Originally posted by Captain Falcon Idk what to tell ya man. Come to me when you want to challenge your views, not affirm them. We aren't swimming in the same stream for the most part, so that's how I bring our thoughts into one lane.
Its not that I want anyone to affirm anything. It's not like I need someone to agree with me or congratulate me, good job obbe! I don't care about that. I just wanted to post some of my thoughts, some videos I like, and have no interest in your opinions, insults, or how you think you can dismantle me. I mean I could go around dissecting everything you post too, but what's the point? It's meaningless dick sizing for people with fragile egos. -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon BEcause it feels good to feel like you have a handle on reality, and I've been clutching at it for a whiel my dude. I'll try not to do it when I'm on grround level my friend.
I actually love discussing things like this with other people, just not you in particular. -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon You know, your psychobabble is making a lot of sense right now obbe.
I'm sorry, I've been mean to you. I love you bro, you don't mean no harm and I don't mean you any harm. You're another paper boat floating in this stream.
So why do you do it falcon? I try to post about something I like or find interesting, and all you're interested in is how you can tear it apart and how much you can shit all over it. I think actions speak louder than words. What do your actions say about who you are? You can say you "love" me and apologize but that's meaningless when you do this kinda shit. Give me a reason why you do it. -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon What the fuck does "a sea of information" mean specifically? How would you describe the higher concept, or how it is related to our universe as we see it? Make a meaningful point.
Like I already said, I imagine it would be like one of the images I posted, or like math or code, but however you want to visualize it would never be very accurate. Our reality is something like a projection of this information, similar to a shadow projected on a wall, or a hologram, or a simulation, or a dream. -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon Prove it. Explain your idea that a simulation is a metaphor for a "sea of information".
I didn't say a simulation is a metaphor for a sea of information. Read the thread again. You asked me "what idea of higher reality do you have, which contains this "dream like" or "simulation like" world of ours?"
I said I imagine it would be something like a sea of information. -

Originally posted by SBTlauien I'm trying but I can't figure out what is making people not like me. I think I need to spy of people. Like set a little hidden recorder so that I can hear if they talk shit about me when I walk away.
I have to find out what it is.
Some people talk shit about anyone and everything for any reason. There is not always a problem you can fix or a trait you can change or a different way you should act. If you are fine with yourself, how you are, then try not to be bothered by what other people think. It doesn't matter. You could be perfect, some people would still act like you're not worthy. Don't worry about it. Just be the best you can be and don't worry about the assholes. -

… To some theorists, the duality isn’t just mathematical. The universe as we experience it, they say, may actually be the projection of information encoded on some distant cosmic boundary. Where this boundary lies and how the projection occurs are still open questions, but these theorists argue that our reality may be, in essence, a hologram analogous to the silvery images on museum store postcards.
… Quantum information is useful stuff—but what is it telling us about the essential nature of our reality? Some thinkers argue that it suggests our entire universe is itself a quantum computer. -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon It's a way of expressing information, sure. But you aren't fleshing out your idea of what "simulation" is a metaphor for, what "a sea of information" specifically refers to. You're trying your hardest to not actually make a concrete statement about your stupid ass views because you're afraid I'm going to ream you. But I'm actually interested, if you can put a coherent point together, which you're not doing.
But I'm not at all interested in what your stupid ass opinions of my views are. A sea of information is like the pictures I posted, or like a bunch of one's and zeros - however you want to visualize it will never be accurate though. -

Originally posted by Captain Falcon Ok Obbe, I thought you were about to make an interesting point about the idea of reality being a simulation, but I now see that you're shitposting to avoid arguing with me for fear of being wrong.
But it is interesting. That art is information, or at least a way of expressing information. I could have just posted some math or some code too, but no matter what I post you would still call it wrong. It's information bud. -
