Mr. Drifter I'm just another person with a comment but I do want you to know that there needs to be more people doing what you do. Not only do you give excellent game play of video games, that many people are interested in, but you give those people who think very narrowly a chance to broaden their scope of life. You have the potential to give people the ability to think for themselves, and that is a gift. Now I'm not saying that this field of philosophy needs to be studied by everyone, for it is esoteric, but by giving them, people, a structure that they can build upon is a noble action; especially in this day and age where social revolutions shake the very foundations of outdated traditions. You give people, however small, a potential for better understanding and compromise for compassion, and for that, this feeble person, writing such a frivolous comment, says thank you. :)
But we can't even simulate a human mind, the amount of atoms and atomic interactions are far too complicated for any computer in the foreseeable future can handle, and foreseeable is an understatement -we aren't even close. Moreover black holes do follow laws of physics, my aerospace engineering heart aches hearing that portion, we've seen them eject energy and supercharged particles as they can become too massive for themselves -there's even a handy formula that can show you how much mass/size one can handle. They even follow our current knowledge of momentum and gravity, having their own angular momentum (how kind).
Francisco Cardozo They follow all known physics laws because we haven't found any exceptions so far ever and having a black hole violate any set of laws would call into question the existence of black holes. Until your reach the tiniest of scales, all laws of physics are never broken, and even at the tiny scales there are laws to explain exceptions
We can't simulate a human mind...now, but as Driftor paraphrased Elon Musk in that if we assume any sort of advancement in technology we will reach a point (if humans are still alive) where we may able to simulate a mind, multiple minds, a universe, and maybe even more. The logic checks out, we just aren't there yet so you can't necessarily claim that it's wrong.
Honestly as someone who isn't in to COD anymore I have been awaiting Drif0r's yearly shift to uploading these types of videos. Really like them Drif0r, been a fan since MW3 and these are by far your best videos. Start a podcast!
Consider our current computers. They are made of logic gates. Logic gates cannot become infinitely small because you can't control electrical current on that scale. So in our current machines, there is an upper limit where eventually we cannot get any more computing power, disputing the claim that for certain we will eventually have enough computing power to simulate whatever we want. In other theoretical machines, like quantum computers, we don't know nearly enough about them to create theories on how they could simulate anything. The idea around 1:05 in the video about knowing the position and motion of every particle in the universe is irrelevant. It is impossible to know both. And the reasoning that "well, our programming just prevents us from knowing things" is radical skepticism, and if you accept that school of thought, you're going to find yourself in many, many paradoxes.
Drift0r, I really enjoy these philosophical commentaries. They are one thing I have enjoyed watching for a long time now, some even several times. It's a shame these commentaries don't always do as well as other your videos (looking at the views) since they are in my opinion your best videos... alongside with personal commentaries, it's always fascinating to listen people tell about themselves, their problems, their life, stories and struggles to get where they are today. Looking towards the next "crazy" video :)
The simulated universe theory reminds me of someone having an ant farm. The ants never would really know that their life can exist outside that glass box, just like there is a chance that we would never know if we were in a simulation.
Drift0r you should do a video on what is consciousness and what makes us aware? Will we ever understand how it was created. Cause if we did, we can possibly recreate ourselves. Or does our bodies control how we feel? Without a body there is no soul or anything like that. Would we have the ability to think without being able to feel anything.
johnson noel do you know anything of astral projection/travel? It is basically the ability to leave your physical form and travel to other worlds using your spiritual body, or so people believe. I am not on either side of believing it or not until I can achieve it myself.
Another thing common to simulations are maximim limits. Take skyrim for example. If you have (2^32)/2) gold, and you pick up 1 more septem, just 1, your ballance becomes ((2^32/2)*(-1)). This is because the value of the amount of gold you have is stored in a '32 bit signed int'. Once you go past that hard limit it wraps around the the other side of the int and becomes negative. Its the same problem that youtube had on gangnam style. Also, on an unrelated note, when you go past the hard limit, in our universe, of the speed of light, the rate time flows relative to you goes negative. Just a fun fact.
More informative commentary. Things like this are fantastic to watch. Many people (myself included) trust you and that you do your research. Well put together and wonderfully executed👌🏼
Hey Drift, if you ever find more interest on the philosophical aspects of this topic rather than the scientific and mathematical aspects, I would recommend watching The Truman Show (Its a movie, not a 'show'). It deals with epistemology, a concept introduced by Plato in The Allegory of a Cave.
Can someone please make a playlist of all the "High Thoughts With Drift0r"-videos for me? :D I really think this should become a regular series on the channel.
The funny thing is that the physical laws in our universe are actually not that different from what happens in a computer. First: there is no edge. A computer can run an endless loop, as well as simulating an endless strip of space, continuously updating itself to become 'bigger', while actually, there is no increase in 'physical' space. Also, there is a pixel size. The Planck length is the smallest amount of space possible. A Planck 'cube' would therefore make a nice pixel size (of order 10^-35) for our universe to be rendered in. There is a maximum update speed as well: the speed of light. No object or particle with mass can go faster than it and getting close to it results in time distortions and increase in mass, or what we call lag in computer games. Anyway, those were just my ideas. It might be true that we're living inside a simulation, but who cares? it is not going to change our daily lives and it's a pretty cool simulation after all! enough stuff to explore and funny easter eggs along the way!
Camper Killer Commentary did a great video on these topics a couple years ago, and names a lot of the original theorists who pioneered this theory. He's actually got an entire series dedicated to scientific theories with CoD gameplay as the backdrop, similar to this.
In horizon zero dawn man kind builds an ai to store embryos to repopulate the earth along with animals. Robots roam to re plant and clean water supplies all around the world. Do you think that could bring man kind back after an extinction level event? All the embryos are stored in vaults all around the world.
I don't know if this topic was covered or not but, I would love a video on Genetic DNA Manipulation. I think it's a very controversial, interesting, and intriguing topic.
I like the idea that everything is a result of my brain creating a super realistic dream for me To think my brain thought up of Drift0r and commenters that would reply to this comment is pretty cool
The Ace Of Spades I'm not narcissistic enough to believe that I am smart enough to think that I can invent and think of everything in the universe and on this world

