What if our existence really is nothing more than a computer simulation? Would testing the hypothesis, and finding a positive conclusion, trigger its immediate collapse and end?
What if our existence really is nothing more than a computer simulation? Would testing the hypothesis...
We did test it, and it's false. We're definitely a hologram, but that doesn't mean what you think it means.
We are in a simulation. But there's no reason to believe that finding a positive conclusion would necessarily abruptly end it. Why do you think that?
Do you think the runner of the simulation would allow it to be so easily solvable? It would only make sense for those in a simulation to have immense difficulties with testing it.

"The shattered remnants of the Vultaum homeworld reveal that it underwent a massive extinction event 12 million years ago, caused by the detonation of some kind of antimatter device. From the ruins that remain on the [From.GetPlanetMoon]'s surface, we have learned that Vultaum society experienced a radical ideological shift a century before their extinction.
Their new philosophy posited that the entire universe was an artificial reality which all sentient beings had been unwittingly plugged into for the amusement of some higher power. The Vultaum undertook increasingly radical attempts to forcefully "disconnect" themselves from this simulation, most of which involved mass suicide.
They finally concluded that only the simultaneous disconnection of billions of individuals would destabilize the system enough to grant them freedom. At an agreed upon hour, Vultaum everywhere killed themselves by any means available. Those who refused to take part in this mass suicide were too few to repopulate the species, and so the Vultaum faded into obscurity and eventual extinction."
If humans are capable of crafting simulations they would craft tens of thousands of simulations and parse them for data, reducing the chance of being in base reality to 0%, thus making the fact that we are/aren't in a simulation irrelevant.
what matters is establishing the chosen peoples homeland so the messiah will come and save us with his technolgy
Braaaaaaaaaap.
The ultimate redpill is that it wouldn't change anything. People wouldn't care and would happy stay in the simulator and accept it for what it is. In fact they'll turn violent on you for trying to disrupt the whole system that the cattle is happy to be in.
Go find out and shoot up a synagogue!

There's already plenty of research on this topic. Here's a good paper on it:

One would assume the simulation is built and run for a purpose or reason. We don’t know what that is: perhaps experimentation (we are just one of multiple situations with different inputs to test output) or entertainment etc. Perhaps, the purpose is to even see if we can recognize it as a simulation. Regardless, our knowledge of the simulation would logically render that purpose moot. There would be no reason to continue it.
We are in our own sim.
When you die, you exit the sim.
When you first harmed another being, or the environment, you activated the post puberty aging sequence, and eventually die.
You (normally) cannot come back or affect the sim from death state, and maybe even be "asleep" until the end.
It sucks to be awake and not to be in the sim.
You signed the dotted line to be held accountable by your victims after the
sim is finished.
Your victims decide whether or not you can
come back for version 2, and in what capacity.
It wasn't supposed to go this way.
Good luck.
>implying you could even test that hypothesis
If we live in a simulation (which is highly probable), any instruments and methodology we use to prove or disprove that are simulated, and therefore, inconclusive results.
It would be the equivalent of a Rollercoaster Tycoon peep trying to test if he lives in a 2d world or a 3d world while his entire perception is from the world he lives in. We would have no way of knowing for certain that our universe is simulated if our perception is limited to what's in the simulation. Pursuant to this, how is reality defined within a simulation? How many layers of "real" are there? Videogames are fake, but if our world is also simulated, can we really dismiss games so easily?

>When you first harmed another being, or the environment
Telling this to a person who was circumcised at birth means nothing. Fuck this sim I hope it crashes with no survivors and takes its sadistic architects with it.
Whether it is a simulation or whether we exist in the mind of "God's" dream, just learn to rewrite the code. Quantum physics shows the observer can alter reality. That is essentially one of the first things taught to children if you pay attention. Do you think nursery rhyems are a waste of time? No, they were calcuated to become a childs first instruction set, to program children with the most important instruction set first.
"Row, row, row, yoru boat, gently down the stream, merrily merrily merrily merrily life is just a dream"
Learn to control the dream, as in the way one controls a lucid dream and you can control your life. Intense pain or trauma can help you achieve this state as well.
Perhaps testing it would collapse ourselves.
You can't handle the truth, goy.
Is French ass the best ass?

They found classical systems and their incumbent mathematics are insufficient to sustain a quantum many-body system -- like a cosmos filled with trillions of possibilities.
they photoshopped the picture
its not that big
What if we actually live in 2D, and that's the lie?
oh..no..a computer stimulation..
nah in the unedited version of the film thats the actual size but big posteriors were not considered attractive at the time of the release so they shrunk it
