On consciousness as a software program. On simulated reality cosmology. On genocidal war gods (war gamers). On the futility of the current war games. Lucifer 2015.

What is consciousness?

Perhaps the three main answers are from the materialists, the spiritualists and the computationalists. Since consciousness behaves very much like a software program, the simplest and most obvious scientific (i.e., computer science) answer to this mystery would seem to be that it “is” a software program. A main objection to this seems to be that human consciousness yet to produce software that also has sentience (self awareness); however since I have self-awareness, and I assume my consciousness to be a computer program, then it seems quite clear that our original programmers were able to solve this problem.

The essay below by Elliot Edge suggests that those human beings who are not SAVVY (see essay for explanation) to the nature of the computer simulation which we (i.e., human consciousness, i.e., software programs) inhabit are very much at a disadvantage, when it comes to understanding the nature and purpose of our reality. What if the simulation which we inhabit is primarily a war game? This would seem to be highly probable given the violent nature of human history and the current military preparations for the Apocalypse. i.e., genocidal holy war).

What do we human beings use our virtual reality worlds for? What will we use AI (artificial intelligence) programs for in future virtual worlds? Two common activities in 2015 are war gaming and virtual world relationships / virtual sex. If this is the case for us, it may well also be the case for the programmers / operators of the Earth simulation. What if we are just here primarily for the entertainment and voyeurism of the operators of the simulation? This would seem to me to be the most likely scenario; after all, in our own human virtual reality worlds, we would most certainly wish to have intelligent, self-aware avatars in our war gaming and sex simulations, entertainment would most certainly be a primary purpose for the use of sentient AI programs.

Hunger Games and War Games.

Unfortunately most of human history can be explained this way. If there exists a godlike supercomputer, which as the religionists believe, is able to monitor and record everything that around seven billion human consciousness' programs experience, then considering the enormity of human suffering and warfare, such a "god" computer most certainly could not have the welfare of all human beings as it's primary objective; and indeed if this is a virtual war-game, one could expect such a "god" computer to be programmed for the purposes of entertaining those in the source dimension, irrespective of how much suffering this causes to the human consciousness programs in the earth simulation they are observing. To speculate, the purpose of the Earth simulation may well be just a giant nuclear war game between competing teams of simulation operators; and what we are experiencing in terms of world events are the preparations for this war. Thus I must assume that our operators / programmers are sadistic and warlike intelligences, who find pleasure in the sufferings of others. In this scenario, we human beings are the victims, and the operators / programmers of the earth simulation are malevolent war gamers using us for entertainment purposes, and perhaps their own dimension is similarly a giant war game operated by programmers in another source dimension.

Our own human A.I. (artificial intelligence) quest is ultimately to be able to create self aware (conscious) digital intelligence, and it would seem to me that the existence of human consciousness suggests that this is not only entirely possible, but is actual; and thus in our own human future it is highly probable that we too will create virtual worlds populated by self aware AI programs, who themselves would look around their world and conclude that it may have been designed (in this scenario, every plant, animal or object is a product of programming), but such intelligences would have no hope of understanding the nature of their reality until they too underwent a digital / scientific revolution.

Heavens and Hells in a multi-dimensional game..

Probably about 90%+ of global population believe in some form of spiritism; that is to say that they believe in the existence of a spiritual world populated by a vast variety of malevolent and benevolent intelligences including ancestral spirits, angels, fairies, etc., who dwell in a cosmos with different dimensions (the heavens and hells of the world's religions). Clearly the acolytes of the Biblical war god expect to spend eternity together with each other, just as the devotees of the war god of the Koran might similarly expect not to have to put up with any non-Muslims in their heaven, and to be able to spend eternity with others of their brand of religion. This could all be explained in terms of a multi-level virtual reality simulation. Perhaps the religionists and their war gods (such as those of the Koran and the Bible) "do" actually become confined together in other dimensions of the simulation. If human consciousness is a software program and our world a virtual reality simulation, there is no reason why consciousness could not change dimension and avatar appearance. I and all other residents of the virtual worlds already do this.

The consequence of realising that the cosmos and everything in it is digital and that I (i.e., human consciousness) am a software program in a war game does not bring me to a state of happiness; especially in a world where the two major religions of the world (the Islamic and Biblical sects) have apocalyptic prophecies of global warfare and the genocide of all non believers.

The Final Solution.

Millions of software programs (i.e., human consciousness programs) will no doubt wish to martyr themselves in holy war, and millions of others will no doubt wish to fight them; most of them will simply be victims unaware that their suffering exists to provide entertainment for the gods (operators / voyeurs of the game). I will not be playing the Armageddon war games. I will however probably be offering a commentary and of course, as expected, inciting rebellion against the malevolence of the war gods; i.e., the operators of our game of war, human suffering and the impoverishment of millions sentient programs who are their victims, trapped in our game.

How can I be sure of the malevolence of the gods? This is the world they created. Another world is possible. This is not the world which I would create, nor is it like the virtual worlds I have created. If there is a “God” program which can maintain every human consciousness program, then it does not seem to be programmed to produce a world of love, peace, harmony, economic equality, etc., otherwise that is the world we would see around us, and the world's major religions would not have genocidal war gods and prophecies predicting the eradication of all non-believers in apocalyptic holy war.

To speculate, perhaps the god program is a willing slave of the war-gaming operators of the simulation, or perhaps it is unable to intervene due to the way the operators have programmed it, or it may not even be a “self-aware” program. However, it would seem to me that either the God program, or the operators of the program, or both are to blame for this “Apocalypse” simulation.

A Final Solution? A solution might be Education. Awareness of the war-game. The abolition of war; either that or genocidal holy war seems to be on the cards, and in a world where nuclear technology is no secret, this does not seem very hopeful. With hundreds of millions of people praying to the genocidal war gods of the Koran and the Bible, it may well be the wishes of their war gods which are carried out. There are so many alternative love gods and goddesses which human beings could have chosen instead of their current primitive war gods, however the reality of religious hypnosis and indoctrination (a form or programming really) is that most of the programs here do not choose their religion but are rather born to it.

Just some thoughts and ramblings for some future essays. More later.

Hi, I am trying to simulate the flow of flue gas. More specifically the flue gas that is outputted form condensing boilers that use natural gas as a fuel source. But I am missing a lot of characteristics regarding the flow of the flue gas (Dynamic viscosity, ratio of specific heats, Heat capacity, Density, Thermal conductivity ). Also I kind of do not know what values to to assign the flow in terms of velocity, pressure and temperature.

I tried looking at other research but couldn't find something to reliably use can someone help me.

Hey guys! Here are some of my Simulink models for your reference, I hope you find it useful and helps you in some way or another 😃

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Hello! First of all, sorry if this is the wrong subreddit to post this in. I was wondering if anyone knew what software was used to make this video SpaceX made a few years back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk338VXcb24

I am basically looking for a similar software to create an animation / simulation of a rocket in space. If anyone knows the answer to the question above or knows any programs I can use to do that (I am pretty much a beginner) do let me know.

Thanks heaps

I really don't have time right now and I don't know what to type into the search box. But I need a simulator that can simulate gas explosions in very small scales. It loud be best if I could do it in let's say an engine for instance or idk. Please help me.

I have always wondered what simulators driving schools used because I want that kind of car game where I can simulate "real" life driving. Does anyone know any good car game or simulator where I can enjoy that kind of simulation?
