No problem I like the theory you posted about. it's cool because of thought about this a lot and it's nice to have somewhat closer I guess.

Yea, it's a nice one to think about right? Because if things really are shuffling randomly, then way before the universe randomly resets, you can expect lots of weird things like: by pure chance a perfect copy of your brain at this exact moment comes into existence, complete with all your memories until this point, just brought together by chance in the otherwise chaotic vacuum of space.

Isaac Arthur has good discussion of this kind of sci-fi and futurism. I recommend his channel in general but here is an older video of his dealing with these kind of infinite improbability issues haha. Check it out if you're interested
