  • I wonder how close the comet comes for the Lich to be able to jump towards Earth like that.

    Logic dictates that that comet swoops overheard, but 10 million km away, and then *a week later the Lich drops the elbow

    * Nearest comment came 15M km close to Earth
    * Meteorites travel at roughly 20-30 km/s
    * 15e6 km / (25 km/s) = 600k s = 6.9 days





  • I know, but we did some cool things. Our advances in Math and Physics to unlock the secrets of the universe. Our engineering prowess. The Linux Kernel is a standing achievement of humanity’s ability to contribute to something greater than themselves for no real financial gain. Plus our music and our humour and our entertainment have been just fantastic.

    It’d be cool if we could at least have some permanent record of that if we don’t make it, so that future aliens could know that despite us being continual fuckwits, we did do some pretty amazing things.

    Yeah we were a blip. But I don’t want that blip to mean nothing.
