false

It seems to be finite, but is it? For realz? *shrugs*

it totally can

Anything can be anything with the power of friendship!

The *stuff* beyond the universe could be infinite.

But it's not space.

Maybe, appears to be true, but there's an area where we cannot detect.

thats like saying quantum entanglement is impossible

Quantum entanglement is proven.

And we're limited by how blue and red shifts on energy works to how far we can see.

Theorized

The universe is finite.

Prove it

and then turns out we're in a simulation

So, there's known universe and unknown universe.

We are in a simulation.

It doesn't need to be proven empirically, it is simply not possible.

That we know the unknown exists, but know nothing about it.

There's a boundary between the universe and whatever the rules are beyond spacetime.

Well, to be fair, we *assume* the unknown exists

Society itself is a simulation on how humans "should" behave, a social construct is inherently simulated.

Not like a physical boundary

So.. Platonic Ideals, anyone?

But a front between *beyond* and reality.

We live in a country

For the purposes here, universe is the part of *what is* that belongs to our rules

Of matter and energy

Ah, so you're using that working definition. Good to know.

Except for dark matter and quantum mechanics

those dont follow our proposed rules

We live in a society.

Yes, because it's nonsense to try to say what could exist beyond spacetime.

I 'unno anymore, Goodwood.

The mores have disintegrated.

Yall must've never done LSD

Simply put, there's *beyond*, and our reality, the shit we can measure, interact with, observe.

*beyond* shouldn't be considered part of the universe, nor reality, it just is, and the universe is all the matter and energy.

And other goodies.

NQ is claiming what I said as well - the *unknown*, *unknowable* and *known*.

and it exists only in our minds... which are part of the universe.

We can't say time or space or anything like that exist beyond, just that there is a part that is universe, and a part that isn't. The isn't is infinite
