It could' be that there are more non simulating base realities than now. I guess the idea is, even if there are these other civilizations, there's still one base universe. And so maybe that's what covers that like, you're not a talking about your civilization when you're doing this calculation. But our, your universe as a role universe, the one we're like,. or this isn't an objection exactly, but are we creating all these simulations? And how does that work? So does it assume that determinism is false? Or is it just that they are manipulating variables for some reasonithink, i think.
David and Tamler explore the many variations of simulation theory, the view that our universe is just a computer generated model created by an advanced civilization that has reached “technological maturity.” What does the growing popularity of simulation theories reveal about contemporary life? Are any of the arguments for simulation theory compelling or are they just post-hoc ways of justifying what you already believe on faith? If we are living in a simulation, does that mean we can go around killing people? Would it change anything about how we should live? Rodney Ascher’s (Room 237, The Nightmare) excellent documentary "A Glitch in the Matrix" gets the discussion going.
Plus the return of the VBW does conceptual analysis segment - a careful, rigorous, systematic inquiry into the concept “cringe.”*
*Note: if you think the opening segment is itself cringe, that’s because we’re doing seventh dimensional Zoomer meta shit and you just didn’t get it.
