Something’s strange about a visitor from beyond our solar system. Could it contain aliens?
- just take me fucking home!mugwart
- they probably came in with ideas of contact -- saw what was on netflix and fled with an intergalactic "nope"mugwart
- Meh... I'd be concerned if it was a couple of those coming this way in some sort of geometrical formation.Maaku
- Sending one that's big enough, rather than a formation (why?), seems like a far more logical thing for a super intelligence to do.set
- I'm not saying it's a ship, I just want maaku to start being concerned.set
- big enough for what exactly?monospaced
- The contents of the hypothetical formation of ships mono, my dear old confused friend.set
- It's not confusion, it's a fair question. Maaku was imagining multiple large objects in formation. You're talking about a single one big enough to hold a fleet?monospaced
- I'm just getting clarification, my friend.monospaced
- You're still confused.set
- I'm not trying to argue, I'm genuinely curious what you're describing. If I'm confused, please set me straight on that. Thanks, man.monospaced
- I agree with you, btw, that sending one ship is a better idea than sending many. I was just asking about the "big enough" part. I'm not stupid.monospaced
- Sometimes I'd like to just converse with you without being met with immediate condescension and ridicule.monospaced
- Maybe they are tiny midget alien species and that's a pretty big ship for them. You might be right, one ship is enough.Maaku
- lol, I'm sorry mono, I don't mean to offend, really, it just seems that you more than anyone is constantly confused on here.set
- Obviously I meant sending one ship that is big enough to carry everything that would be in the formation of ships maaku envisioned, would make more sense, maybeset
- ... but now I sound like the people that say 'why would aliens put lights on their ships? That's stupid'...set
- ... As if we could possibly hope to imagine any reasons why a superior intelligence would do anything...set
- It's a bit like an ant labeling humans as stupid because it saw one of us walk past a perfectly good bit of apple on the sidewalkset
- Anyway... Probably just a cock shaped rock.set
- lol @ the ant reasoning, but yeah.Maaku
- it's all a good thought experiment right now, which is the level playing field we're sharing ... have fun!monospaced
