Where are the aliens?
Pre-empted and non-existent? Staying home because space is boring? Engrossed in virtual reality? More in the Fermi Paradox here.

About Me
- Name: Infidel753
- Location: Portland, Oregon, United States
Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.

I'd love to see if there's a consensus for a new name to replace the Fermi "Paradox". There are at least several dozen solutions that have been kicking around for decades, from the age-old VR solution to the Rare Earth hypothesis or even the "They're not interested". With so many potential solutions, it no longer seems right to call it a paradox.
