How can you determine if something random isn't still just random?
I live above ground level and I enjoy a stable diet of meat and water, so I am already tending for my health wisely, I hope.
What do you think humans are, just animals waiting for the clock to run out? Humans serve a much greater purpose than that, we are decentralized infinity, trying to coordinate to resolve the issues still plaguing our reality.
It requires perfect timing.
Sometimes what is required is just to process our surroundings when 'nothing' happens, sometimes much more is required.
It all adds up.
