Let's say you could temporarily reverse the laws of physics and rewind the universe to the exact state it was in this morning. Would anything have happened differently the second time around?
That's so far outside reality that it's hard to say anything with any certainty. Do I know I'm Groundhog Day-ing? Because I've been trying to import some stupid csv files all day and I just found the solution 5 minutes ago so if I remember what I've done, I might skip all that nonsense and go straight to the solution. I might even do the dishes after. If I don't know and all the matter I'm made of is reset to how it was this morning, I don't see why anything would be different the second time around.
What statistic would that be?
Number of men with driver's license in 1850
That just shows whether they did or didn't, not whether they could or couldn't. Sloppy.
Depends on your view of free will. If they never did, they never could.
I like that view because then it isn't my fault that I haven't done the dishes - I just didn't so I simply couldn't. Nice.

Smh my head.
Only because they couldn't drive to save their lives.
Lemmy won't stand for that!
