Reality Is All Just a Simulation
Quote:
Of course, the goal of uploading our brains assumes that we aren’t already living in a computer simulation. Hear out the logic: Technologically advanced civilizations will eventually make simulations that are indistinguishable from reality. If that can happen, odds are it has. And if it has, there are probably billions of simulations making their own simulations. Work out that math, and "the odds are nearly infinity to one that we are all living in a computer simulation," writes Ed Grabianowski for io9.

Infinity to one that we are a simulation, and probably a simulation made by a simulation? That's what you call a good bet....
Is everyone relieved? If all this shit was real, that would be incredibly fucked-up, but this is just a game that's about over. Whew. Change the set-up and try again.
Anyway, fireflys are explained. They are just an app, someone threw them in just because they are so cool.

Many times I can fix a nightmare by willing myself to wake up. That doesn't work in the concious world for so many reasons.

I think, for the conscious world, you have to jump off a building.

I knew all along that this human existence is a simulation, because basically we are so simple...we do the same shit over and over.

The sumulation I'm in thinks the simulation you're in is bullshit.
At least the simulation that simulated the simulation I'm in does.
Or maybe it's the simulation that simulated the simulation that simulated the simulation I'm in.

I just wanted to check the condition of the simulation my simulation is in....

Ask him;
"Is this a simulation?"
Then break his nose.
What's the equation for reality busting a dreamers bubble?

If I wanted reality, I'd go to ReMax.

Simulation News:
I am entering an 'ignore means ignore' phase. If you wonder why, if I don't replay to certain stupid shit, it's because I'm not reading it.
