who agrees that we live in a computer simulation
 

I know it sounds crazy but hear me out...
Go into a store, go to an empty aisle and start shopping, all of a sudden four or five people will come into that aisle. While in the store, decide to go and get a specific item, think about it on your way there, when you get there, a person will no doubt be standing right in front of the item you were getting. Coincidence? I think not.

I have been testing this theory after studying "the secret" if you don't know what that is, google it, there's a great documentary about it, and IT WORKS!

I think the reason it works is that reality either IS or works exactly like a computer simulation. We actually create the reality around us. test it, it works every time. The world works a lot like GTA 5. Its so simple once you know what to look for. The truth is that Physicists have said this seems to be true and recently a scientist found what he believes is computer code that appears to be created by intelligent design in the fabric of reality.

...or maybe I just had too many drinks with lunch :pimp

I agree with the secret and putting your mind towards something and believing it. I really do. It's hard work but that constant reminder that "most things" are within reach if you really want it. Get motivated and just do.

“I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized."

You don't believe what you wrote. Because if you really did you wouldn't be writing this to yourself:upsidedow Think about what I said:winkwink:

:thumbsup:1orglaugh

I do not think I am the only player in the game...Most people are NPC's but a percentage of us have free will. You are welcome :thumbsup

I think I've spotted errors in the code before...

I was once sitting in my car in a super market parking lot waiting for someone to come out.

While sitting there I noticed a person walking into the store.. then maybe 10 minutes later the same person walks by me again going into the store.. and I know there's no way that person could have come back out of that store without me seeing..

With multiple players this whole theory (the same goes for The Secret-theory) is not even possible. How can you attract a piece of the pie if there are other entities trying to attract the same pieces of pie? Ohw wait... this all of a sudden doesn't sound that metaphysical... It sounds more like everyday life... or reality... or whatever you want to call it.

exactly! otherwise I would be 100% in control of everything, but add in 10% of the people are real players and there is some room for variables.

Ah... mkay... that must be the reason why some girls suck my dick and others bitch slap me in the face:upsidedow

Some people's minds are so malleable

Theoretical Physicist Finds “Computer Code” in the Fabric of Space

The idea that we live in a holographic universe that uses a form of quantum “computer code” to create the physical reality is not a new idea. In the 1940s, some physicists suggested that we live in a “computer generated” universe.

This is indeed what we would call a simulation.

At times I've been aware of the "other side" (or possibly a parallel simulation) and most of you probably have as well.

This is actually a simulation within a simulation. It's the only way to control what happens here without wasting too much time there. The first simulation is fast, but this one is very fast. And there may be multiple, perhaps hundreds, of second level simulations happening at once.

I don't want to be in a simulation

We live inside a stimulation . . .

for anyone knowing anything about the brain, there is zero question that much of your daily experience is illusory and invented in brain. your brain does not provide you with a faithful representation of the world around you. colors do not exist - these are just photos bouncing off the retina and converted to an electrical signal, then turned into something in your brains visual systems. smells do not exist - these are just molecules bouncing off exposed nerves, converted to electrical signals and interpreted by the brain. sounds do not exist - these are just compressions in airwaves interpreted by the brain. your brain actively distorts time. even when you look around yourself, your brain is inventing much of what you believe yourself to be seeing. your brain lies to you all day long, giving you "makes sense" explanations of your thoughts and feelings which have little to no basis in any reality, yet you accept it. in fact, i can ask you what your favorite color is and you can emphatically say "red"... but you don't know what your favorite color is. your conscious mind does not have access to that unconscious mental process,... your conscious mind only knows that there was a faint flash of positive emotional affect at the idea of "red"... and then makes up the lie to explain it. you think you have "free will"... but every single process of your brain depends on a previous process. meaning the start point is birth and the end point is death. if i ask you take a certain action, you cannot know if it was not more influenced by mental processes from 2 months ago which through a "butterfly effect" led you to that decision.

much of what you perceive is a lie no matter how you look at it.

enjoy the matrix.

eat the steak.
savor its taste... don't question it and you'll be happy.

be a good boy and Agent Smith won't come for you

We live in a shared illusion . . .

considering that my brain can fire patterns of neurons in your brain (as it is right now as you read this), that is more or less true.

Um, it's not a secret.

Wypipo are going to have to defend ourselves and our way of life eventually.

It WAS a secret. But information era and all that. Theres apps to teach people how to read now.

Anyway, God runs the show.

(drops mic)

we are sentient little pieces of carbon looking for patterns in a huge and scary universe while grasping into our preconceptions.

short answer to thread title: i don't.

big bang = big upload...

When I was REALLY young, I used to think something similar. I'd look out the window at houses I could see in the distance and think that they were just false fronts put there for my benefit like on a movie studio. When I went to a shop, everyone else there were just actors, totally put there for my benefit, and when I returned home the store was empty until I returned.

I felt this really strongly for a while when I was about 6 or 7 years old. Then it passed. I think it's part of the brain coming to terms with the fact that you yourself are NOT the absolute center of the universe, and not everything revolves around you.

The computer simulation part does not come into play though, but thats cause back then I had no concept of computers as they didn't really exist outside of a room sized machine on tv with flashing lights, printing out a long strip of 'paper till roll' with info on that could only be understood by scientists in white coats...

What about boobs.. are they fake too?

Pity you aren't a player in Mortal Kombat, and someone does a FATALITY on you.


That would be kewl !

Just another distraction for people who can't accept reality.

This is why dreams seem real when you're in it, but weird after you wake up. You don't have the visual information to complete the picture.

But if it's a simulation then it's amazing because we've progressed enough in this simulation to create simulations and questions whether or not we're in one ourselves. If we figure out how to put people in simulations without them knowing it, would it be because that's part of the simulation...or because we (the simulated) actually did it?

I say this in the nicest and most respectful way possible some of you need to talk to a professional mental wellness specialist. Really.

The idea that our reality is a simulation is a theory, and, of course, may be true. However, since only the Great Descartes has been proven correct, by his own logic and by others, we can't say what form we actually take.

We tend to project the reality of our existence onto this question: feudal societies created god at the top, hunter gatherers create the great cycle, we imagine a video game.

We are "world forming" beings, so I there's nothing wrong with creating a falsely glorious world of your own.

I suppose not, but believing it, another matter

Call it a "deviation" or a "side effect" of being a res cogitans (thinking thing) . . .

"A game in which I seem to never find out just what I am
I don't know if I'm an actor or ham
A shaman or sham but if you don't mind, I don't mind"

If we were in a computer simulation then we would experience system crashes that cause
weird shit to happen; like Trump being elected as president.

OH WAIT!

:2 cents:

That's what they call "a glitch in the Matrix".

Kind of like John Travolta being rediscovered by Quentin Tarantino and now we live in an alternate reality where he had a career after the Look Who's Talking movies.

Spot on! :1orglaugh:thumbsup

This post is a masterpiece

Such a sad bitter hateful old fake you are. Following me around like a bitch in heat. Shameful

I was in a busy shopping mall with a friend when a woman walked up to us holding a live chicken. The chicken was trying to get free and making all kinds of noise.

The lady literally just came out of no where.

She walked past everyone (who completely ignored her) and went straight to us.

When she got to us she stopped and said, "This chicken is hard to hold on to".

Then she walked off. Again no one seemed to noticed.

My friend and I did not talk about it or even seemed phased by it. It wasn't until hours later that it hit us and I said WTF was that woman doing with a chicken and where did she get it. He seemed to become confused (and now 100% aware) of the incident at the same time.

To this day we joke about it, but it's a total mystery.
