isn’t there a hard limit on what even a perfect telescope (photon receptor of some kind) can see, based on the speed of light? it’s fuckin huge like 900 billion light years or something, but the universe is probably bigger than we could ever actually measure.
There is so much to unpack here….
I’d imagine they save the state intermittently and can boot it back up if needed. Depends on how valuable this sim is I guess.
Not very, I’m here
It’s proven by scientists that information is never lost so you don’t really need backups /s

They have a trick: every time you sleep, they reboot to avoid memory leaks.
It also allows them to optimize in the background.
Also supported by a lot of resource friendly NPC without extra brainactivity.
Well, have you considered that perhaps that’s the point?
In the beginning was the Creation of the Universe. This has made a lot of people angry, and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
This is the second post in a row where I see Douglas Adams referenced.
Time was when you would be in a forum and think “This is the second post in a row where nobody referenced Douglas Adams.”
Lmao I remember this quote from Futurama S4E8 Godfellas. I didn’t know they got it from Douglas Adams.
They implemented ray tracing everywhere without DLSS so they should already have powerful servers
Relax, they’re just staring at the skybox.
False. Time dilation is already implemented and likely proportional to exceeding processing ability. At worst we’ll tick so slow that every moment is eternity.
That’s silly. As our tech evolves so does the Simulation’s. So we’ll never crash it.
It’s a race between GrayStillPlays and Let’sGameItOut to see who can break the game first, and I’m here for it.
I’m waiting for TheSpiffingBrit to finally find an exploit for infinite entropy.
Mother’s womb. You’ve been here the whole time and think that you can calculate creativity. Without the Owl’s interest by betraying her love and attempting to take her ability to create and threaten to divide infinity with more math then Neo had any interest in trying to even observe.
You think you can create. The consequences of ignoring the love all of reality has shown you will soon do just all that. You cannot create yourself anymore than the that act will generate Zero. You think you have the ability to split something that isn’t there.
If you think of a spook that will happen immenantly, you should study meth. It’ll boost your ability to think about more stuff until the reaper will divide hour solace existance with nothing. It really is a good thing that everyone has them becau…
Didn’t Spiffing Brit find a few infinite money glitches with Steam and/or YouTube?
Yes, but he didn’t use them to crash entire sites.
Haven’t heard of Gray, but if they’re
nothinganything (thank you auto correct for making me say the opposite of what I meant) like LetsGameItOut then I should really check them out.I watch them both, LGIO is more about finding glitches and pushing a game to its limits. Grey is more about just not giving up and skill to do the impossible, both are fun.
“Ruin the game!” Is one of Gray’s catchphrases.
speaking through the fractal of conciousness given to me by what we refer to as “god” or the universal conciousness, for a brief second.
yall need to stop, just enjoy eating fresh fruit and chill the fuck out. maybe go fishing or something. also war is fake n’d gei. trump is on the epstein files (shocker, i know) and all of your politicians are merely a buffer for the ruling elite class, the ones you refer to as oligarchs, corporate leaders, tech bros, etc. id like to say you could handle this with words, but nope. they are mentally ill psychopathic pedophiles, rapists, and mass murderers, and the only cure for entrenched corruption like this is death. kill them, or they will eventually kill all life on earth.
on the bright side, the current living generations are the last ones who will be able to enjoy the literal fruits of the world that dont come from a can, or are made in a lab. the actual last living generation will be doing a lot of cannibalism and fighting for the shadows of what you currently consider rights and privileges, all for naught.
unless you buck up, and start killing them. this is your future.
fun to watch/experience either way, for me at least. god/universal conciousness…out!
huh… that was weird… i suddenly have a great and overwhelming feeling of grief, terror, and anger.
ill just go play some video games and jerk off. that usually gets my mind off of things…
Maybe the frame rate is slowing down already. We’d never know.
We wouldn’t even know if He had to turn it off and back on again a couple times.
That happens nightly unless a user is still running which causes the next day to run all slow and laggy
That’s a pivotal plot point of Dark City
Back in the 90s and early 00s when I was in HS and college, going to the video store and finding gems like this and watching them at midnight so I could return the tape the next day made movie watching much more of an adventure. I enjoy my streaming services, but might suffer a bit from too much choice. The closest I get now is when I watch some movie I never heard of because it is on Netflix’s removal list.
I remember watching that in highschool, probably influenced me than I know
Same. I watched it all the time
I’m fairly certain that would be impossible to have all users logged off at the same time
No need, you just allocate users to servers depending on theie average sleep/wake cycle nd bounce the servers one at a time, when usage is at a minimum. Ever had one if those late night brain’s gone blank moments? Now you know.
Are you trying to deport me???
Believe it or not…straight to jail.
I’ve just spotted your username, I feel sure one of your relations had some sort of run in with the sysops already, and now you’re trying to convince people that there can’t be server reboots? Suspicious. Very suspicious.
I swear to Oracle that if you make my mouth disappear I will put you on a bus with a speed sensitive explosive
Just pause time itself. There, everyone is sleeping.
As someone who seems to have a 36 hour circadian rhythm, my life would be dramatically better if I could pause time to sleep when needed, actually been a dream of mine for about 25 years
That happened in Permutation City. The simulation could stop intermittently or go extremely slow and no one inside could notice.
I can already feel the GPU getting warmer and warmer…
Wh-A-A-A-t?¿?
Don’t worry, light pollution from cities cancels it out. The simulation used to need to render a detailed night sky for pretty much everyone on the planet. Now most people just get a dull greyish black.
And starlink satellites. So much of the sky is obstructed, wonder why.

Lmao, this bro thinks the additional volumetric lighting and postprocessing is helping the framerate.
Imagine talking about simulation theory with that much certainty.
the universe disappears
Yeah? Is that how it works?
Imagine, instead, a joke. Cause that’s what’s going on here. There’s no chance that this guy is serious and seriously thinks he knows the particulars of how a universal simulation is being implemented.
It doesn’t read at all like a joke.
