Obviously a hypothetical scenario. There is no way to pass on the knowledge to anyone else. Time freezes for you only, and once you have your answer you are out of this world.

The question can allow you to see into the past, present and future and gain comprehension of any topic/issue. But it’s only one question.

Edit: the point isn’t “how to cheat death”. You can’t. Your body is frozen and there is nothing you can do with this knowledge other than knowing it, and die. So if you would rather be frozen in a limbo just thinking of numbers for eternity, be my guest.

Such a variety of replies, it’s been really interesting to read them!

What would you want to know? Personally I’d want to see a timelapse or milestone glimpses of humanity’s future until the end of Earth’s existence (if we survive that long)

      Yep, pretty much! If randomness had made things happen another way we could just be another branch of primates without technology and the Earth at current age could be going on like it did for millions of years and maybe life with technology would only develop in 500m years and it would be based on an evolution of gorillas 🤷

      People have a hard time grasping that evolution is random, things happen, sometimes they give an advantage and it helps the individual pass that change on to their kids, sometimes it might be recessive and it won’t (imagine an human born with perfected knees but the genes weren’t passed on!) and sometimes it’s not beneficial but because it doesn’t hinder the individual they still get to pass that evolution on to their kids… We don’t evolve from hitting our head at a problem long enough that we suddenly have a child that’s born with a fix…
