Imagine dying in this world and waking up in a room in your real body and not too much time passed but it felt like a lifetime , and all the rich people from this world are just no life video game sweats who’ve figured out all the mechanics of this game .
How about when you die that last moment of death goes on for eternity in our minds and this is where heaven exists. It’s like the theory where if you enter a black hole time slows down to the point where a second takes an eternity to pass.
Another fun thing to consider that could suggest a simulation is that data in the universe tends to be represented in the most compact way possible, allowing for the maximum amount of complexity with the minimal amount of waste. It's exactly how an engineer would try to optimize the data. The whole concept of wave-function collapse and other quantum phenomenon allow for incredible fidelity in behavior without needing incredible fidelity in representation, until you need it. Just like in a video game where the computer tries to only care about what you're looking closely at, and everything else is an approximation. You could also see how the speed of light might be analogous to the computer's clock because it's tied so tightly with time. It guarantees everything gets an update, even if you approach the limits of the processor; the entire simulation slows down to devote processor resources to updating the fast-moving object. Everything else still gets its updates, just less frequently.
"It guarantees everything gets an update, even if you approach the limits of the processor; the entire simulation slows down to devote processor resources to updating the fast-moving object." That's a fascinating thought
@omopurse9668 Just a thought... it might do you good to ask yourself why you're default setting is a negative one. Genuinely, it could help you if you're honest with yourself. Good luck. 🤗
@@Maradonaldinhothink about this. Seriously think about it. Why can’t we see things that are very far away? What’s blocking me from seeing something clear, that is way off in the distance? A tree. A piece of paper. Any kind of object. Why from a certain distance, is that object blurry, and as you get closer, you see more and more detail. Sounds like rendering to me.
@@MaradonaldinhoI often find my default setting shift to negative too when commenting online. I essentially agree with your comment. I think part of it is that we didn't evolve to encounter so many people we don't know, and their opinions, without having to meet them physically.
@@pedroroque829you could smoke about the same as the tip off a butter knife and have nice visuals and it would wear off in 15 mins or you can go at it with a few pipes one after the other and meet the others.
@@christopherharris8312 I believe that theorizing about our reality in such a grandiose way is important for our collective awareness as a species, but ultimately unconfirmed since we are unable to verify our theories. It's speculation land. There's also an element of bias that's hard to eliminate since we sit dead in the middle of the simulation. For instance, What if there are constraints placed by God himself which limit our baseline perception of the Simulation? That would mess all of our notation up big time.
I bet many people feel like their life is that of an NPC. Get up, go to work, come home, do chores, eat dinner, go to sleep, rinse and repeat. That is basically an NPC. If we're in a simulation, some of us need to be NPC's. And some of us need to be the NPC Dragon. Or just press pause and get back to reality.
I know dude. I’m hoping it’s just something like that and we wake up to a less depressing and strife filled world. Or maybe the majority is just unhealthy right now. Idk but working life away and going through so much pain can’t be real
My mom died in 2012.. if she is out of the simulator, Im asking her to pls top up my account, add more perks, and fix some things in the past. Come on, Mama!
Need to file a #bugreport (Sorry, couldn't resist a programming joke. I wish you the best of luck with your illness and I hope that all the rest, relaxation and recuperation that could possibly come your way, does.)
I know,. Can I go to options and turn off the Ulcerative Colitis Option? And turn on the Super Healthy Option? And the Arthritis Option, I want that turned off as well. Whomever is playing me, please turn the difficulty level down to easy or novice. Or use a cheat code for God Mode.
My buddy and I were golfing about 10 years ago and I explained simulation theory to him. He took a hit from his bowl and blew out smoke and was just like “my guy gets me high all day.” I still crack tf up that to this day

That's mine but the real sick twist is I hate smoking and always try to quit for my health and longevity. Yet still I'm getting high everyday, all day.
I’m not religious but it makes me laugh how people can’t see that simulation theory is just creationism, they’ve just switched “god” for “programmer” it’s literally the exact same thing!
You make a good point. Reminds me of an unattributed quote: "Man will believe anything, as long as it's not in the Bible." Ironically, the quote is commonly attributed to Napoleon, though there is no evidence of his saying or writing it.
@@Disinfo321 Creationism is at least as scientifically viable as the theory of everything coming from a singularity with no explained origin or cause for expansion. Just because one theory aligns with a lot of religions, doesn't mean it is in itself religious. Also, there are many books in the Bible that are not primarily narrative based, or "stories". The book of proverbs, for instance, is a book of proverbs. One could just as easily dismiss this theory of simulation as a story that was fabricated over time. And it's laughably convenient (as evidenced by all the laughing in the comments) that this theory is being considered at the precise time that people are dealing in and creating complex simulations. They're like a kid with a new toy. One of the key differences between the theoretical science mankind is always involved in, and the books of the Bible is that the Bible foretells what will happen and is not wrong. Mankind on the other hand thought Columbus would fall off the side of the earth, that we'd all be living on the moon with jetpacks, and millions of other predictions that were supposedly arrived at scientifically, but never came to pass. That people put so much faith in the pseudo science of their respective lifetimes, while laughing at the science of yesteryear is strange.
