You could have a database of your brain… but it wouldn’t be conscious.

Where is the proof of your statement?

It’s a scientific fact that physical matter does not exist in its physical form when unobserved.

No, it's not. The quantum field and the quantum wave exist whether or not you observe it, only the particle behavior changes based on interaction. Note how I specifically used the word "interaction", not "observation", because that's what a quantum physicist means when they say the wave-particle duality depends on the observer. They mean that a wave function collapses once it interacts definitely, not only when a person looks at it.

It certainly invalidates physical reality as the “source of truth”, so to say

How so, when the interpretation you're citing is specifically dependant on the mechanics of quantum field fluctuation? How can physical reality not exist when it is physical reality that gives you the means to (badly) justify your hypothesis?

VIIII is a valid way to write 9, though antiquated. If you look at very old clocks, you'll see they all use this notation.

Julius Caesar's memoir of war in Gaul makes use of VIIII, for instance. You're right that it's much rarer, but was still used contemporarily and in modern times.

Because "metronome" means regular measure, not regular metre.

Hell yeah, power to the proletariat!

The sort of people with the moral height to migrate to decentralized platforms are also, likely, the sort of people to be realists – the world is fucked, hiding from the truth doesn't make it go away.

Not even close. Also doesn't help that 'muricans have a very distorted view on how their country is perceived
