I've read about going bellow 0K, to which the article referred as "the highest possible energy state". Does that mean that temperature loops around at 0K and absolute zero is also absolute hot?

[WP] A glimpse of a lone iron star approaching the black hole that provides the power to simulate your consciousness makes you wonder when the last speck of light redshifted beyond the detection of any sensor. Eons pass between every pulse of the computer you call home. You're alone, but hopeful.

[WP] Members of a primitive species are in the process of deciphering warnings from an earlier species that apparently chose to go extinct thinking that they were already doomed and hoping to warn their successors of their mistakes and tell them how to avoid those mistakes