Was anyone else really hoping Joe or Jamie was going to bring up the “Mandela effect” to Robert? Especially when he was talking about variables being changed and some people having memories of the past where that particular variable was different? For example, the monopoly man wearing a monocle. To this day, I still have a clear memory of drawing the monopoly man with a monocle when I was a kid for one of my school home work projects, I remember trying to draw a perfect circle for it searching around my mums bedroom trying to find a small ring that would fit just right over his eye and trace over it. A pretty interesting listen, one thing we can’t forgot which is so true. Imagine the VR Simulation technology in 1000 years. It would be next level.
You likely just confused the Monopoly Man with images of Mr. Peanut who had a tophat (like MM) and a monocle. Most ME examples can be easily explained as a mixing up or misremembering of things
Think about this: if we pair simulations with stable diffusion and incredibly high levels of computation, the universe can be simulated with a simple set of mathematical functions.
It is an esoteric theory and difficult for most to understand. Thus, people mock what they do not understand in order to minimize it. The human ego is a powerful force.
@@tristang6223 but the catch is if we are living in a simulation everything you believe to be true is an illusion, thats the point he is making, you cant really prove its happening if it is... in your experience there is an entire human history and earth history and your own history, but how do you know that is real ? how do you know its not just simulated history and today is actually the first day of your existance...you can never know for sure... you could argue but books have been written, biology proves i have existed X amount of time or whatever, but if you bring in the argument that it is all there because its simulated...the biology and books mean nothing because the simulation would of simulated those too....and in that same line of thought you cant use our evolution to disprove simulation, because maybe we never did evolve and everything is simulated, you just believe we evolved as a species and created tech etc...but who says that actually happend and its not just implanted memory ?
No shit, he even said it was way back when, when the VR games were still shitty af. I had “fancy pricey vr “ in 2019, and it still sucked. This guys a loon
If we were living in a simulation, why would our designers want us to KNOW that we are living in a simulation. Its not like you have Kratos turning to the camera and telling us "I don't want to do this shit anymore, this is stupid"
It's actually a very good point which I haven't thought about before. VR doesn't have to be as realistic as the base reality, it just has to be realistic enough for you to forget that something more real exists.
Or your memory is wiped when entering this simulation (you start as a baby and have to learn everything from scratch) then when you go back, your original memory is restored along with the memory of the life you just lived in this simulation. Also we have 5 senses here but in base reality we might have 20 (or 100) so this might be a really dumbed down simulation but since we are inside with only the 5 senses, it is as real as it gets to us until we get out.
I think he's missing the key point of simulation hypothesis, which is everything is an NPC. There's no one hooked up to the "Matrix" on the other side.
I'm unsure if I am replaying the simulation in a different way. I genuinely think I was a fallschrimjaeger in WWII. German came extremely easy to me even though nobody near me speaks it, and I have memories of combat. I joined the US Army infantry and became a paratrooper. I might be stuck on repeat with different variables.
Deja Vu is an illusion, it happens when the left or the right side of your brain works a little bit slower. I got 1000 deja vu's in 5 days because i got so high it was scary. People 100 years ago didnt have the problems we have today and we don't live in a simulation
@@hereticalhobbydogs are for work and they are happiest doing that. What people have done to them is just sick. Also if you get attached to an animal more than humans (especially your own offspring) you need to seriously question your sanity.
The problem with this theory is that it assumes because we are simulated humans that the other end is a human or a body altogether. It could be some kind of eternal being wanting to know what a physical body feels like
how do you program what a physical body feels like without ever being in a physical body? also how are they getting the experience of a physical body while being inside digital code in a simulation, seems like the opposite direction.
Off subject, I'll take this opportunity to mention a conversation I had with a plumber. After hiring him, he walked into my bathroom and said as if speaking to the gods, "it smells like money in here." I wasn't expecting that, to say the least. I laughed my butt off, of course, but plumbers are interesting people.
I think it would be cool to find out that when you get old you are in a simulation and you get to return to the real world where you’ve been asleep as a teenager and you get a chance to live your younger years with the wisdom of an adult.
What if you wake up and you’re old and/or disabled, and you’ve been in the simulation (here) to escape THAT life…….. treasure what you’ve got while you’ve got it. ✌🏼
I’m telling you “Roy A Life Well Lived” that Morty plays at Chipz and Blitz is pretty much what we’re doing in real life right now. When someone finishes the level or dies it’s hilarious to watch them as they take the headset off and for a few seconds have absolutely no idea where they are and what happened. That’s followed by a huge sigh of relief when you realize that scary Earth place wasn’t real. Going from living in only 3 dimensions to the real world is an absolute mind fook and never gets old to experience. That’s why we keep playing
Well, the world in general has gone to shit in a hand basket.... makes total sense. And 'gone to shit' doesn't even begin to describe the crime ridden diarrhea shit holes that are ran by the democratic blue states.
