Won't the world someday eventually end like the ending of Terminator 3, where the nukes worldwide are unleashed 😋🥲?

[itsclearlynicholas]

I mean after watching Terminator 3 Rise of the Machines in cinemas/theatres when it came out in 2003/2004 and on DVD a few times ever since, I mean I watched Civil War (2024) recently and I reminded myself how, even if let's say unrelatedly the world was controlled by illuminati, or by puppet masters behind the scenes, or by political masters ever since the dawn of modern times or like Resident Evil The Final Chapter or Twilight's Last Gleaming, those movies all commonly ended with the nukes worldwide being used to just end the world and either start afresh for humanity or leave the Earth a winter rock or a smouldering globe. Accidentally, deliberately or coincidentally, will the world ever end someday by worldwide nukes "just because the world has run its course/overpopulation/boredom" if there were political masters, lizard people, etc lol? Those nutcase tinfoil hat wearers so I just had to ask the question 😋🥲 that way I don't go thinking in years or decades ahead "shrug, the world's gonna end someday anyways, climate change, overpopulation, greed, rude people, ha, cringes and sweats and sighs" 😔😯😆

A lot of movies tend to have that ending it seems, maybe that's all of our eventual futures and fates

Nah, that'll never happen thankfully, so no need to ever worry

All just works of fiction thankfully

Maybe the world is run behind the scenes by nutcases, so who knows

All just conspiracy theories to sell a fast buck or sell a subscription magazine/agenda lol 😆

Especially I notice about Terminator 3 Rise of the Machines' the film just depicts an ordinary day, of ordinary goings on, and even John Connor thought it was just another day apart from his earlier slipping on a motorcycle from a deer, ouch 🤕😳 just an ordinary day. Anyways I'll try not to think of lizard people and that i should ever think there'll ever be a doomsday lol phew 😌😅

No; they're nowhere near that powerful. Oh, nukes could destroy civilization, no problem, but not the human race, and certainly not the Earth. Our entire planet's combined nuclear arsenal is dwarfed by the energy that would be released if Yellowstone blew, and that's just ONE supervolcano. And humanity- not with modern infrastructure and technology, but in 70,000 BC- survived Toba.

But it would still suck, which is why it's good that it probably won't happen. Ever hear of Vasily Arkhipov? The guy who there're supposed to be statues of on every streetcorner on Earth? He was the second-in-command on a Soviet sub that just happened to be spotted by an American destroyed group off the coast of Cuba in October of 1962. Not knowing what it was, and not getting a response to its hails, the USN started dropping depth charges. These were signaling charges, which are supposed to force a sub to surface, not to destroy it, but of course the Soviets didn't know that. Taking these as the opening shots of WW3 (which they kind of were), the command crew decided to fire back... with their nuclear-tipped torpedo.

But that required a unanimous vote of the command crew. The captain voted yes. The political officer (Soviet, remember) voted yes. Vasily, knowing the US would retaliate and a nuclear war start, said "No, let's not destroy civilization today", and voted no. The sub surfaced, the USN realized what they'd almost just done, and everybody agreed to back down and let cooler heads prevail- just kidding! That was only the START of the Cuban missile crisis!

Nineteen years later, a guy named Stanislav Petrov found himself in almost the same situation, when a faulty computer chip at his radar station mistook a flock of geese for a wing of American bombers, and he alone refused to send the ICBM launch orders.

So even in the heart of the ideologically-driven "evil empire", humanity prevailed.

Lol. Anyways, I just finished watching Terminator 3 an hour or so ago. It's one of my treasured Blu-rays. Until they ever cease working lol or the DVD goes the way of the dodo bird lol which like all things does eventually lol 🐦 bird, even the twitter bird lol is now just an X lol 😵

It can happen, a nuclear holocaust is a very real threat, why you think that US and Russia never fight a direct war? US give money and weapons to Ukraine by that's it. I am not worried about AI or Illuminati, but Iran are crezy islamists who likely to use nukes if they would have them.

Scientists believe earth will become uninhabitable when the sun becomes a red giant in about a billion years. It will be so hot it will boil off the oceans, that's if humans don't find a way to destroy the earth before than of course.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I don't find it useful to think that way. My analytical side also thinks there are enough inhibitors to predict it unlikely in the relatively near future. Even if I'm wrong though, I don't find it useful.

[itsclearlynicholas]

The irony would be if it's not a Skynet, it's not an AI taking over, it's just the more crazy whacky "lizard people" lol or "shadow puppet masters" I swear those tinfoil hat-wearers must either have no brain cells or they're the smartest whackjobs on the planet lol. Anyways, at least the comedy of Family Guy Y2K and other films like this are always enjoyable as fiction only, just like those movies climate change The Day After Tomorrow or sinking ships like Poseidon or Titanic or like movies that are more horror or more sci fi. 😂 Ah Hollywood, always making us cinema goers hide under our seats lol 💺 🫥

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

It could all happen for sure from an analytical standpoint. But I lean more pragmatist than analyst.

Suppose you and I deeply suspected that one day, the other will do something horrible. Then we're likely going to be in a constant state of suspicion of each other and that will prevent us from ever becoming best friends. If both of us are so suspicious of each other and assume the other might create a disaster, we might end up creating a disaster through that suspicion alone.

So I just find it very counter-productive to assume negative consequences even when the analysis suggests they're very likely to occur. We have to resist that assumption in my opinion to even help avert that worst-case scenario and be willing to die on that hill.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

So we have to think the future might be very bright, even if it might not be, just to maximize the odds that it could be.

I'm aiming to watch Terminator 3 tonight once again on Blu-ray DVD. I for one enjoy just never know 🌎🌍 📀

[itsclearlynicholas]

See unlike the Terminator movies, unhinged military 🪖 🎖️ whackjobs lol like in Twilight's Last Gleaming a 1970s movie and even the movie by the famous guy Dr Strangelove, those freaks are the cause and not the AI, it doesn't keep me awake at night, I just roll with the absurdity that is everyday life's risks and highs and lows the same way that the Y2K new years episode of family guy is such a classic on YouTube or elsewhere on DVD or whatever box set lol DVD 📀

[itsclearlynicholas]

For an old family guy episode the quality animation still holds up well quality wise 👀 📺

[Dongie]

None of the above. Nukes will drop. To much hatred and giant egos in charge but only about 1/3 of humans will be wiped out, Then the real fun begins.

I suspect we can do better then nukes. Fusion power maybe, or maybe a successor to COVID. Or just keep pumping oestrogens into the food stream and let infertility sort the problem out.

[NathanDavis]

might already happened... in the future
