And just to reiterate to the confused masses like a former friend on Facebook that lost his shit on me....
I have positively stated many many times
that I DO NOT BELIEVE THE UNIVERSE IS A SIMULATION OR IN A COMPUTER!!!! (but it might be a type of nested story) the simulation idea is an abstract thought bridge to understand what the universe really is however or as to what the thing the universe is in is... It works on very similar principles such as error correcting code being found in string theory and quantum mechanics etc....
