Look guys, unless it’s gonna end in the next century - or even million years - does it really matter? I mean I could die if a heart attack or tripping down the stairs, but statistically speaking, probably not today, so I’m not really concerned with it.
I’m not worried about the event happening soon, I am worried about the research not being settled within my lifetime. It’d be really fun to know! Or at least have some idea of what will happen. I’m curious :)
Considering the random branches of science that have gone into making better hard drives, I’d be willing to put money on ‘understanding dark energy’ => ‘higher density data storage’ as one benefit of the tech.
But yeah, we understand more things, we’re in a better position to understand even more things, and some have applications you benefit from every day.

It might matter.
It might not.
That’s how new knowledge works.
