predeterminism in that, everything has happened. because there is infinity, everything needs to have happened, at point infinity.
predeterminism in that, the amount of infinite possibilities, realities, occurrences that happen in infinity, have their certain occurrences/nature. ie, you may decide to take an action, make a choice, and therefore change your future. but in the end, what would happen would be you changing the path you, as a focus point, travel, in a different path of unfolding events, hence, a reality. the reality which you just left with your choice, will still keep existing.
predeterminism and limitation of free will in that, the choices you can make and the different realities/fate paths you can hop into are limited by your suitability to that path. simply, you cannot shoulder the weight of a planet as an entity in the current reality you are in, your point in the reality framework does not allow it. therefore, you cannot decide to shoulder the weight of a planet, and start doing that in this reality. the realities that you can immediately hop into, do not include that one. this is an extreme example, but it shows the concept well. the main concept can be applied to any decision, like, marrying a certain person, or another. or, drinking a glass of water in 3 sippings, or 5 sippings. all of these change reality.
basically free will, freedom is limited by the framework of reality you are in. you cannot hop into a fundamentally different reality, without being able to fit into that reality.
