The Boltzmann brain

The Boltzmann brain thought experiment suggests that it might be more likely for a single brain to spontaneously form in a void, complete with a memory of having existed in our universe, rather than for the entire universe to come about in the manner cosmologists think it actually did.

There are other countries in the world that have elections apart from the US. More of them than ever before in one year are having them in 2024.

I also like the phrase "rot economy", though it does reach a little wider

You know that immigration is a net positive for every western nation right? People coming to a country wanting to make a new life contribute to a its society and economy. They also help populations keep growing as birthrates are falling. It would be nice to see these sorts of arguments made more though, if that's what you mean?

More fuck you fascists than world, but I'll allow it

Defensive much? I find myself being very suspicious of this opposing narrative. I'm not up to speed on this these days, but I remember Keza MacDonald being generally outstanding in her betrayal portrayal of events in video games culture.

Why stop there? Emblazon it onto the irises of passersby with a high-powered laser, so it's scarred into their vision permanently.

It's highly likely, but the getting there is definitely worth it. The game is half the story though. It feels like it stops in the middle, albeit after a significant enough plot point to give you some satisfaction. The game is incredible though and I'd definitely take that version over nothing at all.

The first game I played that really wanted to talk about racism and it decided to spend it's time saying is "black people can be bad too". I didn't think much of it then and I don't now.

I've been waiting a long time for Titan Fall 3. That's what you mean right? It couldn't be anything else could it? Definitely not.

I actually quite like this idea. Or we could start using number base 12 instead of 10 everywhere else.

This is clearly sarcasm. I assume the down votes are actually in favour of climate change?

Which one of the 4 remakes/reboots? (discounting the 5 sequels of course)

Oh no. I didn't need to know about the Svalboard. I thought I'd got to endgame with the Glove80. 😬

Ha. They have some of the most hackneyed dialogue of any Sony AAA game by a sizable margin. Well written they are not.

I fuckin love that film though. The Rock's best performance. The brief moment of transphobia can fuck right off though.

Minirig mini 2.👌

This doesn't solve the problem. If the universe is indeed infinite then there are infinite cases of our evaluation and infinite identical yous out there. If the Boltzmann brain hypothesis is true though, there are vastly "more" of those. It's a larger infinity, making it much more lively you are a Bultzmann brain than a full physical person.

Too late for that. There are some spectacular images of Trump as the king fascist emperor of man out there with no hint of irony. It's quite something to see how much people don't get it.

Don't be such a drag man. Enlightenment comes from acceptance.

"Say John from Texas is dying of hunger. He asks me for food, but I refuse. If John dies, is it my fault? Arguably, I merely allowed him to die, which while not exactly benevolent, isn’t exactly murder either. Now imagine that John doesn’t ask for food, but goes off to the market, where he’ll find plenty of people willing to exchange their goods for work that he can do in return. This time though, I hire a couple of heavily armed baddies to block his way. John dies of starvation a few days later. Can I still claim innocence?"

I pre-order it, but only started playing it last month. Well worth the wait.

So just to point this out again, we all know they're terrible because they're an incredibly racist troll too right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpH3O6mnZvw