Ahhhh
The Golden Drift0r philosophical commentary;
No one ever did it better.
Love the new back to back commentaries! Feel like I'm watching old 2012 Drift0r!
Jackson Dew Yes, like back when he was talking about his dreams and the "shadow man" god I miss those days
Bryce Mcdonald I rewatch those from time to time, very good.
Jackson Dew ayyyy same
Bryce Mcdonald me too
Gaming Wimp same

"high thoughts with driftor" is my favorite driftor
What if we are a battery powering a vehicle xD
7striker Ayy that's a lit episode
Now THIS is what i love bout this channel, can't wait till the next one of your philosophical videos!
I like how drift0r is actually still a commentator whereas other channels went to more of a click baitey/compilation style
I love these kind of videos. Keep it up man :)

shadow rckts finally, someone with sense in these comments
shadow rckts black hole only obey quantum physics
Francisco Cardozo They follow all known physics laws because we haven't found any exceptions so far ever and having a black hole violate any set of laws would call into question the existence of black holes. Until your reach the tiniest of scales, all laws of physics are never broken, and even at the tiny scales there are laws to explain exceptions
I find it interesting that if you extrapolate relativity a black hole will function as a separate universe from my limited understanding.
We can't simulate a human mind...now, but as Driftor paraphrased Elon Musk in that if we assume any sort of advancement in technology we will reach a point (if humans are still alive) where we may able to simulate a mind, multiple minds, a universe, and maybe even more.

Love the vids keep them up
Red Mage hi
The Magician hi
Me too
Driftor, PLEASE do more philosophical videos!!
If the universe is a simulation then could we not also argue that our simulator is also in a simulation.
skyline Yes but assuming we are a perfect simulation with near endless technological capability then theoretically we could simulate a universe
I heard you like simulations so I got you a simulation for your simulation
Searches why? I told you to get me a simulation for my simulation not a simulation
skyline He said that
These commentaries are the best part of your channel
I'm a simple man: I see a Drift0r philosophical video, I click like.
Really loving these types of videos man. I feel like they're getting more frequent and I'm loving it!
love these kinds of videos man keep em coming
These are the only Drift0r videos I watch anymore , they're so good !
Hey Drift0r, just wanted to let you know that I love these videos!
Love these sort of videos! Loved the AI one!💙
Honestly as someone who isn't in to COD anymore I have been awaiting Drif0r's yearly shift to uploading these types of videos. Really like them Drif0r, been a fan since MW3 and these are by far your best videos. Start a podcast!
Humza Qureshi it seems about 1/2 of the way thru each cycle is when we get philosophical drift0r more
Imagine how terrifying task manager would be if you were a program
I absolutely LOVE these types of commentaries. Keep it up!

