Technically speaking, both my "endless learning"--and the idea that some people might enjoy governing a civilisation / creation--are hobbies, so this is already covered in my post. Though I rely on powers there.

As for managing that without any other power, well it's theoretically possible, but doubtful in practice. What hobby do you suggest for a post-cataclysm life on a planet that wipes out everything man-made as well as all the men except for yourself? How about if / when your civilisation stagnates, and you end up with no choice but to repeat the things you've already tried before--over and over again?

Finally, as for the notion that "if you can do something for 70 years, you can do it for 70K years", I recommend that you read more fantasy. There are many stories where only a few thousands of years were enough to turn even the most enjoyable of activities utterly boring and uninteresting.
