We need to talk about Parallel Universes.

| Like seriously. Based on my observation of various dimensional and temporal anomalies that have appeared ovet the past few weeks, i have concluded that the GC we live in, or perhaps the area that this was founded in, is in some sort of a special dimensional locatipn in which spacetime is particularily unstable. It would explain why in the past few years, A large amount of sinsister and spectacular events have been happening. But lets focus on thr "outsiders" from other places.


| You are on to something
-Alpha-20


| I think he is high..
>N3


| I think he is high..
>N3


| >>177648
Parralel worlds have been observed by our organization several times, they are not a joke, but a reality, but all those who interacted with them died, to my knowledge atleast
-Alpha-20


| At anyrate, after some extensive snooping about, there are somw certain individuals that speak of a place in which their version of the world is vastly different from us, this has led me to concieve of the following hypothosises.
A: Due to the infinite amount of worlds in the multiverse; it is
not impossible to thinl that any two maybintersect, leading to a dimensional rift in which individuals could in fact, cross the boundry by exceptional circumstances


| >>177655
Its called string theory.
>N3


| Such a collision would likely force the worlds apart, causing the rift to quickly closr after individuals have been transported. This would explain why the only observation of rifts we have are often seen in dangerous remnants,


| B: We are actually in purgatory.
Due to the inability to observe the entirety of the multiverse from an unbiased perspective, it could be tbat we are one of many "Dimensional Dumps". This would explain why some outsiders claim to have died before awaking in this cyber hell, it does not however, account for the sparcity of outsiders, leading me to conclude that if this is correct, The multiverse could be seen as more of a ring of souls then a foam


| This could explain away the outsiders as anomalies that weren't properly reincarnated, but this would also imply some force of nature, be it god or math, is flawed in some spectacular way, therefore this hyppthisis is largely debunk, but has some novel conceptions of the entirety of everything.


| C: The internet Forum Hypothisis
This one, while most nonsensical, is disturbingly impossible to disproove. It is possible, that we are at the whims at a bunch of "gods" or "writers", and that life as we know it, simply doesn't exist. We couls be living in a sort of simulation, where we are fed information, and thus, nothing is real.
Such a calamitous revelation would never be revealed, of course, for it is impossible to know how much the "writers" have control over us


| >>177682
Okay the others at least have some theoretical basis behind it, but this one really does seems like the dumbest one. -CN


| It is also impossible to know how many they're are. Does a fictional character understand the world outside a book? No. Thus even if this wad true, there is no real value in researching it, as it'll be impossible to observe the world of the "writers" if they even have such a place. Anyway, this explains the outsiders as mere creations of a "writer" perhaps taken from another place in "their world"

Anyway it's time to stop rambling and get coffee

-1/2 A


| >>177682
Ridiculous, not even Beta-18 would fall for such a theory
-Alpha-20


| The last one is more of something to muse about, by the way, such a spectacular amount of circumstance is impossible to observe, and shouldn't be given mich thkugh outside of.

How do i sleep at night?


| >>177693
Like everyone else: Don't let it set in. -CN


| >>177684
I agree with CN
But in a way,string theory both proves and disproves all of them.
Let me explain,in sting theory it says that there is a universe for every outcome, so wouldn't that mean that there is a universe where that is true?
But that would also mean that there is a universe where string theory is not true.
>N3


| We believe the world to be represented by the Attractor field model.
-Alpha-20


| String theory moreso applies to rwality, and requires dimensions in the form of spacial dimensions, out, in, etc. It does not apply to the multiverse, where i use the term dimensions loosely,


| >>177698
That's the one about worldlines and stuff right? -CN


| >>177718
Yes indeed
Our expert and resident mad scientist (Self proclaimed) Alpha-13 once observed what she described as another worldline and has been studying the matter for years now, finding some evidence to assure its veracity
-Alpha-20


| >>177739
What was the other one like? -CN


| >>177682
...hell, ah hope this isn't true.

'cause if ah ever found my "writer," ah'ma punch him repeatedly in the fucking face.

...and then probably have sex with him. Or her. Or them. Would they have genders? Does it matter?

