I, too, first heard this quote from Adam on Mythbusters as a child. But, I’m pretty sure I also heard it was said first by some philosopher.
I would later be informed that “some philosopher” was the 1984 film The Dungeon Master.
Only apparently that was not the first, and it was said in a 1974 episode of Doctor Who. Well, someone on Reddit said that, and linked to this WikiQuote page but on that page it also says it’s from The Dungeon master.
So, I don’t know what to believe any more, and I still hope it was actually an obscure lost quote of Rene Magritte or something because in my head it would just make sense.
File systems aren’t even real.
at that point operating systems are also not real.
What is this “real” concept anyway?
Adam Savage famously stated on Mythbusters “I reject your reality and substitute my own”
Sure, but is reality even real then? Is anything real?
Not that I meant to get all pop-philosophical on this beautiful Sunday morning, sorry about that.

Yes
Interpretation of reality is individual
Reality itself is relative
But if it didn’t exist we wouldn’t be chatting about it right now
That’s my reality anyway
What’s yours?
