    Bolzmann brain moment.

    The important part is the paradoxical nature of that a bolzmann brain, as far as the universes lifespan is concerned, is more likely to emerge than a habitable universe.

    It’s simple maths. There’s a higher chance that you’re a bolzmann brain than real

      I wouldn’t consider it simple math, nor accurate math.

      It is a bold statement that makes assumptions about underlying probabilities that are simply impossible to quantify realistically. Even more so as the theory was developed well before computers and human space exploration.

      It is an intriguing thought experiment, but not an established scientific theory.

        Yeah, this bit always gets me too when people say that we’re statistically almost certain to live in a simulation.

        Ah, statistics. The branch of mathematics famous for being reliable and accurate when extrapolating from a single point of data.

        Shh it will all be over in a femtosecond (your structure can not be maintained longer than one instance of sentience before it dissipates back into a cloud of gasses)

          Not necessarily, Random fluctuations could also produce a structure in which the Boltzmann brain could survive. Which could give it plenty of time to imagine our shitty universe.

        If you were a Bolzmann brain, your memories of reality would likely be much less consistent, probably akin to a dream.

    Interesting note here. Nothing about this is true unless, as stated, xyz is true. Along that same line of logic, in an infinite applesauce packet, I’m actually a salmon, holds true as well. However, because there is no impending dread to it, that can affect the reader, irrational or otherwise, and thus, it is disregarded, but equally as nonsensical by measure.

    Good, maybe one of them will be clever enough to run a timing attack on the sub-structure of reality and rm -rf the universe
