>>17200828just assume you have an excess capacity for knowledge
β17200885[Quote]
>>17200841What if its something like a law of nature that I would want to understand, will it be counted as the past (since the time it was in place) or the future (the time when it got properly explained/discovered)?

Eh, maybe not the future like I voted for. Even muh video games and movies could become boring if you already know them.

>>17200273 (OP)The universe is deterministic so if you were to know everything that happened in the past with absolute certainty, you could predict the future.
β17200987[Quote]
>>17200964The future option is still relevant since like things are unpredictable

Also human history of the past less then human history of future

>>17200273 (OP)Past. I don't like the implications of knowing everything I'll ever think and do before I have those thoughts.
β17201026[Quote]
past because knowing the future would pretty much remove your sense of free will
β17201035[Quote]
past
β17201042[Quote]
>>17201016also I'll know everything about early human societies, the Big Bang or the creation of the Universe in general. sounds pretty great
β17201058[Quote]
>>17200987>>17201000So in this hypothetical scenario I don't fully know about the past?
β17201071[Quote]
>>17200291knowing the future implies determinism
β17201076[Quote]
>>17200933we don't know that the universe is fully deterministic, it's very much contested. though if it were you'd probably figure that out too by picking past
β17201086[Quote]
>>17201071What if its like the future that would happen if you didn't know about it
β17201096[Quote]
i dont believe in determinism so i would say the past
β17201122[Quote]
>>17201016yeah it would be a logical paradox geg

Past, because having absolute knowledge of everything that already happened can help you achieve anything as it implies you have knowledge of everyone else's experiences, therefore making them your experiences, while knowledge of everything that will happen can also be helpful, but more likely to bring existential dread than any meaningful development into your life

I want to know what "knowing" entails here. Would you know about every event in the past/future as if they were explained to you, or would you have vivid memories of them with visual and aural and tactile information like you were there?
