If we are simulations of a super intelligent alien civilization, they will probably have a reason for letting us get involved in a new world war — Hillary
Are you convinced you are a simulation? — universeness
Nonsense. — universeness
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
