Episode notes
Speaker 1
ass. But
Speaker 2
you know it's going to break. Like, that's going to break. Part of the fun.
Speaker 1
Part of the fun. The risk. Yeah. Well, they're coked out of their fucking minds, dude. They don't know what they're doing. This is the 80s in Miami. Holy shit, dude. Yeah, and there was more banks per capita in Miami at the time. I don't know if it's still the case, but more banks in Miami per capita than anywhere else in the country. Because it was all just moving in that yayo son moving in that yayo
Speaker 2
it was a cocaine city that was where it was probably somewhat common to find like a bag of coke on the beach right that was where
Speaker 1
you have
Speaker 2
to get your kid yeah your kid would bring you a bag of coke like
Speaker 1
seashells you've
Speaker 2
seen cocaine cowboys
Speaker 1
right yes oh my god it's so and both one and two both are equally good dude i've heard that story
Speaker 2
is so insane i mean again like the i would never i i'm too much of a pussy to live that kind of lifestyle but when you think about the possibility that we do get interfaced in some way or another with these new computers that are just right around the corner, we will be able to simulate experiences like that. Yes.
Speaker 1
I
Speaker 2
will definitely, I would be into simulating the experience. And then when you consider, yeah, but you're going to simulate the experience, you know, it's a simulation. At some point, you're gonna to be like, you know what? Let's just turn that off where I know it's a simulation. You know what I mean? We would all be doing that shit. Right. And I don't just mean like literally like, I mean, at some point you've done 20,000 lifetimes. You've experienced what it's like to be George Washington, Genghis Khan. You've experienced what it's like to be Joan of Arc. You've experienced being one of Jesus's disciples.
Speaker 1
Imagine if that's one person and that's your backstory. That you've done all of those things. What a timeline you're on.
Speaker 2
That's going to be everybody. That's going to be everybody. Because it's going to be fake. Well, I mean, is it? Just plug into it. That's where it gets really... Right. Is it? Is it gonna be what is reality anyway and what is data right what is data that's the real question because it's like how much of data can we recover from light and if we get faster than light travel can we get ahead of light we know that when we take a picture that's just light so if we can get ahead of light and we can go faster than light if we go exponentially faster than light, theoretically, you're basically moving into the future, I guess. Then couldn't you take pictures of Earth in the past? If you could take pictures of Earth in the past, why couldn't you recreate them with this new technology? There's your time machine. You don't have to worry about fucking up the timelines. You're just taking pure data, having it interpolated by whatever the next computer is after quantum computers, right? And then simulating that reality and traveling into it as whoever you want to be. I mean, it's pure hedonism, you know? It's like right now we think of hedonism as fucking a great meal, making some money, nice car, red wine. But future versions of hedonism could really just be like, I just want to be a dinosaur for 50 years. Yeah,
Speaker 1
I mean for sure. Well, there's gonna be look think about how many people play video games most of the day Like how many young guys so many young guys with no girlfriends one hundred percent? You're playing some kind of video game all the time with your friends. There you go And you're probably having the most fun you're ever gonna have in your life. So enjoy it.
