A. Only in a random way.
Since 'random' has multiple meanings then it refers back to itself in that way - since the assigned meaning could be 'randomly chosen'.

Every time you throw a pair of dice in a casino.

If you win - the money you get paid does Actually Exist. At that time.
If you lose - your money also does Actually Exist but its then somebody else's.

meaning of the word 'true' in the forum title context.
Maybe there could be multiple definitions of it.

BTW, I see elsewhere you say that Heisenburg's uncertainty principle does not falsify determinism. It does.
Determinism is the notion that there is no true randomness, while Heisenburg places a strictly positve lower bound on randomess. These two things are incompatible.

It falsifies absolute total universal determinism.
But not all determinism.
People can still determine things.
I think processes can 'determine' events too.
The spin of the earth is going to 'determine' that the sun will appear over the horizon tomorrow.
Redshift has been determining for a long time that we'll see it here and we do.
me?
