Although not 100% identical on a molecular level they're both diamonds..
Cubic Zirconia is a diamond simulant, and is only visually similar to a diamond. I doubt that it could be used instead of a real diamond for this computing method, as the smart guys would have already thought of using a material many times less expensive than diamonds.

Okay, I get the idea behind this. And I believe I could scale it up no problem, someone find me some really big diamonds...

there's always these diamonds the size of the SUN. Imagine the processing power there.

Edit/update: such could very well, from a future perspective be one possible way for us to achieve Type I civilization status in utilizing the data processing power of crystallized white dwarf stars. Speculation of course.

Using diamond for cooling? That's freaking nuts. Computer components are already expensive as hell due to all the gold, nickle, and copper in them. I can't imagine how much it is going to cost me for DIAMOND cooling. I suppose I can kiss my liquid coolant system goodbye and start saving now

We are most definitely a simulation. I'm going to go ahead and say that we most definitely are. We have developed the quantum, and at some point we will run simulations. If we have, then our simulations will eventually run simulations, and so forth and so on. That means there will be a quantum redundancy to the infinite level...meaning, that we would be more likely than not, a quantum simulation as well...
You have just realized, that on this day...you were not real. Chin up, we may find a way "out" one day. But beyond that, it's wonderful to know that positive emotions may cause positive events to occur based off of programming.
Life is yours to live. Live it to the fullest, and enjoy every aspect of creation. See you at the omega point.
