The rock isn't bothered by such existential thoughts.

We make the difference. The universe doesn't care whether we all die tomorrow, therefore our existence is ultimately pointless, and our existence is now without point, perhaps to breed and prosper, but that is meaningless.

In physics, the universe is considered to be composed of quantum states that are only defined when observed. That is, when you observe an object, you fix it's particles' quantum states until someone else observes the same particles from the same perspective.

The reason why a cube with different images on each of it's faces appears different on each is because any given particle can be made to produce any state desired. An infinite number of possible states can be inferred or predicted from any given particle, and if observed from the right perspective. Imagine a sphere; 360 cubed = 46,656,000. Imagine the sphere spinning and changing it's tilt to present a hypothetical observer not simply a different face, but a different pattern of faces. This is how a harddrive works. Information can't be lost, and the mathematical capacity to infer past and future states correctly is the evidence.

What you call the past is merely one of an infinite, arbitrary pattern of states. And so is the future. Your one dimensional temporal trajectory is composed of taking a path through a universe of static quantum states, and composing a cartoon of causality. Much like how a code can be produced that will produce meaningful sentences from any mass of text - such as the Bible code - a path through these infinite quantum states can produce something that appears to be a mono-directional time stream.

Every single thing you've ever done will be remembered, and can and will be recalled and reviewed. Where you are now is a result of an infinite number of previous choices. "Quantum immortality" is true, simply because the 'mind' making these choices exist long before it found itself in a human body.

There is no independent observer in the universe, from a quantum perspective you cannot confuse matter with "being", while from ahuman persepective, once humanity dies, the human universe dies with it.

Different mice in the picture grew from different fertilized eggs, which contained; 1; a control mouse; 2 a mouse with a gene mutation; and 3, another mouse with a related gene mutation.

>There is no independent observer in the universe, from a quantum perspective you cannot confuse matter with "being"

There is no "being." The concept of a mindspace, where an imagination exists is delusional. The body - which includes the brain - produces sensations, and these sensations are somehow self-aware. The mind is a result of Pavlovian conditioning of these sensations, which results in a ghost-like emulation of the external world.

The universe *is* the observer.

>while from ahuman persepective, once humanity dies, the human universe dies with it

All quantum states can be retrieved, and probability implies that the current pattern of quantum states composing the world will repeat again - and again, for eternity.

These are the technical details of the Copenhagen Interpretation. I'm sorry that your only exposure to physics is through youtube and 4chan.
