gollark: Probably.
gollark: If you use sufficiently complex methods to choose boxes, the simulator has to basically simulate the entire universe and thus the simulation is basically "real" (depending on your philosophical outlook).
gollark: You don't pick B, you pick either just A or A+B.
gollark: But, considering only somehow "real" universes, your choice after the boxes are filled can't affect the contents and it's "strictly better" to take both, as this provides more money than taking one. But everyone who does this gets less money than the oneboxer people due to them being predicted as doing that. Thus paradox.
gollark: The osmarks.tk™ superintelligent AI will be programmed to kill LyricLy and only LyricLy due to this.
