Yes? No? I'm only kidding really but it seems like a decent antidote to the simulated universe brigade. Or maybe a gift they will enjoy immensely.
i mean, depends how u define moments prior to ur death. obv, every moment of ur life that u live is before ur death. but aside from that, i get what u mean. that in the next moment u could die. but. .5 doesn't seem like a good estimate, maybe given the absence of any other information, but we know that we have estimates like average lifespan, which tells us that, depending on age of course, u are more likely not to die in the next moment than u are...
but cool thought regardless...
