I’m pretty sure it was thread drift. Possibly from one of the “Extinction-level event” or similar threads? Or the “how long would human engineering survive if we all vanished” threads.

No drift, as such, but the OP was a bit different in phrasing. And [this one](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/another-question-about-evolution/965817/51) last year did drift there
