@reiko_lj Man, you totally left me guessing with that quote. I kept asking myself, "Root? Root who? The only 'Root' I know is that nutbag Wayne Allyn Root who was on the Libertarian presidential ticket back in the day." Except I knew it couldn't be him that you were quoting; it was way too thoughtful and reflective.
For those who find themselves similarly confused, go here: https://trakt.tv/shows/person-of-interest/seasons/5/episodes/10
@roguescholar ah yeah sorry bud. I should have said Root from Person of Interest. A show very much worth people's time to check out!

Tbh this didn't tread any ground that hasn't been covered before. It just sprinkled some religion in there too and was about 4 episodes too long. Still think the acting and dialogue was poor too.
When you get into simulation theory I think Root said it best:
"Schrödinger said, at its base level, the universe isn't made up of physical matter, just shapes. A shape, you know, nothing firm. What it means is that the real world is essentially a simulation anyway. I like that idea-that even if we're not real that we represent a dynamic. A tiny finger tracing a line in the infinite-a shape. And, then we're gone. Listen, all l'm saying, is that if we're just information, just noise in the system, then we might as well be a symphony."
