But how is the latency for online gaming? It'd be awesome if it's near instantaneous, or limited only by the net code.

some interpret this to mean there is no free will.

Which is kinda stupid. Because even if my decisions come about through undetermined random quantum effects that is still a physical effect outside of my control and I still cannot really act of my own free will. Schopenhauer had already figured that out without the need for quantum physics. A person might do what they want but they cannot want what they want.

tldr: Free will is bullshit. Let's watch some TV.
