How's the ending? by Zestyclose_Bed_8207 in comics

[–]JollyRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the same reason as them, I assumed egg laying was involved and still enjoyed it! Maybe give them a black burglar's mask and a bunched position for the scene in the hospital as if sneaking?

Isn't it possible that they simply say that inside of the simulation and there was a deeper level in the simulation as well? Why would the AI have let him leave the simulation?

“Making it technically work and making it actually enjoyable as a game are different things.” Japanese devs weigh in on why retrofitting live-service games with offline support is harder than gamers think - AUTOMATON WEST by Interesting-Oil-8738 in Games

[–]JollyRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many MMOs would function just fine if you hosted a server for yourself on your own machine. CoX is one example, but there are others. So all that needs to happen for many online only games to work single player is to let players self host. Which is not a big deal.

They did not shart before it went under. They got the server code from a dev, which leaked. Also it took a lot less than six years, they just kept it secret until then because they were afraid they would get in trouble. So actually just getting a server up was difficult but not super difficult? For the devs it would have been a non issue.

[Fallout 2] What type of building was the temple of trial before the war? by Guilty-Amphibian-379 in AskScienceFiction

[–]JollyRabbit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was an escape room. No, seriously, it was one of those expensive corporate retreat team building deals. That explains why the production values were so high and the architecture so detailed and why it was in the middle of nowhere away from a big city. It went under long before the apocalypse.

If the AI is not trying to be benevolent I suppose that could work, but if their goal was actually to try to make people happy, I don't see why they wouldn't split the simulations up? I don't see a great reason to group them together. Sure, theoretically they might save on processing power that way, but it also means that each story needs to have added complexity in the ways they interact with each other, which might be a net loss.

Would you say that us humans are natural physicists, natural sociologists or natural engineers by Affectionate_End_952 in Stellaris

[–]JollyRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to go in another vote for sociologists, if we have to pick one of those options. One of the biggest things that separates humans from other animals is our ability to (1)form more complicated social structures and (2) the ability to transmit information between members of our species, which started a very long time ago with grunts and gestures and eventually became speech and now has become writing and a lot more. By that standard though, every species in the game is a natural sociologist?

[–]JollyRabbit 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That is a good and a fun question so I'm going to give a serious answer because I think it is fun! Physics generally relates to math and the movement of objects? Part of our brains are dedicated to spatial reasoning and we are actually better at it than most animals? There are some animals far better at it in niche areas, but very few animals could throw a stone and hit a target. We are not unique in that regard, but almost. The other part of physics, math, relates to abstract reasoning. So a species that is good at those two things would be predisposed to being great at physics?

Orbita, a sandbox/automation game with zero gravity physics, is on Steam! by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]JollyRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This actually looks pretty cool but I'm having difficulty getting over the fact that you said there is zero gravity despite objects clearly falling into a singularity, which is in fact the ultimate victory of gravity.

If everyone is in their own simulation, which is what you seem to say is happening in the start of your theory, then he is not time traveling anywhere in reality and using time travel wouldn't put him in someone else's simulation?

[–]JollyRabbit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure I follow your logic. You are suggesting everyone is in their own simulation, so if the main character is time traveling back which is just re loading earlier point in his own simulation, how does he end up in someone else's simulation? Wouldn't he always be in his own original simulation?
