I think the question of interstellar warfare is really tricky. Grand Futures has a whole appendix on this, but the impression I get is that within the distance of a few parsec this is indeed a problem (objects/lasers can be aimed ~okay easily), but over larger scales you're safe because aiming/stochastic motion of large bodies becomes a problem

@rime They need to add a whole lot of other stuff to unicode, e.g. sub/superscripts for at least all latin characters, a dollar sign with two bars, and probably some others I'm forgetting (http://niplav.site/notes.html#Pet_Peeves)

vis-digraph |
dmenu -l 10 -nf black -nb white -sb '#ffb405' -fn $FONT |
awk '{ print($2) }' |
tr -d '\n' |
xsel -psb

Well, I would consider pure replicators propagating to not be *eu*genics, on the account that they are not very *good*¹.

Have you considered not converting physical tension into philosophical despair
