What would you choose nothingness or experiencing the perfect simulation?

[noname223]

So the first option option would be the state after you died. Let's say the there is nothing. You simply don't exist.
Option 2 would be your dreamworld as a simulation. You are still alive but your brain is conneted to a machine that simulates everything you want. You can choose everything you want (except waking up) and live your perfect life. You could even choose to forget that you are in a simulation.

I probably would choose option 2. If this simulated life still sucks I simulate my death by dying in my sleep. There is is a similar philosophical question.
I am not really afraid about living in a simulation. Most people choose in this similar scenario living their own "normal" lives instead of a perfect simulation.
I am really unhappy in my life for me this simulation would be ideal.

I think I would just choose nothingness. I do not want to experience anything again. All I want is to not exist. There is nothing that I want from life really.

 

[deadverysoon]

i would prefer nothing instead of a fake reality.

 

[noname223]

i would prefer nothing instead of a fake reality.

But how do you know you are not already in a fake reality?

 

[Superdeterminist]

I would choose option 2, but I would also like to be able to forget that it's only a simulation, and be made to believe that it's the real deal, otherwise I think the knowledge that it's only a simulation would just eat away at me forever.

I like the truth even if it hurts. I'll take the nothingness. I mean nothigness isn't a bad feeling at all. She's there quiet without doing anything and if I don't exist, why should I even care?

good question wait.... ouch.... feels very real

 

[stygal]

I would prefer nothingness (since I had good or ~perfect~ times in this life and they made me feel just as empty).

I also find it interesting that "being in a simulation" is always perceived as something negative - maybe we are already in a simulation but that doesn't mean that the things I'm now experiencing aren't real to me.

 

[Walkingcorpse123]

I would like to pick the best day of my life and live it over and over again for eternity without ever realizing it.

 

[Cannedbones]

Option 2 sounds as if I were dreaming. If it felt like being in a peaceful dream and living the way I wanted to, Id definitely pick that.

nothingness.

 

[Snake of Eden]

I want to live in a simulation where I would repeat my life from the start without the predisposition to any of my physical or mental problems that I suffer from now. I want to be able to right my wrongs and make all the good decisions I wasnt able to make due to my diseases that clouded my mind and made it impossible for me to make the right choices. I really want to make myself and my family proud of me again. I will choose that.

 

[One day too late]

I think I will choose option 2. It'll be great to live a nice life even if it's a simulation as long as I don't know it is.

 

[Fakereality]

I would always choose option one, for me living in a simulation of any kind is a big immersion breaker, I am already living in a reality based on lies and deception don't want another one no matter how pretty or fun it is.

 

[ClownMe]

Nothingness.

 

[Phosphophyllite]

I don't want to be lied to anymore. I'd choose nothingness.

 

[everydayiloveyou]

Life is amazing and I love living. I'd love to live in the simulation.

I want to ctb because the simulation isn't possible, and nothingness is better than the pain and suffering associated with being mentally ill in this society. But nothingness itself is not what I want at all.

 

[Ligottian]

Never having been born, or even conceived, is my impossible to obtain gold standard.

I would choose 1 that I don't exist, nothingness . and I think that's will happen no matter what

Nothingness would be nice to experience, that is what monks try to achieve, a conscious state of nothingness

The creators could have programmed us to make the choices we have by pushing us towards the decisions we made
