If anything, the universe seems to indicate that anything is possible in the multiverse, and that everything that is possible happens somewhere, mayhaps just in a locality we dont have access to. That being said, swapping an elementary particle like the electron for a proton made of quarks would involve corresponding changes to the way the forces worked, which might require a different spacetime geometry, or extra dimensions to make the math of the vibrational modes work. So, that's the most complex way I could think of to say there is no way to prove a negative. And those are all the words I know.
Limitations of hardware resources show up as "Natural Limits", like the speed of light, in the simulation. The amount of RAM consumed translates to the Hubble Bubble, or the greatest distance light could have traveled since the beginning of our universe, and moreso to the amount of matter and energy contained within it, which is a constant. Energy and matter cannot be created or destroyed, only changed forms allowed, so a set amount from the beginning.
I was going to take the time to write a biting riposte just like this, but I, unlike some people, know that it's my patriotic duty to get to work for this Billionaire Payday"economy" and work until I die. This country is built on, for, and by everyone agreeing that if you aren't working or buying, preferably both, you better get busy dying. After all, how can I ever hope to be happy unless our benevolent overlords can vacation on Mars? So, put down that damn infernal computer machine, and get out there and buy, buy, buy. We can't have profits down this quarter, or they'll ration our Brawndo! And never forget, it's all very different from slavery, because we are paid, have freedomprofits, and healthcare...Uh, well, it is very, very, different. Anyways, 'Murica!!! GET BACK TO WORK!!!!!!!
Did their own reasearch. Turns out people are very enthusiastic about the thought of nuclear accidents in their own backyards, and the regulations reflect that. Love this democratization of information. Thanks Internet!
It's because the demons fly out of you when you sneeze, and you need to be blessed to prevent them from getting back in, or so they thought back in Black Plague days.
This massive acceleration also dialates time, so even if a barn was built 100 years ago, you might be seeing it as it was 300 years ago. This is why barns often also look so old.
I chew gum, too, I just do it in private where no one can see, like any other decent human being.
