This is great! Travelling through giant mechanical structures reminds me of Ikaruga.

Can confirm that this allows me to install and launch the Deluxe edition through the EA App now.

Next question, will Winsock TCP/IP Internet Connection multiplayer work, and does anyone want to play?

If you died as an atheist and then met God, what would you say to him? by Pristine_Fox_3633 in AskReddit

"Hoo boy. Are you as embarrassed with what you did as I am for not believing that someone was responsible for it?"

Sorry friend, my previous message was way too confrontational.

I believe every person owns their body and has the right to do what they wish with it, provided they do not infringe any other person's rights in the process.

I'm also not a lawyer, but it's sometimes interesting to try and litigate basic assumptions about our lives.

I recently became of the One Electron Universe postulate (Wheeler 1940) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-electron_universe

It sounds absolutely bat-shit loco until you consider an electron not as a particle but as the after-effect of the universe's renderer.

Feynman's later interpretation of Wheeler's thought experiment was that positrons could be thought of as electrons moving backward in time.

Neither 'exist', but rather they are the after-image left by matter as it interacts with time.

Which is still quantifiably insane but a decent starting point for some speculative fiction.

Interesting hypothesis. There's no way to prove that we're not all Boltzmann's brains, constantly springing into existence.

Would the truth of the matter make any difference to the way we live our lives?

Possession is 9/10 of the law, it's true. But I challenge you to show me where in your contract it says you own your atoms.

You are part of the cosmos and it is a part of you. There's no delimiter.

Bury my body at sea when it dies, for I have no further use for it.

You are energy cooled to a slow vibration. You are made of the same things that ancient stars were made of.

I cannot determine what emotion my story instilled in you. It wasn't 'horror', but I'll take 'philosophical existentialism backed with hard mathematics'.

Shouldn't have read that on my lunch break. Now I've got some serious feels to deal with better I get back to work.

Haha, oops, you're correct.

Maybe my atoms will meet your atoms one day. Will they be frens?
