I have had this argument with a poster a few times. Kip Throne an astro physicist who came up with the science behind insterstellar and in his he explains how the Sun will grow so big it will engulf Earth. Granted this is billions of years away.
This is now several sources backing this.

There was ever a dispute? Existentialism broham. Nothing we do matters. Probably kill ourselves off first, but ultimately all the popping off and trophies will be incinerated by the sun. So this bored has it right, DIAFF.

So.... global warming is real?

Let d2d know.
 
You must not remember the discussions. You said the sun will supernova, which it will not. It's not massive enough (Fetters.jpg) to supernova, which is a rapid collapse of the star followed by an explosion.

It will grow to a red giant and engulf the earth. Then it will slowly shrink into a dwarf star, which is much smaller and colder than it is now.

Here's a handy chart showing the difference. The sun will take the top path.

That's the ultimate race. But, we'll destroy ourselves first.
