Spacetime is just one way we have found to calculate the worldpainting that emerges from information within our brains. And without a doubt, spacetime explains the reality within our worldpainting quite well.

According to high-energy theoretical physics, spacetime is not fundamental. What does this imply for physicalist theories of conscious experiences that start with brains or other objects in spacetime? I discuss this with Amira & Aryaan on The Arora Show.

Is consciousness really something special, or simply a characteristic of all living beings with a brain? After all, every living being inhabits the world constructed by its brain from sensory information. So the only question is: "Do they know that they are alive?"
In summary: We are gaining an increasingly better understanding of how the brain functions and which processes correlate with consciousness. However, why it feels like something to be conscious remains an open, fundamental question.

@NextScience There is neither dark energy nor dark matter. Both exist solely to confirm the validity of current theories. IF YOU DON'T SEE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM, THEN THERE PROBABLY ISN'T AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.

🌌 WHAT IF DARK MATTER ISN’T MATTER AT ALL?
Physicist Michio Kaku has discussed a fascinating possibility: what we call dark matter could, in some speculative theories, be connected to gravity from extra dimensions.
Could gravity be reaching our universe from somewhere we cannot see?
There’s one big catch: there is currently no experimental evidence that dark matter comes from another dimension.
The mystery remains unsolved.
@anilkseth@shamilch Consciousness is the "I" within one's own worldpaingting within my reality.
I recognize myself within my own worldpainting within my reality.
Is this the real definition of consciousness??

@NightSkyToday like usual. people talk about consciousness. No one can tell me what it is. If it means recognizing myself in my reality—knowing "I AM"—then consciousness exists. So, first we should agree on what we are talking about when we speak of consciousness.
Gesamtvermögen aller auf der Erde 268,4 Billionen Euro. Das sind bei 8,3 Mrd. Menschen immerhin ca 32000 Euro pro Mensch.@elonmusk alleine soll über 600 Mrd. haben das sind ca 0,2 % von allem. also 1 Euro von 500 Euro gehört @elonmusk. Hab ich richtig gerechnet? Schon krass oder?

The total global wealth is 268.4 trillion euros(AllianzInfo) . With a population of 8.3 billion, that works out to roughly 32,000 euros per person. @elonmusk alone 600 billion—that’s 0.2% of the total. So, 1 euro out of 500 Euro belongs to @elonmusk. Pretty wild, isn't it?

Niemand kann mir sagen, was Bewusstsein ist. Wenn es bedeutet, mich selbst in meiner Realität zu erkennen – zu wissen: „Ich bin“ –, dann existiert Bewusstsein. Wir sollten uns also zunächst darauf einigen, worüber wir eigentlich sprechen, wenn wir von Bewusstsein reden.
