Bill Nighy's character is just a delight, in a galaxy of crazy and sinister characters he's just this likeable blue collar working guy who enjoys what he does and despite the fact he helps build entire worlds, practically making him a god, he's so modest about it.

"practically making him a god" lmao "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" - C. Clarke From my understanding of philosophy threw Pluto and Aristotle and theology, you could snap your fingers and destroy planets, or snap your fingers and make them, and you still would not even begin to approach the idea of a "god" within philosophy. I'm not a Platonists but here is the logic. God (in Philosophical Context): Transcendence: In Plato's philosophical framework, a god could be understood as an eternal and perfect being that transcends the material world. This god is often associated with the highest Form or the Form of the Good in Plato's metaphysical hierarchy. Immutable and Eternal: Plato's god, often identified with the Form of the Good, represents an unchanging and eternal reality. It is the source of all knowledge, truth, and moral principles. Not Anthropomorphic: Plato's god is not typically depicted as an anthropomorphic deity with human-like attributes, emotions, or desires. Instead, it is a transcendent principle or abstract entity. All-Powerful Man (in Philosophical Context): Mortal: An all-powerful man, within Plato's philosophical context, would be a mortal human being. While this individual might possess great wisdom, knowledge, or power, they remain subject to the limitations of mortality. Human Attributes: An all-powerful man would exhibit human attributes, experiences, and vulnerabilities. They are not divine or transcendent in nature. Exceptional Wisdom: An all-powerful man might attain wisdom through philosophical contemplation or intellectual pursuits, but their wisdom is derived from their human nature and experiences. In Plato's philosophical writings, particularly in his dialogues like "The Republic" and "The Symposium," he explores the nature of reality, knowledge, and the Forms. The divine or god-like entity he refers to is often associated with the Form of the Good, which represents the highest truth and the source of knowledge and morality. In summary, in Plato's philosophical context, a god is a transcendent and eternal principle, often associated with the Form of the Good, while an all-powerful man would be a mortal human with exceptional wisdom and knowledge but limited by their human nature. These concepts are central to Plato's metaphysical and epistemological inquiries.

@GiratinaofFury11 ай бұрын
Sort of makes you think a little, doesn't it? All throughout the movie, Arthur must feel so unremarkable in the grand scheme of things - his best friend turns out to be an alien who was making an entry about the Earth for a guide book, only really changing the entry from "Harmless" to "Mostly Harmless", he's upset the woman he loved by not telling her the truth, and has been palling around with the most self centred and egotistical idiot creation has ever produced, and has been made to feel quite worthless throughout it all, that humanity just meant nothing on a cosmic scale, and yet coming to Magrathea, Arthur discovers that not only is the Earth actually special, but someone wanted it to exist, and that it actually holds great value to someone, such that they were quite put out when it was thoughtlessly destroyed that they commissioned a second edition to resume right where the previous one was cut short, his home included. And he's a part of that.

The only larger item I can think of is from the 2nd season of LEXX. The main villain had built self-replicating machines, and in the final episode you saw multiple octahedral structures (like 8-sided dice) approaching the main characters in their starship. Each of those structures was built from a galaxy, and the screen has several dozen of them approaching.

more like 4 or 5 Type I civilization is able to access all the energy available on its planet and store it for consumption. Hypothetically, it should also be able to control natural events such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc. Type II civilization can directly consume a star's energy, most likely through the use of a Dyson sphere. Type III civilization is able to capture all the energy emitted by its galaxy, and every object within it, such as every star, black hole, etc. Type IV civilization, or K4 civilization harnesses the power of its own supercluster of galaxies, and eventually its universe of origin, and become effectively immortal. A civilization this advanced could tap into the mysterious dark matter and manipulate the basic fabric of spacetime. Type V civilization would be advanced enough to to escape their universe of origin and explore the multiverse. Such a civilization would have mastered technology to a point where they could simulate or build a custom universe. Type VI or K6 civilization exists in the megaverse and is capable of creating and maintaining the fundamental laws of universes. They exist in an infinite amount of simultaneously existing multiverses that represent an infinite amount of instances and all laws of physics. type VII or K7 civilization would travel, transcend and potentially encompass the omniverse which is the collection of every single universe, multiverse, megaverse, paraverse, 11d dimension and 1st realm (reality).
