I'm still skeptical. The article keeps referring to the present. Seems to me that if you go back in time, the present becomes the future, and I believe I can make choices that affect the future.
Then there's that aforementioned predetermination argument. Am I really making choices, or do I only think I'm making choices?

If you think you're making choices, then you are. That your choices were known beforehand changes nothing.
