Can someone explain what was debunked here?

The Universe was a meme when it started
Why do you think something was debunked? It sounds like their results were consistent with the holographic principle.
The so-called borders of our universe is the other side of a black hole (white hole) in another universe whose borders is the other side of a black hole...

Damn so that's what woman are from

Reminder that David Icke has been saying this for years

>By comparing the Bayesian evidence for the models, we find that ΛCDM does a better job globally, while the holographic models provide a (marginally) better fit to the data without very low multipoles (i.e., l ≲ 30), where the QFT becomes nonperturbative.
Nothing was debunked. Their model isn't as good as plain old standard cosmology. There is no substantial evidence for the holographic universe in that paper. A posteriori cuts to the data to enhance significance are not legit.

Whoa I'm learning a lot about him now
This is the sort of shit I live for.
>>8640304
wtf are you talking about?
that doesn't resolve the infinitude of existence.

Once you get done with David Icke, give David Duke a read.
This is seriously fucking my brain. What the fuck does it even mean for something to be a 2D "hologram"?
Actually, this makes things like black holes seem a lot less weird. It almost makes sense now.

I actually think that. I never took the time to properly calculate it, but big bang was the creation of the black hole. As the universe is expanding, we lose energy (at a rate of currently H_0) as wavelengths get stretched out. This is how Hawking radiation happens from inside the black hole. As the surface of our black hole gets smaller and smaller, Hawking radiation gets more and more intense, expansion is accelerating. If you take the estimated density of our universe and calculate the corresponding Schwarzschild radius, you'll notice that it corresponds to the size of the observable universe pretty well (which is actually obvious if you look at it from a cosmological standpoint, but anyway).

How does one explain black holes with this theory?
Reality is nothing at all except what it is perceived to be.
>>8640240
The universe is flat, meaning it will be infinite.
Though that's hardly something new tbdesu
>inb4 some tards come on autistically screeching that it means the universe is a simulation
>>8640304
One way to test that would be to search for more traditional white hole counterparts to the black holes that fill the universe. Some Pulsars are likely some.

it cant be infine otherwise no matter would happen
