We are not in a simulation. A particle is only able to hold exactly as much information as is necessary to describe it, and hence is irreducible.
Any incomplete simulation, even to a tiny degree, leads to wildly inconsistent, and eventually incoherent conclusions.
Either our universe is a simplified, and thus unreliable, simulation, destroying any long term usefulness to would-be simulators ; or it is simply not a simulation at all.
if it's simulated why can we inspect our own bodies? wouldn't the ones who created the simulator stop from having the simulated lifeforms from inspecting themselves so deeply?
I see reality as a manifestation of a finite state within infinity, creating logic backwards into time trough observation of its quantum state. Even time itself gets recreated in every moment. It's just what's needed for this finite state to be this specific finite state.
Solipsism is an amazing philosophical idea, except for the brain in a vat. And so is the whole simulation theory, except for the artificial part.
Here's my proof....a dust in your eyes. Why? Why would anyone simulate us and give us dust in our eyes? Viruses, I can accept. But dust is not contagious or alive. It just happens to screw with you personally and in particular. Just you. So therefore there's no way we're a simulation.
Alright, come get me, I wanna see the mother ship!
