren’t we talking about a scenario where anyone left behind will die? That’s billions of people every time we hop planets. Am I missing something?

According to OPs rules, only Earth gets destoyed, planets we settle after that should be fine.

It’d be a nearly completely barren world with just a few crop fields. How inspiring.

Well, yes at first it would be quite bleak.

Or course we could also just cheat and use our FTL tech to time travel. Find a suitable planet, drop a couple of plant seeds, come back a few million years later and see what stuck.

So are all minor problems compared to FTL technology. So you need to bring some plants, big deal. Also you don’t NEED to move billions of people. Just make new ones when you get there.

If all technology disappeared overnight, humanity would survive.

I agree. Lot’s of people would die, but humanity would indeed survive. We are pretty resilient and adaptable.

I don’t have a house.

Take off in a jet. I giggle like a little girl every time.

During Operation Reinhard they mostly used carbon monoxide.

Would you sell your house for a magic flying car?

I think launching the 100 richest billionairs into space permanently would greatly benefit humantiy. But it’s probably cheaper to put them in a shitty submarine instead.

Ok, where is the problem with that? “Destorying” the planet really only is a problem for us because we only have the one. With FTL travel, we’d have billions. We could literally just blow some up for fun.

I’m not sure that would be true for a civilisation with FTL technology.

Also, even if just 0.01% of planets are habtiable as is, that’s millions of them that we have availible. So it might make much more sense to just move to a new planet as we fuck them up.

Because the current one is going to shit.

Easy access to a lot more planets.

If we’d ever discover FTL travel, the universe and causality would be broken. Earth might as well be a dragon at this point.

I can see how it could be entertaining. Much like watching a train wreck. But “fun” is taking it a bit too far.

I think it adds rather important context and allows you to “read the room” so to speak.

I don’t see how it would be better.

It’s literally easier to launch something outside the solar system than launching it into the sun.
