Our earth is only 4 billion years old in a universe that is 14 billion years old. What could a species learn, create, and do that has a 2 or 3 billion year head start on us? what about 10?

    We have memes that meme on other memes that meme on basic memes, aka tier 3 memes.

    A more advanced civilization has probably a much higher tier of meming where you need to learn meme lore for many years before you can comprehend state of the art memes. How high that tier is depends om the lifetime of individuals, I reckon humans could reach tier 10 before there are too many memes to fit in a lifetime.

    It is extremely unlikely that there is any life from 10 billion years older than we are, as the first generation stars probably did not provide enough chemical elements to form life to their planetary systems.

    Read the SciFi trilogy starting with The Three-Body Problem. Deals with this exact thought/concept in an interesting way.

    assuming the universe wasn’t as hostile to life as it really was, they probably reached a major bottleneck in development where there wasn’t much more to discover cause speed of causality can’t be broken, negative energy can’t be figured out, or they deleted themselves by war/pollution

    Think of the porn these guys have. A hundret years ago the kinkiest thing we had was anal. Nowadays we have shit like penis vore and reverse birth. Imagine what we will have in another hundret years. Would make the Cenobites look tame in comparison

      We have people slicing their dicks in half and creating a pseudo pussy under their balls. Shits getting wild.
