If you shoot yourself in the head with a quantum gun, 4,975 of the 9,950 biological instances are dead, and 25 of the 50 simulated ones awaken from the simulation. You pull the trigger again, and 2488 of the 4975 biological survivors from the first trigger pull are dead, and 13 of the 25 simulated survivors wake up from their simulation. Note that with each trigger pull, the proportion who are still alive (either in the simulation or having awoken from it) remains the same: at 50, while the population of physical/biological entities is cut in half each time. After another 12 or so trigger pulls the only remaining survivors will be those that were simulated, and all of them now find themselves in a different realm. > the partitioning of Drelb world should always be low measure... even near > death. > > This would require that the simulation hypothesis has an extremely low (relative) probability.
