No, Omega is possible. I have implemented Newcomb's Game as a demonstration. This is not a probabilistic simulation, this omega is never wrong.
It's really very obvious if you think about it like a game designer. To the obvious objection: Would a more sophisticated Omega be any different in practice?
For my next trick, I shall have an omnipotent being create an immovable object and then move it.
edit: sorry about the bugs. it's rather embarrassing, i have not used these libraries in ages.
Your Omega simulation actually loads the box after you have chosen not before, while claiming to do otherwise. If this is a simulation of Omega, thank you for making my point.
