First post! Here’s a stolen meme!

/196 is the only place I really like on Lemmy.

    Isn’t this the dream, though? You didn’t have to experience any of that boring “building a society” bullshit, you get to jump straight to “living in the future”.

      I see what you mean, but I don’t think you’ll find consensus on this point. The whole of Robinson Crusoe literature and fiction is practically its own genre at this point. Heck, just check out how many views Primitive Technology has over on Youtube. I think the number of people that would eagerly bootstrap civilization on another planet is easily in the tens of millions, possibly more.

      Not mine. I want to work 18 hours a day on difficult and high stress job that I literally cannot quit, getting paid in company scrip, only to spend my retirement (if I ever have such a thing) in an environment that’s hopefully been made somewhat hospitable.
