Proof to me your computer does not exist

Give me your best answer. Because I found one that will blow you away.

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?

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
