We could be computer simulations

I've thought about this before, so it's not really new to me, but it's amazing that they have something to back it up.

 

They have absolutely no hard evidence, it's just as I said before:

A hopeful explanation to phenomena. Or to put it another way, a possibility.

 

That also doesn't mean it's not true. The articles, specifically the last one I linked to, have made some very good points that support their hypothesis.

 

Just because they proved it's possible, doesn't necessarily mean it's evidence to prove we're currently computer simulations. Regardless, it does make you think.

 

this reminds me of the age old evil demon hypothesis. sorry if this has been mentioned already.

I never said that.

The problem is the fact that there is too many holes, lack of formulas for certain phenomena, possible lack of power in our instruments for observations, etc.

 

This.

Also this thread has just made my mind go on a mad thinking rant now, time for a shower.
