Same as a dream!

ATS REALLY needs to fix its crappy search function. lmao

Just keep an eye on the New Threads section - click on the "new" button, the second button over from the "home" button in the ATS tool bar.

Yup, good info. I also use the "recent" tab across the top to keep up with ongoing threads and new posts.

Or course the universe is a hologram. But it's constructed by the observations and perspectives of all the living things in it. That's hard to quantify mathematically.

That's why when you die, without you there to observe it an bring it from virtuality to reality, the universe ceases to exist.

But that would involve the universe going "Poof!" several times a second!

Not from your perspective. From your perspective it seems coherent and consistent. But when you die, your component of the universe ceases to exist, and without you in it to observe it, then there's nothing making it real (to you). So it ceases to exist.

If you die before me, it doesn't really affect the overall universe that much. But if I die before you, the universe will wink out of existence, including you, because I won't be around to observe anything.

Another way of saying it is that when the Observer dies, the wave function collapses...yes?
