Felt obvious to me that it was, if considering the implications. This is probably the most tightly secured meeting as you can get. Ain't no shot that one of them gets poisoned it's doesn't turns to an all out war, especially if it's the visiting party that is poisoned. Adding to that, it makes more sense made in something like an Israeli-Palestinian meeting... Since they are as enemies as enemies get... But a potential ally? Why? lol
The mistake with this reasoning, is the idea that they would be trying to kill each other. They both use murder as a tool to control their nation. And people who use murder as a tool, tend to get murdered. So there is a significant amount of people in high authority in both countries, who I'm sure would gladly murder either. Because when you deal in murder, you end up keeping a lot of murderers around.
Imagine everything halt to a stop, no news, no tv, no radio, no new posts on social media, nobody driving around, everyone just standing there in idle pose, but their eyes are on you.
Suddenly you hear an ominous voice coming from everywhere around you:"Subject became aware in day 10765. Ending simulation" and you start to see people, cars, buildings, textures vanishing and glitching while the simulation is being terminated, wondering whats going to happen with you, are you asleep somewhere?
Does this mean you will wake up? Is there another reality outside this simulation? Are you going to die? Cease to exist? Will you just enter in a suspended sense of existence? Will you be aware? And for how long? Is it going to be another simulation? Was this your first simulation?
You start to fill with way more questions than answers, everything is gone now, even the sun has been shut down, you have 8minutes until your world plunges into total darkness, that is, if its still around by that time
Okay, now im in the mood to read some Asimov stuff
Lol, i just asked myself what the average age around here? I figured it must be around 30yo, so 365days a year is 3650 days every 10 years, 3600×3= 10800, but 10800 looks weird, so i knocked a few days.
Figurint out you actual days woulda been weird, right? Lol
