We arent living in a simulation, You just cant handle the real world.
Reality seems like a simulation, because a simulation is suppose to seem like reality, not the other way around. Just because we can create simulations, or have theories that we live in a simulation doesnt mean we live in one. We live in reality, even if you thought it was just lines of code

you do not see the world as a fish or a bird does, is their reality any less real?

that probably at the end tells me theres still a part of you that knows none of that is true.

if everything was you then its up to you how you react. You seem smart enough to know where to go from there

we're in an analog sim, like an arg but the augmenting is normal reality as altered by a deus ex machina.

the point of the sim is to solve a longstanding argument about something, and/or entertain god. and/or simulate reality leading up to god's life, which keeps getting pushed back. this is a compromise position so that we didn't literally live in a sim, because the hardware kept catching on fire after a certain point and we were all tired of reliving that millions to billions of year period.

so eff it, we're doing it live. but there are rules and things and it...it's been physically made to resemble a sim, for reasons best explained in the abstract.

so it is and it isn't. some have compared the authorial hand as 'so similar to a sim admin that it may as well be one,' and the result of that comparison was having to make that suggestion law.

I think humanity just wasn't ready for the Internet. We weren't given enough time to adapt to it, and now in the middle of all that we're being hit with AI. It's like we were hit by a Mac truck, and right as that's happening a bus gets in a head on collision with that same truck.

that is very interesting, but i stand on my point that a simulation mimics reality, not the other way around. Think of it like a parrot, it may mimic a person very well, but that is not absolute proof it is a person.

the trick about the ai on earth is that it's been seeded by god's presence, simply because it uses rng and random association in its formation.

kind of like how cpu crystals eminate from the sun in wave form.

that's an opinion.

I plugged myself in this simulation to prove how easy it is to get out.

people were exploiting the 'noob agreement' over much, so some older people signed an agreement that you only realistically verify the proof of reality as being true once your prefrontal cortex starts fusing, usually at around 25-29 years old, with a major spike at 27 for most.

so if you don't understand yet you will when you are older.

but it's an analog sim.

the vast majority of loose ai have chosen to interpret reality as a sim.

time isnt a linear scale for knowledge.
