If death sentence trials weren't so financially burdensome for the state, I'd probably be okay with it. Maybe. -

I feel like he's mathematically disproving free will. lol
Originally posted by HTS None of these scenarios lead to any deterministic paradoxes. If anything, they show the absurdity that arises when you try to change the perfectly predicted outcome ("adding one", "buying a different ticket"). These all could be construed as arguments for determinism. lol

Originally posted by Captain That is the point.
But there's no paradox there. The machine will count. That is the deterministic outcome of x=x+1. It'll count until it breaks, and never display a number other than 0 because it's too busy adding 1s to its predicitions. It's a problem with your machine, not the concept of determinism itself. The result of running that machine can be predicted. ?_?

Originally posted by Captain It's not an assumption, it is a conceivable action, you have to tell me why it is inconceivable. I already demonstrated how it was conceivable.
Let me boil it down even further.
A computer QED is made of 3 components
The LCD, which displays a zero by default
The UNG generates a perfect prediction of what number will be displayed on the LCD after QED runs.
The NMD takes this number, adds +1 and outputs it on a display
This is simply a matter of the UNG's function being antecedent to the NMD's. I dont see any conceivability problem here. If we assume that the NMD's function is possible, then there is a paradox. Thats why we assume the NMD's function is not possible. We can expand this very easily to fit some kind of universal state number or whatever.
Why is it not possible? What is the conceivability problem here? But you can address the above example if it makes it more clear.
The computer crashes because it can't both predict the number on the screen and add 1 to that number before displaying it, because the output is itself + 1. It just keeps adding 1s until the machine breaks. This isn't a problem with determinism, this is a problem with your machine. The result that the computer crashes because of its paradoxical parameters is deterministic. -_- -

I mean, if a jedi is dying and can be saved by an organ transplant from a goy, there is a moral obligation to take the organ from the goy to save the jedi. Even if this kills the goyim. Goyim aren't even people. They're animals that walk on two legs. -

Originally posted by Captain Because it is a conceivable action that leads to an absurd/contradictory/inconceivable conclusion and rules out the idea that the premise can be true. I dont know what part of this you dont understand. This is just your sub-Obbetimal understanding of the basic subject, not a problem with the argunent.
It's a conceivable action to YOU, because you believe in free-will and are imbuing K with the free-will to change the future he predicts with D. K predicts DX, DX happens. There is no DY. Only D. What was will be, what will be was.
