    Not to take this post too seriously, but why wouldn’t the holodeck simulate aging, as well?

    If growth and aging were not a part of their universe then Moriarty and the Countess would go insane during their “lifetime of exploration and adventure”.

    🤔

      The first time they dealt with him, he was supposed to be paused basically. It was quite a shock to everyone when he told them he was conscious the entire time they had him stored in memory. It was the second time he showed up that they put him in The Matrix.

        I meant they’d go insane with their presumed immortality.

        Did Moriarty want to be conscious for eternity?

          I don’t understand where insanity enters into it. Or immortality, unless you think their cube would last forever.
