Returning here after a long time away due to lack of time, and let's start by talking a little about what an omnipotent civilization would be like.
Yes, this again, but, after doing some research and talking a bit with ChatGPT, I was able to reach a conclusion about what would be the perfect ideal form of a civilization that would represent the level of Scientiapotence.
While browsing the internet, I once saw a comment saying that the Downstreamers were so powerful that they could create multiple versions of The-One-Above-All from Marvel Comics, but that's not true; they are far from having that capability.
And while chatting with ChatGPT about what it would mean to transcend, and what it would truly be like to be a being that surpasses everything, we arrived at some conclusions, mixing both real and theoretical physics, as well as metaphysics and philosophy.
Starting with, a being that surpasses everything, even the very act of existing, ceases to be a "being," and becomes merely the "being before being," that which gives meaning and origin to everything, or in short, it would be the "essence of existence," if we were to compare it, it would be the raw hardware of a computer that gives meaning to the existence of an entire system; the hardware only makes everything work, but it has neither thought nor will. It would also be the ultimate point that no one could contest, and anyone who tried to elevate themselves to that level would be absorbed and become part of the very essence of existence, that is, they would become part of the whole.
But there's a point that comes close, which is becoming existence itself, but not the essence of existence, that is, you would be the binary field of the computer that makes everything work, meaning everything would be derived from you, because you would be the totality of existence itself, which doesn't necessarily mean that you are everything that exists, but rather that you allow things to exist.
For example, being the totality of existence would be allowing what may or may not exist, and being the essence of existence would be the "why" something can exist; it's a very subtle difference and difficult to grasp.
So, thinking about that, and about a comment I once saw here about Scientiapotence, about living as humans with omnipotent technology, and bathing in divine energy and similar things, I started considering where the threshold would be for something to still be considered a "civilization".
And the result is the creation of the civilization that is in the link below. A civilization that transcended reality itself, hitting the ceiling of existence, altering the source code of reality, but still living as normal humans, with cities, culture, and yet, being beings capable of creating multiple The-One-Above-All.
This also touches on the physical, metaphysical, and philosophical aspects of what these beings would actually be like, with derivations of omnipotence, Scientiapotence, Arcanepotence, Almighty Mind, and the like.
As I've mentioned before, people sometimes misinterpret these omnipotent powers. It's more than just having immense, infinite power; it's about altering the meaning of one's own being and becoming the power itself, or the very source of power.
And importantly, I wrote everything in my original language, and then used a translator to translate everything into English, so some sections may need revision later, which I will do when I have more time.
