Let me also point out that if our brains are computers, they are quantum computers whose dataset is the entire observable universe.
For those who haven't really studied consciousness or the multiverse, please trust me when I say that even though we are buckets of meat, we are tremendously powerful buckets, capable of spawning entire universes simply by collapsing wavelengths.
See, I can spit unverified but cool sounding hypotheses too.

Haha what.
"Depends on the day" is a colloquialism or catch-all phrase for such factors.
It seems to me that your argument consists of listening to a person detail their considerations, then simply glaring at them and asking "but did you REALLY choose to eat tacos?"
It is as reliant upon mysticism as determinism.
