If we are in a simulation
« on: March 07, 2018, 12:03:58 AM »
There is three possibility. One this is the one of the three strong possibility. However there is everytime a possibility of only I'm real and whole things are fake.

But why. If this is just a dream, who and why decided to wake me. And why he does it by torturing, instead of pleasurable? These are unanswerable questions. Watch this:

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...

He decided to wake me up; because he afraids I like this life and don't return back. Because I discovered the immortality and can stay in this world to infinitive, if I wants to do this. So that, he want to I hate this life and decide to leave this world. It's just jealousy.

I am real.


I think the computer simulation shtick is just to further spiritually bankrupt us.

All their pet shills are on board with it.
Why would that be inciting terrorism?  Lorddave was merely describing a type of shop we have here in the US, a bomb-gun shop.  A shop that sells bomb-guns.

You think you are real, but how do you know?

The problem I have with any discussion of the likelihood of us being a simulation is, all the factors used to guess at this likelihood (age/size of the universe, prevalence of intelligent life in the universe, pace of technological development, energy needs, laws of physics, etc.) are based on what we observe in our universe.  But if our universe is simulated, then so is all of that evidence we can use to investigate the question.  A complete Catch-22.

Perhaps in the "real" universe all of the above variables are such that simulating universes is utterly commonplace.  Hell, the planets there might even be flat.

At any rate, for that reason I think the question is basically null.  Interesting to think about though.

If all of you are fake but constantly say you are real; then what happens? How can I understand are you real or not?

We each individually experience the effect of some objective reality. Whatever that objective reality is, it is the cause of all our experiences. It may be an advanced simulation, the universe that many assume it is, or it could be nanobots interacting in the fart of a cosmic dragon. Each of these causes have an indistinguishable effect from our point of view, and so it is very hard to justify assuming one over the other. One possible argument may be Occum's Razor, but I personally think this would be a faulty argument.

There is absolutely no way to prove either that we are or we aren't in a simulation so it's kind of silly to obsess over it.

You can't.  That's the point, and the problem with that line of thought.  You cannot prove anything actually exists except your own mind.  And even then you cannot really prove it's actual nature.

I think that part of the obsessing is to try to find a way to determine whether or not we are in a simulation. Thinking about it is not just constantly thinking "We could be in a simulation, wow." We can think of it with different paths of logic, applying it to parts of our life, comparing it to what we already know. Saying that there is absolutely no way to prove either way is just rejecting the question. Its like answering a question of who fired the first shot at Lexington with, "Well there's no real way to prove either way so there is no point in obsessing over it."
