I was sitting here thinking to myself I can handle that everything I know is a simulation then I got a cold shudder thinking that the simulation could be running on an alien version of windows!!
Maybe the 21st of this month is the alien equivalent of the millenium bug :frown:

That can't be right. If it was, then the bank would not take your house back when yo default on the loan. They would not have lost anything....
Actually, the banks would lose plenty if they didn't take back your house. First, they would lose the commonly held illusion that the money ever existed in the first place. And then, soon after that, they would lose the upper hand in this game in which they are permitted to make a profit margin off money that never existed in the first place. And when an illusion is all you have to work with, then you're losing everything when people come to realize it is indeed an illusion, but it's an elite group who gets to reap the greatest benefit from it.
The biggest problem average people have in discussing economics is that there are actually two main types of economics, yet bankers like to pretend there is only one. The first type is the day-to-day economics of your pocket, or microeconomics. Let's call that one "kitchen table economics" because that's the type of money-talk people have around their kitchen table. You have so much money in your pocket, so you can buy only so many Propeller chips for your family. Second is macroeconomics, which is where things get spooky. Bankers play by the macro-, but then insist everybody else obey the micro- so they can reap a profit out of thin air. But they never really like to admit they're all living by the magic of the macro stuff.
How best to explain the difference between micro and macro?
Think of microeconomics as DC voltage. Things are static. There are only so many volts and so many amps to go around. Everything adds up like the pennies in your pocket. It's V=IR without any whacky phase shifts and so forth.
But macro is more like AC voltage. As soon as electrons (money) start moving around and circling around, odd things start to happen. You get resonances, you get peaking effects, imaginary numbers come into play, things like voltages, etc. start to rise up seemingly as though by magic. To somebody who's only familiar with DC currents, those amazing things done with AC look like witchcraft. It's the old Edison vs. Tesla problem.
The banking establishment knows they are pulling a trick on everybody, they know they are operating on AC, but they just don't want you to know it because they are sorely afraid you'd then hold them accountable to the illusive social constructs that make their massive fortunes possible. They like you to continue to believe that they are making money off of money that actually exists, but they're selling everybody illusory hotdogs and phantom french fries but insisting you pay with hard currency off your kitchen table.

I've often thought that Bill Gates was from an alien civilization from somewhere out in space. I offer this picture of the early employees of Microsoft as proof.
Bill, if your reading this. I'm just kidding.

They exist!!! now lets see the USAF in denial saying that they are just weather balloons

Yes, when you had to take a wheel barrel of money into a bakery for a loaf of bread...

Bon appetit!

Bill was geeky enough to make a BASIC for the Intel 8080 and hence his fortune. But as far as I remember many others could and did do such things.
There was a time that physicist had better things to do.
What kind of processor is our computer running on? A VM inside another VM and so on....
