RE: Let’s Not Rush To Thinking About Aliens Despite Strong “Wow” Like Signal From Any Nearby Star

in #science8 years ago

The concept that our universe is a simulation is becoming more popular. If that's the case, then it's possible that advanced civilisations wouldn't care too much for energy. Manipulating energy seems like a wasted effort, when you can manipulate information.

Sort:  

It's an interesting idea, and one which I struggle to wrap my mind around. If we were living in a simulation is it thought possible for us to manipulate the parameters of said simulation?

I guess it depends on what kind of simulation it is exactly, and which parameters. It's all data, in one form or another.
