How is a created universe more depressing than one which spontaneously appears?
If free will exists, people feel good because they feel they can control their minds. If free will doesn't exist, are we not still lucky to be able to enjoy the ride?
Either way, this doesn't change the fact that reality, whether simulated, or a spontaneous reality, would feel exactly the same, everything else being equal. My 2 satoshis 🤙
