Love how in NASA's official images, the ISS and other satellites are curved.

do 'who' understand 'what'?

Fish eye lense.

@he vibin tho Whats your thoughts on a simulated universe

"Simulation earth", "simulation universe" it really doesn't matter what you call it since either way the whole thing is simulated

Have you ever heard of the Fourier Series?

"at least one of the following propositions is true: (1)
the human species is very likely to go extinct before reaching a
“posthuman” stage; (2) any posthuman civilization is extremely unlikely
to run a significant number of simulations of their evolutionary history (or
variations thereof); (3) we are almost certainly living in a computer
simulation. It follows that the belief that there is a significant chance that
we will one day become posthumans who run ancestor‐simulations is
false, unless we are currently living in a simulation." I agree with the 3rd proposition @ShyGuyfromUpHigh

Typical

becoming a posthuman stage means that we will eventually simulate a universe of our own

It still doesn't matter though

@Dear Mason go to sleep

@he vibin tho thats the way i look at it

It assumes that a civilization, which could have been created who the hell knows how many years ago, is simulating us

what happens if the 'real' earth gets destroyed and all the computers the run the simulation get destroyed along with it?

that would suck

I don't think that would ever happen

No it doesnt. It states that there is a probability of a previous civilization that make have acheived transcendency @Dear Mason

The earth is hollow.

i think they create universes for fun

Possibly.

Where did that "previous civilization" come from? @he vibin tho

Facts my G

Who created/what created the them? Legitimate question

We need to accept that there may have been far more advanced civilizations before us.

if you want to know what I think, a far more mature alien race genetically engineered humans into existence approximately 445000 years ago

Maybe they aided in building the pyramids and other places.

If you read the paper: It states that this post-civilization couldve essentially came from anywhere in the universe (Who made them?) - possibly another previous civilization

They needed a slave race to dig up gold for them. Why else are humans always attracted to gold?

Well the universe will eventually die, possibly a simulation would seem like a salvation effort of somekind

@he vibin tho natural selection of universes . each universe creates one more advanced than the last

maybe some go wrong

Thats what i always thought too

All your making the simulation theory out to be is a cop-out for "where did we come from"

lol

What happened to those aliens? @SunRazor

Unbelievable

No.... you are trying to fall back on a point we arent making. We are simply stating that it is a POSSIBILITY

^^^^

Laws were eventually passed that forbid them from interfering with the natural course of the development of human civilization.

Its like saying if I were a religious person and said "God possibly made us, I didn't say he did for sure but probably"