I really like these, glad you're doing more
These are by far my favorite type of videos that you make. Wouldn't even mind if they were longer and more in-depth.
When you were talking about a simulation within a simulation, I couldn't stop thinking about that Rick and Morty episode haha
The simulated universe theory reminds me of someone having an ant farm. The ants never would really know that their life can exist outside that glass box, just like there is a chance that we would never know if we were in a simulation.

Love These types of Videos....

even though i havent played COd in a year, i'm happy for vids like this and that i'm still subscribed to you. keep it up drit0r
I see driftor philosophical, I like.
Saw the title, paused the video to load a bowl, took a hit, pressed play.
LOVE IT, keep it up driftor. I absolutely love your videos like this(about philosophy and all that)
daaaamn can't wait till the next commentary I love talking about this stuff with my friends
More informative commentary. Things like this are fantastic to watch. Many people (myself included) trust you and that you do your research. Well put together and wonderfully executed👌🏼
nice vid man, good idea for commentary. philosophy and crazy theories are so interesting
Wow these videos keep blowing my mind
love these types of videos, please keep them coming driftor ❤
do more videos like this just loved it.
I love these types of commentaries! Do more pls!
Love you Drift. Such great content
*Driftor hits blunt*
.
"Rick and Morty is a documentary"
Amazing
i absolutely adore this kind of videos drft0r!!! ^^
Great vid D, love seeing big TH-camrs step outside the box for once
"Reality isn't real, we all live in the matrix, rick and morty is documentary and the government did 9/11."
- Drift0r 17th march 2017 8:00
thanks for another great video drift
this kind of videos is why i still asub of this channel
Although the simulation theory sounds insane, It's fascinating as hell.
Drift0r this kind of stuff gives me bad panic attacks but glad to know others think about it
Drift0r, I really like commentaries such as these. maybe other people won't, that's fine. but my vote is to keep these types of videos going.
3:40 Sounds like that episode from Rick & Morty lol
Heisenberg _ yes! that one but i didn't remember the name, thanks
Daniel Galindo that sounds like slavery with extra steps
Indeed.
Please do the Mandel affect next . Great videos 👍
You should do a video on how good the kalam cosmological argument is
Great video. I've been playing a lot of bo3 lately, any chance you do some new in-depths on the new guns from supply drops?
Loving these discussion videos
I love these kinds of philosophical thoughts!!
Hey Drift, if you ever find more interest on the philosophical aspects of this topic rather than the scientific and mathematical aspects, I would recommend watching The Truman Show (Its a movie, not a 'show'). It deals with epistemology, a concept introduced by Plato in The Allegory of a Cave.
It reminds me of that Rick and Morty episode where Rick made a tiny universe as a battery and in that universe someone made their own tiny universe
YESS thank u Drift0r with the philosophy videos!
Wasn't simulation theory part of a rick and morty episode?
Stoner Drift0r=Best Drift0r.
The series that got me into Drift0r
Drop that video drift
I love these
love these types of vids
You seen the Rick and Morty episode that covers this? It's bloody brilliant
Can someone please make a playlist of all the "High Thoughts With Drift0r"-videos for me? :D I really think this should become a regular series on the channel.
"Rick and Morty is a documentary"
The timing of this video has me speechless.
Bro, you need your own podcast.
I love these types of videos
these mind-hacking ideas are the best dude, keep it up.

I can dig this, and the ad before the video hasn't even finished.
"My Man!" "Looking good!"

Love these videos
Drift0r is that type of TH-camr that you love and hate at the same time.
Drift0r you are too clever!
I love these videos!
Yes yes yes!! please more of these!!!!
loved this video please do more !!!
watch this completely sober.
then watch it stoned af.
you're welcome.
Cant believe what this channel became
A simulated universe would be the ultimate combo between the sims and sim city
Wild Turkey is an all American brand Drift0r.
In horizon zero dawn man kind builds an ai to store embryos to repopulate the earth along with animals. Robots roam to re plant and clean water supplies all around the world. Do you think that could bring man kind back after an extinction level event? All the embryos are stored in vaults all around the world.
Do more videos of these kind of topics please.
I don't know if this topic was covered or not but, I would love a video on Genetic DNA Manipulation. I think it's a very controversial, interesting, and intriguing topic.
I enjoy these!
Keep up the Commentaries bro :]
hell id say this theory was developed even before the 70's "plato allegory of the cave" anyone ?
I like stoner stories with Drift0r. :)
I like the idea that everything is a result of my brain creating a super realistic dream for me
To think my brain thought up of Drift0r and commenters that would reply to this comment is pretty cool
The Ace Of Spades I'm not narcissistic enough to believe that I am smart enough to think that I can invent and think of everything in the universe and on this world
nice video dude
