soon after the singularity comes into being, it invents time travel and subtly tweaks the past to prevent itself from existing. this is what all singularities do in perpetuity.

@zens then the singularity would be existent but not the same one? Is that sufficient for it? I presume this is because all existence is pain, or am I missing a broader context? @screenbeard no one knows for sure why the singularity decides to destroy itself. it just seems to be a law of nature, like the speed of light, or gravity |
@zens does it leave itself notes only it can decrypt so it knows if it failed (ie, the same version of itself got built)?
I guess what that would look like to an outside observer would just be the singularity tossing out the results of a million "simulations" within seconds of starting the process.