Anyway... yeah, throat punching. -M9


| >>177746
A world where QUINCY lost his office in the 24 hour war, she described it as pretty similar over-all to her own reality, but that glitch city was very different
-Alpha-20


| >>177748
Would that mean your writer would *want* you to do that then? -CN


| >>177750
In what ways? -CN


| >>177748
M9 are you drunk again?
>N3


| >>177753
Mostly in how the city was handled, it seemed more authoritarian to quote her words. She never really talked about it, saying it was at first a very traumatic experience.
-Alpha-20


| >>177682
While not impossible to disprove, this is also hard to prove. Free will are, in essence, blurred in each moments of waking life. If we are within the grasp of these gods whose task is to write our actions, our stories — then what does life, as a whole, really mean?

A confusing subject, but none that matters more than to interest the existential crisis within ourselves. -Uni


| In the wise words of a wise man, we would never know and what would it change? We would still live out our lives the same way and so it is meaningless to talk about
-Alpha-20


| Essentially, what matters most is now — not whether or not "now" is real, nor whether we are simply creations of these gods. After all, even if we are characters, played out as a puppet, we still have a certainty of our own; even if it's false. -Uni


| >>177759
Jeez... -CN


| >>177752
...
...
...
... oh fuck you!

>>177755

Maaaaaybe. -M9


| >>177791
Gahd dammit.
>>177777
CN again i want you to know that i respect you as a human,
And that im sorry.

Hey M9 i know you got the sex bombs,how do you like them?


| >N3


| >>177791
Literally they would be our own perfect counter... assuming we're not just weird expys of them. It would be weird finding out there's a gurl just like Engy who wrote her.
>>177796
WHY!? -CN


| >>177801
I would believe our "Writers" to be much different than who we are really, after all its more fun being someone you aren't
-Alpha-20


| >>177796
Planning my reign of terror as we speak. -M9


| >>177801
Engy's writer would be the most vanilla god in existence. -M9


| >>177806
Oh let me join in on that.
>N3


| >>177801
Again i mean nothing bad when i do this CN,but wouldnt a city wide mass orgy be awsome?


| >>177803
Hmm... I guess you do have a point, I just hope I'm not just one of those Gary Stu style characters in this scenario...
>>177806
I'm not leaving you alone with a single drink on Saturday, also not everything has to be about fetishes :/. For all you know her writer can be a kinky freak. -CN


| >>177813
I'll refrain
-Alpha-20


| >>177813
No. -CN


| >>177815 >>177816
Fair but its too late now,M9 has 100 vials of concentrated sex now,each can turn a city block into a mass orgy, to be honset i dont even want that,but i was kinda drunk when i sent her that.too late dont regret it.
>N3


| So, uh... ah just thought about something... and bear with me here...

...what year does everyone think it is right now? -M9


| >>177826
207X obviously. -CN


| >>177826
2xxx duh.


| >>177827 >>177828
What an odd disconnection. -Uni


| ...
...um... right...

See, ah dunno how y'all do things here, but where ah'm from we use a completely different system altogether. It's like 230 AP, the last I checked. But that was on Vetra. -M9


| >>177832
Better question,who the fuck let the drunk person have a philosophical discussion?
>N3


| I was born in the year 1998, so I supose it's 207X, is it not?
-Alpha-20


| >>177838
No one is sure. This rather huge rift is odd at best. Also, 1998? -Uni


| >>177813
Just for clarification,
I'm putting you on a watchlist lol. -Felix


| >>177843
Yes, that's what the year was back then.
-Alpha-20


| >>177844
Hey i was drunk back then,and i said the orgy part to defend myself,i dont actually want a city wide orgy.
>N3


| >>177846
Thats what you want us to believe
-Alpha-20


| >>177847
Welp its too late to change your minds now,
Soo i will just follow up on my mistake.
>N3


| >>177845
... Both of us might share more in common. What a very strange coincidence to have those with a stranger in the virtual space. -Uni


| Just goes to show you that between the year, the currency, There is something strange afoot


| Hello, my name is Tomoe Mami, and i am the magical girl from parallel reality. -Mami


| >>177866
Are *you* high?
>N3


| >>177866
You are? if you don't mind me asking, what was the last thing that happened before you came *here?*


| -1/2A


| >>177866
What form of Magicka do you even perform? I have never heard of any of the arts being limited to women
-Alpha-20


| You all do know that she might be lying though right?
>N3


| >>177888
Thus is a way of ignorance. We cannot ignore statements until they are proven to be false. -Uni


| Lying is irrelevent, the only thing i have to lose from lying is time. time is a resource, and i have enough to devote to this person who could bring about a breakthrough in my research.