But maybe heaven and hell really do exist and it's just basically version 2.0 where they put all the bad characters from the first simulation in one shitty simulation and put all the good characters in another cool utopian simulation. We're just living in some dude's college experiment.
this was a really interesting conversation and a flashback to the golden days of JRE guests that we've never heard of. I was super bummed when it ended.
This reminds me of one of my favorite theories, especially the memory part being possible memories from earlier simulations. Basically, its the theory that the universe is so vast and so old, that anything people can think of has existed at some point in the past or another part of the universe. Applying this theory to the simulation theory would be something like anything people can think of has existed or happened at some point in a previous simulation.
Open world. But its just a word and a label to re describe the same explanation given by religion. The closer everyone gets to "figuring it out" the more they will see how much it falls in line with religion. Its just words and labels trying to redefine the same arguments across all of time.
Am I the only one who has extremely vivid and sequence like bouts of dejavú?? I have had episodes where I can actively recall a specific conversation and every word said with people I have just met as it’s happening in real time.
I get it all the time, but really bad. Somebody will be about to say something and I’ll know what they’re going to say because it’s happened before, but then I’m convinced this exact scenario has happened multiple times over.
The point is, you don’t remember knowing anything else, so of course reality would feel like reality, until you experience reality differently like we all starting to do, with psychadelics and NDEs being the most sudden and obvious of ways to get to see something more real than “real”. When you have that experience of what is commonly referred to as awakening, well there is no hiding anymore behind lazy logic
You gotta imagine augmented reality to a point where you feel it as real. That’s what it would be like, they’d have to make it as real as possible to keep the simulation masked. It has to be complex, otherwise a microscope would expose it pretty quickly.
"There is the Tao that can be spoken of but it is not the eternal Tao, there is the Tao that can be named but it is not the eternal name." Call it Tao, God, Allah, a simulation designer...doesn't matter to me, doesn't change my life.
Rpg sim reminds me of Plato’s perspective that the soul must “participate” with the world if there is a freewill. Also believed that the soul(or mind but technically “soul”)can exist separately from the body!
It fits. There's the sweats (rich and famous), the toxic pkers ruining the world for everyone else, the regular players that just want to wind down after work while going about their ingame business (middle class), and the noobs who just can't "git gud" or catch a break to advance (the homeless and disadvantaged). Babies are Just LVL 1 new chars. And it's set to hardcore mode because nobody makes it to max level. Just like an MMO. Not being able to see much detail on other planets and the visible universe cut off is just a low LOD and visibility distance settings so it doesn't need to be rendered properly for better fps. Sleep is logging out.
If galaxies are hundreds of millions of light years away imagine how advanced those planets we’re seeing are.. since what we’re seeing was hundreds of millions of light years ago.. or maybe allllll the stars and galaxies we see don’t even exist anymore if you zoomed out enough
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="465">7:45</a> what Joe is talking about is known as "Last Thursdayism," the idea that the universe was created last Thursday, with the appearance of being much older - including your "memories" of things supposedly happening prior to last Thursday.
I was a detective for years, and have had bizzare premonitions and dreams forever that I never tell people about because they’ll think I’m crazy. I firmly believe we are in a simulation and someone exists outside of it.
I honestly believe this. My dad god rest his soul used to always tell me. “Life is a game. You have to play to win. The only thing is when you die it’s over. No resets.”
I still do not fully grasp the value of this concept because the light in the example went left or right by the celestial factors, regardless of whether we observe it or not, according to a vantage point, even if nobody looks.
@@MrGreasem He is trying to say that science suggests the light went both left and right (and up and down and sideways for that matter) simultaneously in parallel universes, then once we choose to observe the light, we are then unconsciously choosing which of those parallel universe to continue. Like @leocollins611 said, this scenario is famously known as Schrodinger's cat because the thought experiment proposes that the cat inside a box is both "dead and alive" until we open the box to see it. I believe recently there was some article that talked about observation in a lab of a subatomic quantum particle that existed in two states at once that suggests this theory may be true, but it's hard to say what is fake news these days ;)
I like to simulate multiple sandwiches at lunchtime. I make slight alterations to the sandwich code. Every time I run a new simulation I DO get deja vu. I think “this is very similar to the sandwich I remember experiencing just a moment ago” I eat for science
That’s what you think, but that doesn’t mean it’s true. That could just be what you were programmed to think. Your memories of learning that could’ve been installed while you were shut off, or, as you call it, “sleeping.” You don’t know what goes on when you’re asleep.
