RE: Physicists find we’re not living in a computer simulation The sci-fi trope might now be put to rest after scientists find the suggestion that reality is computer generated is in principle impossible, writes Andrew Masterson.

Definitely sounds like a very advanced math is involved. Proofs exist that show that it's impossible to do certain things. Like two cubes of positive integers can't sum to a cube of another integer. Which was done by a Mr. Wiles in the late 1990s. It is not a matter of imagination in that case. It is something that is too important to matter. There is nothing I am going to do differently if I am convinced either way.
