Meh. I feel the same way about a virtual creator as I feel about an "Intelligent Designer" - or a god. If this was designed, then the designer was either an idiot or a drunk.
@ex0gen Possibly. It's hard to say though. It was something on the order of a trillionth of a second so it's conceivable there was some error. That said neutrinos supposedly don't have mass so they may be able to behave a little unusually, and of course there's always the possibility that some programs could be programmed to "skip pixels."
@JohananRaatz Yeah, I am with the idea of virtual reality. Realism is flawed. You really need to read a paper that I am working on where I attack realism. I am getting it ready for submission to a philosophy journal.
Enjoyed the video alot. However, i don't think pixelated spacetime or energy points to us being in a "simulation", as there are metaphysical reasons why time should be quantized.
However, i think it is foolish to call our reality a simulation. I personally believe, that reality may be made up of information, but that doesn't make it an illusion. It just makes information fundamental.
@MegaExelo Well virtual doesn't necessarily mean simulation. ;) (that will be the topic of an upcoming video)
Virtual can mean a simulation but also something similar to a dream. Information processes pretty much the same in both. This opens a can of worms about the imputted dreamer though. ;-)
Surely you josh, as Thomas Campbell is little more than a troll. C'mon get serious and stop effing around with morons. Are you not studying at university? Stop wasting your time with clowns like TC or Robert "Bob" Monroe.
@BlowDevilUp Well I only saw one or two videos of his. I don't know much more about him than that.
I was wanting you to see the Whitworth paper however. Google "universe as a computer" and "Whitworth." There's a tremendous resemblance between the weirdnesses of modern physics and the effects of information processing. And it's interesting to note that of all of the possible ways modern physics could have been weird it just happened to be weird in that particular way.
Another beautifully crafted and challenging video from JohananRaatz! If consciousness is required for observation and hence for "fixing" the simulation into a "reality," what constitutes consciousness? Certainly we, and chimps, dolphins, etc. possess consciousness. But do bacteria?
Point 3: That's so weird. In a dream, I've never actually felt like anything was behind me, unless I was being chased. Like, you know right now, you are aware that there is a wall, a picture, a desk, or whatever behind you. I don't get that in dreams. Whatever exists, exists relative to what my eyes see.
@aveyowyns What's freaky is that all of the laws of physics emerge completely from the laws of information processing, and information doesn't need to be processing on a material computer. So one could solve the mind/body problem by just getting rid of the body! Call it "eliminative immaterialism."

The maximum velocity was awesome, but hasn't the speed of light been observed recently to be broken? I think it was at CERN but I could be wrong.

The little snippets you offer are merely an exercise in confirmation bias. This does not serve a noble purpose, sadly.

Fascinating video. The paper you have linked below is even more so. If this isn't solid proof of what you've been saying, I don't know what is.

I am curious of how concept of energy would fit into this.
