Topic	Mathematical proof debunks the idea that the universe is a computer simulation
ReturnOfDevsman 11/01/25 7:58:21 PM #14:	Well, I can think of a number of follow-up questions, but the most pertinent one is--of course--how do they know that the theoretical machine that simulates our universe operates anything like the ones we know? I feel like at best, this just declares that whatever theoretical machine is operating the simulation simply doesn't operate in an algorithmic way. But it's always been a pretty simple thought experiment. If anyone really did believe we were in a simulation, hardly anyone behaved any differently as a result. --- Arguing on CE be all like: https://youtu.be/JpRKrs67lOs?si=kPGA2RCKVHTdbVrJ <cite>ReturnOfDevsman posted [p:986908950] in Mathematic...
