Proof to me your computer does not exist
 
Give me your best answer. Because I found one that will blow you away.

What computer?

TheKak 01-21-2004 04:40 AM

Somehow I doubt it will "blow me away"!

vonstalhein 01-21-2004 07:25 AM

Your computer does not exist because you blew it away.

What are you talking about?

Do you mean "Prove to me that your computer does not exist", or are you implying that you have empirical proof that my computer does not exist?

Clarify please.

Energy consumes every object. Consider 98% of everything (and everyone) is made up of energy. The other 2% is matter.
It exists in a physical manner, to our physical perception, because of the force and speed of the energy holding it together. Therefore, it's the energy that exists, the energy makes up the matter. You can look at it both ways, I suppose.
I am really not proving anything, either way, here. Just simply stating what it is.
So what's your answer?

Johnny Rotten 01-21-2004 08:50 PM

I don't think I can give an answer, because there wasn't a question.

:)

StormBerlin 01-21-2004 11:36 PM

Uhhh.... the computer does exist. Energy in the form of a computer is still a computer right?

Kabsnow 01-22-2004 11:15 AM

its all in your mind!! ooooo!!

John Henry 01-22-2004 12:37 PM

Let me pre-empt your argument.

Assume A1, A2, A3, ...AN true.

A1, A2, A3, ...AN=>B1, B2, B3, ....BN

B1, ...BN=>Your computer does exist.

However your computer clearly does exist, therefore one of your initial assumptions is wrong or your logic is flawed. Reexamine your argument.

CSflim, beautiful.

That is a computer.
That isn't a computer.
That isn't a computer.
That isn't a computer.

That isn't a representation of a computer.
That is a representation of a computer.
That isn't a representation of a computer.
That isn't a representation of a computer.

That isn't a statement about computerness.
That isn't a statement about computerness.
That is a statement about computerness.
That isn't a statement about computerness.

I dont have a theory on why my (your) computer doesnt exist, but I would love to be "blow away" by yours...

Monre 02-03-2004 06:14 PM

Im not gonna prove something doesn't exist when it doesn't exist.

orange monkeyee 02-03-2004 06:48 PM

it surfs porn and downloads music, what more do i need proof of ?

Crack 02-03-2004 07:14 PM

Now I am curisous about what will "blow me away..."

Lokus 02-03-2004 08:34 PM

I'm curious too because I only like to be blown in one way and I highly doubt that charlesesl will do it.

I'm still not sure exactly what he was asking in this thread though.

klt2 02-04-2004 01:52 PM

CSflim: Awesome.

aarchaon 02-05-2004 03:33 AM

For anyone who was wondering what CSFilm's picture said: This is not a computer.

wannabenakid247 02-06-2004 09:27 AM

Even if it only existed in our minds it still exists to us doesn't it?

forgotten_dream 02-25-2004 08:12 AM

There is no computer...

Shokan 02-25-2004 10:34 AM

Prove to me that it does.

skier 02-26-2004 03:15 AM

I think you guys scared the little rookie away

El_Borracho 02-26-2004 07:00 AM

Mathmatical proof that you and I and therefore your computer don't exist (as taken from The Restraunt at the End of the Universe.)

Quote:

It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.

bermuDa 02-27-2004 03:45 PM

haha CS, best answer yet :D

evilbeefchan 02-28-2004 10:24 PM

Well, by definition, a computer is a device that computes, especially a programmable electronic machine that performs high-speed mathematical or logical operations or that assembles, stores, correlates, or otherwise processes information.

But my laptop is really an etch-a-sketch.
