In the news

My mum was fiddled by a priest when she was a kid, she was so fucked in the head she hung herself when I was 4. Don't have much any sympathy for fiddlers, or the clergy.

some helmet cam footage popped up on youtube but was taken down by a copyright request from red bull before I got to see it. hrumph.

I assume he was referring to the spot of (bat-shit crazy) casual racism.

I once got drunk with Hayseed Dixie. I woke up in a children's play-park in Stornoway.

I was probably very lucky not to be in the news.

My head hurts just thinking about this:

Universe may be a computer simulation

And some extra reading regarding the above:

Constraints on the Universe as a Numerical Simulation

Comes up in Iain M. Banks sci fi novels as a religon. With the interesting twist that the simulation will end, just as soon as a certian percentage of sentient beings are aware-of/believe-in 'the truth'.

Interesting, as it means that both enlightenment, and irradication, of non-believers. Are equally effective ways of increasing said percentage, and completing the simulation.

Spoiler warning much?!

Thank goodness that real religions don't think that way.

Negs all round.

Isn't it a tad obvious to suggest that our universe (the perceived system) can be categorised/understood (simulated) within our own understanding of it?

It's a fairly circular (hence compelling) thought, but is entirely unlikely in my opinion (as I also believe we will only ever be aware of a tiny fraction of the bigger picture)?

The theory rests on the likelihood of repeated simulations which doesn't seem that sound? If you removed the computer-based interpretation then essentially it's about linked universes (along any plain) and the only thing new here is the use of the word "simulation" and the neat way abstract limitations fit into that kind of model?

Is it running on Windows 2008 R2? Fuckkkkkkk

that explains A LOT
