"What happens when I measure an entangled particle at A after choosing an orientation, you measure it at B, and we're a light-year apart, moving at different speeds, and each measuring "first" in our frame of reference?

Why do these so-called "probabilities" resolve into probabilities when I measure something, but not when they're just being microscopic? When exactly do they resolve? How do you know?

Why is the wavefunction real enough to run a quantum computer but not real enough to contain intelligences?

These are all questions that must be faced by any attempted single-world theory. Without specific evidence pointing to a single world, they are not only lethal for the single-world theory but lethal for anyone claiming that we have good reason to think about it."

No, No, No and No....

Until we have both a unifying theory of physics and conclusive proof of wave function collapse one way or the other the single world vs multi-word debate will still be relevant.

"Why is the wavefunction real enough to run a quantum computer but not real enough to contain intelligences?"

Not the right question, being charitable here, I will assume you're asking about the objective reality of the wave-function. But this has nothing to do with intelligence or anything of the sort.

This is really nauseating watching a bunch of non-physicists being convinced by their own non-technical arguments on a topic where the technical detail is the only detail that counts.

The best thing you guys can do for yourselves is learn some physics or stop talking about it. I am trying to help you guys save face.

Just in case anyone is interested in responding don't bother I don't have enough respect for anyone here to care what you have to say.
