Reliving the same 5 memories over and over again will be hell, regardless of how good those memories were.

[@jonathanneal6611]

Not if you're not aware that it's happening. Who's to say for example that you haven't just been living today over and over for billions of years? Every morning you wake up with the same memories of just having lived the day before, you go about the same activities, at some point read this comment and find it a little silly, then later you go to bed only to wake up with the same memories of yesterday and go about the whole thing all over again. To an outside observer it'd seem to be your own little hell, but to you it's just a regular day.

It kind of trivializes the decision if you can pick A then decide you want to do B later. Same thing with dying and going to option B. It seems like people are being pushed really hard towards B, although maybe that's what the writers were going for

[@14s0cc3r14]

If the simulation continues, I don’t see why the majority of people wouldn’t choose A. A is to continue living and experiencing the world, even if fake. B is just a pleasant suicide. Edit: Also, the explanation of ending the simulation to “save resources” doesn’t make too much sense if some people will continue living there and others will have their own small simulations, I can’t imagine that would use less resources.

[@simpsonovci95142]

you need to simulate the whole world(universe) with all the thermodynamics and physics, where you can choose to replay 7 bilion people their best memories in loop. I think the second option saves money

[@user-eb3nl7sk7q]

No software updates for option A. 😃

[@DGneoseeker1]

I'm unclear about what exactly option A means. Is it simply that the server continues to run but if it breaks down nobody fixes it? Or is it literally every individual picking option A gets stuck in an entirely empty world? That's what Sarah seems to be planning for... but it makes no sense. That would probably take more resources to run than the simulation as it is. Also, why the hell was she getting upset about feeling isolated if she wants to live alone in an empty world? Edit: I see. So apparently it's not that you end up in an empty world. It's just that the only other people around are the ones who chose to stay. But if that's the case then theoretically everyone in the world could have chosen to stay.

I thought life was a simulation last year. Crazy stuff. I ultimately realized life is meaninglessness

[@maxhachmann1098]

That actually is a good thing and not very true.

[@michaeldavid6832]

You have asserted that life is meaninglessness. But your assertion contradicts itself. You wouldn't be able to form any idea of "meaning" if the universe were meaningless. To assert "meaninglessness" you must assume that the universe is without some tendency or trend... clearly that's false. But let's dig further. We can look at the elemental trends of this universe to extrapolate the purpose of this universe. This universe has a few properties which define it. The first, is "being" -- the presence of something rather than nothing. The second, is time or "persistence" -- everything in the universe exist throughout a continuum of "being". Third, is "experience"-- everything in the universe affects everything else in the universe in and those affects yield permanent consequences. The purpose of this universe, is to experience. Experience is the fundamental meaning of this universe. But experience is an open-ended meaning -- and I'm glad it's so. It means that we can set up our own higher-level meaning and pursue it. The universe is our playground. You required, at minimum, 3 levels of meaning in order to fomulate the concept of "meaningless" and communicate it to others. "Being", "persistence", and "experience". Even pondering and conveying the question of "what's the meaning of life" implies that you've given value (meaning) to the process of being interested, asking questions, seeking answers, and communicating answers to others. Seeking a meaning to life implies that you've given meaning to the search for meaning. For you, the meaning of your life is to search for meaning. But higher level meanings are deliberately left for humanity to create for ourselves. This was what sentience granted to homo sapiens -- we possess the power to construct meaning which is above merely being a passive experiencer of the universe. Homo sapiens create our own meaning -- this isn't a bug, it's a feature and the greatest gift the universe has bestowed upon any animal of this world. Most of Earth's creatures are locked into meanings which they can never understand or quesiton. They're left with the low-level meaning of "experience", and nothing more. They can't construct any meaning for life other than to eat, reproduce, and die... they can't even construct the concept of "meaning". For humans, the question of "what's the meaning of life?" was never going to have a closed-ended answer. We're the only species that can generate personal meaning instead of being stuck with the instinctive and collective meaning which all other animals are forced to exist within. Of course we'd never discover there was no meaning imposed upon us at the cognitive level. Our quest for meaning was always going to discover that there is no tyrannical imposition of some external cognitive process. No loving "god" would allow a creature to form it's own meaning but still impose his own in place of the individual's. None of us would want a closed-ended meaning to our lives. Such a life wouldn't be worth living to my mind. Your feeling that life is meaningless is a side effect that there is meaning to your life -- and that meaning is related to the search for meaning. Let's look at it this way. Meaning is open-ended for humans. To ask the question, "what's the meaning of life" is to ask "what's the meaning of a computer program". Of itself, a generic program has no meaning. It only acquires meaning when its given purpose. Fortunately for mankind, we can give ourselves our own set of purposes. Those purposes contain the meaning of our lives in the same way a program's directives imbue it with meaning. Meaning is the playground of the individual. It's the gift which each of us is privileged to construct and savor in our own ways with our own means. --- I know what I've just written can create a sea change in the thoughts of others. Years ago, when I first conceptualized these ideas they recontextualized my entire life and removed many barriers to understanding a vast amount of this reality. It affects your entire POV of the universe when you realize that the base-level meaning is all around us -- in the way that matter and energy exists, persists, and interacts. But a conscious meaning is purpose-built to be an individual choice that requires an act of intention. If meaning were a set of rails upon which our lives could never deviate, what kind of life would that be? In my estimation, it would not be a life worth living.

Why does a simulation need to save resources

[@sseip8131]

It's like playing cities skylines, And have the average PC to run it. First in the beginning you have used zero resources and left only with an empty map. Building your first town, this uses the first chunk of your pc possible resources. From town to small city...small city to big...Big to in the end a metropol. This all using resources, the pc gets slower. To free up the resources to use for another "reality" called map ,you terminate the world you have build and begin again. Now think of it the same pc is used with more people. 4 of 5 using small amount of resources to build only a small town. You on the other hand build the big city that using a lot of the resources that the other players cant use anymore. To give them the possibility to expand you terminate your city and give the freed up resources to the other players so they can expand from town to small city. and to be on topic again, if our world is really a simulation.....they really F***d up👽🤓

[@PistonAvatarGuy]

You're looking at things from a very myopic perspective. This girl knew that everything that she loved and cared about would be destroyed because most people are careless and irresponsible, and that's exactly what happened. So while this girl may have been a bit of an annoyance to people on a small scale, most people were busy literally destroying the world. It WAS their fault that everything was going to be destroyed, not her's. In my view, there's also absolutely no reason why every single human being on Earth can't have their basic needs met, but people allow the wealthy to maintain the world in such a state that this isn't possible, so I'd say that this is another reason why the majority of people simply don't deserve respect... beyond common courtesy, anyway. And, really, I'm a bitter and angry person, but people started bullying me at a very young age, and I was witness to many of humanity's worst behaviors (not related to the bullying), so that first impression has been impossible to shake. I just don't know how to look at someone without seeing all of the bad in human beings anymore, I wish that I did know. So, the bottom line is: It shouldn't be surprising that the people who see humanity for what it is have no desire to fit in with the rest of humanity.

This movie really gives me few reasons to like her. She's cold to people and pushes away others because she doesn't like other people's personalities.

She knows that society is pointless and yet does nothing to live a better life style.

[@LeMacMac]

to me she sounds like a person suffering from depression and with avoidant tendencies. of course she thinks life is meaningless, of course she had difficulty finding and bonding with the friends that are interested in her, of course she does "nothing". But she is doing something, going for 2 years of therapy is her something, even if the therapist is not the best match for her. this is her doing something, we all do what we can.