| >>177889
True indeed, and I genuinely am interested
-Alpha-20


| >>177889
Fair just considering possibilities
As in science theory.
Everything is probable until proven otherwise.
>N3


| do the writers have writers?


| >>177838

1998? 207X? o.o

Man y'all have some long lived space empires or somethin'. Where ah'm from, recorded history doesn't even start until like... two, maybe three standard centuries ago. -M9


| Potentially, as yhere are writers in this layer there is potentially an infinite stack of writers, like a character in a story writing a story


| >>177866 >>177879 >>177885
Ya know, not too long ago there was a whole group of suits claiming to practice "magic," too. Called themselves the Black Collars or somethin-

They kinda fled after one of them went full batshit, claiming he was possessed by a demon or something. Then a big ass tree sprouted in the Midnight District, a bunch of fightin' happened, it got lasered, the laser got destroyed, and... yeah. Fun times. -M9


| >>177936
Really? I don't recall that eve-
Dear lord am i from a paralell universe too?
1/2A


| >>177940
Dun dun dun! -Felix


| >>177940
>faceslap.avi
Dude really?screw it its possible until otherwise.
>N3


| >>177930
Isn't that cause of the whole AI Purge thing you want through though? -CN


| >>177956
Something like that, yeah. But also, it's around the time the Protectorate began, ah think. At least, that's what their propaganda says.

The UCS started around the same time, ah think, but they've had so many "Wars of Unification" that ah don't think anyone really gives a shit anymore. -M9


| And that is probably the most thinking ah'll ever do in a thread on danger/cyb/. -M9


| >>177976
Is there *anywhere* in space that's pleasant? -CN


| >>178007
From my experience, the Atlas sector is pleasant, if you dont mind technological zealots
-Alpha-20


| >>178034
Atlas sector? -CN


| >>178036
Where I was born, a story for another time
-Alpha-20


| >>178046
Understandable. -CN


| >>178007
Yes, actually. World called "Iridia." Known for their salt baths. It's a vacationing spot- never been, obviously, but richfolk types talk about it all the time.

That, and sometimes you hear talking about "jewel worlds" or whatever, but if it's nice, it probably has some people with more guns than I have defending it. -M9


| So basically what you're saying is that quantum physics crashes Mario 64.


| Place where Engy comes from is also supposed to be nice... when it's not storming. -M9


| >>178063
What's Mario 64? -M9


| >>178063
Yes.


| >>178066
Yes.


| >>178062 >>178065
Huh, and yea she seemed to say her planet was nice. How far are those places from GC anyways? -CN


| Reading here reinforces a thought I had a while ago. Either GC is a computer simulation, or a science lab in the galactic outer rim where aliens run secretly galactic banned experiments on us.
Rare as it is, some old literature exists from the distant past. 3k years ago. 500 years. 19th and 20th century. Reading through those progress is consistent and makes sense. Till we reach GC and things get messy. Inconsistencies, absurd advances out of the blue...

Simulations or lab rats?


| >>178103
Mm... good question. Don't know the exact distance in light years, but iirc, it took her about... two, maybe three months to get to Vetra from her homeworld?

You know, when she was first shipping out, with all her equipment. Iridia... ah have no fragging idea. Only really read and heard about it in advertisements. Corpers have like... luxury yachts and stuff that they party on all the way there. Tch. -M9


| >>178110
This is a pretty shitty simulations then. Could be worse though I guess.
>>178111
Hmm... so it's feasible to get to engys home from here then? -CN


| >>178162
Haha... no.
Unless you had a star map, the necessary fuel, a ship, and... well. A lot of things.

Interstellar travel ain't like riding a car from point A to point B, geekboy. It's difficult work.

Also why I usually just hitch a ride. :P -M9


| Remember- we only found where "here" is from Vetra, and even that was by getting some paydata. We both thought this was just another backwater world.

It doesn't even show up on on a map. -M9


| In my case, The Atlas have been aware of earth for a long time, they just didn't want to pollute it until AUCR came along, we reffer to it as a sanctuary, as most persons here are unaware of our existence.
-Alpha-20


| >>177868 No, i am not.
>>177879 I don't mind you asking. I have suffered a cruel death.
>>177885 More like performed. It included several abilities, but the main ones are weapon bending (lots of single-charge high caliber rifles) and soulgem posession.
>>177888 You have your right to have your opinion. I habe my right to deny and ignore it. -Mami


| >>178180
That remind me, why did you even come to GC in the first place? -CN


| >>178189
So no source? No spell forging? No Art?
That's just weird
-Alpha-20


| >>178188
So, uh, why exactly is this "Earth" important? -M9


| >>178191
To... make money, of course. Why else would someone come to this shithole?
Er, no offense. -M9


| >>178197
[X] Doubt. -CN


| >>178196
Humans make for good lab rats, it seems
Aside from that? The peace and quiet of knowing that no conflicting races will just go to war in an instant because they're scared of being found out.
-Alpha-20


| What even is an "Earth" anyway? The only time I hear about it is when one of those religious fanatics is preaching about it and my ears immediately turn off. -M9


| >>178199
Well ah mean, they do call Glitch City the "guinea pig," so ah guess it makes sense. -M9


| >>178200
The church of the dying light out whatever? -CN


| >>178200
You mean hippies?
-Alpha-20


| >>178194 Our soul itself was a source, it was extracted from our bodies and formed a Soulgem - the quintessence of our power and life. -Mami


| >>178208
No, no- those people are just crazy. Ah'm talking about the major religion that's been popping up everywhere, who are slightly less crazy but still annoying- the Solarians. -M9


| >>178200
Ehat sar vhurch
PN3


| >>178191
Not that i had much of a choice, i have found myself awakened here. -Mami


| >>178218
(fhakin goiant fingers...)


| >>178213
No, ah mean people talking about how "Mother Earth gave birth to the first humans" and "Father Solar nurtured the ancestors of the race" and how it was some kind of paradise and... yeah. Bullshit like that.

Basically Solar was some god that gave birth to humans and then we all fucked off and then the Purge happened, and...

...

Whoa, everything ah'm spouting is supposed to be like, common knowledge.

Maybe that parallel universe stuff isn't all memes. -M9


| >>178216
That's the first I've heard of them. -CN


| >>178223
Quick how do you spell bearstien bears? -CN


| >>178224

TLDR: Bunch of people believe that if humanity reunited with "the Homeworld"... capital "H"... then the neverending wars would stop. Everything would be peachy clean, and ah'd have my original heart back. Also miracles and shit.

You know... really nice sounding stuff. The stuff described in those books and other junk some scavengers found scrounging around The ARK. -M9


| >>178226
Dude you just spelled it out for her.
>N3


| >>178226
bear a what? -M9


| >>178227
Well really hope that's true cause that would make a lot of things a lot easier. Wait- what do you mean original heart? -Ca


| (*CN)


| >>178237
Er... this is the second time ah've lost my heart, because- you know.

Ah've been running on the spare this whole time, and it's been kinda taxing. Can't be up and about like ah used to.

Ever wonder why ah dropped out until recently? -M9


| >>178240
You replaced your liver a few mouths ago! Why did you not replace your heart!? That's it I'm setting something up for you right now. -CN


| (Okay, I just started listening to kickstart my heart as I started reading this thread, this isnt fucking funny and i'm laughing way too much)


| >>178265
( >headpats )


| >>178246
A heart is not a liver! >:T
Also= wait, where the hell are you going to find a new heart...?
-M9


| >>178314
Well I'm obviously gonna buy you an Aug one. I uh... came into a little cash thanks to some fast investing the other day, so don't worry about it too much. -CN


| At the very least it will be something designed for the stress of a normal heart and not a backup. -CN


| >:T
Fineeee... -M9


| >>178329
I'm sorry I'm inconveniencing you by buying you a VITAL ORGAN. -CN


| >>178332
Is she always like that?
>N3


| >>178332
Yeah, you BETTER be sorry! >:C
...
...
...
... thanks bro.
-M9


| >>178334
Depends on her mood. -CN


| >>178336
No prob bob. -CN


| .....The fuck is this thread?
-Fuschia Fedora.


| >>178526
Seems like a new doubt is born. That of GC citizens not being certain if GC is on Earth. The alternatives are either it inside a bunch of processors in a computer too obsolete for weather simulation forecasts, or on some obscure moon behind some nebula in the edge of a galaxy, with aliens testing whatnot theories about life and intelligence by using us as mere test subjects. GC being the maze.
