Ah, Revenge of the Nerds 2, such an underrated movie!
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition

Do you think the universe is real?
|
We can only extrapolate back 13.7 billion years (m/l), literally, and absolutely, something was going on, many things in fact (like an infinite #), for an infinite duration before.
Probably orgies, lots and lots of orgies. The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
Of course the universe is real. Really real for realsies. But all the matter and energy IN the universe is imaginary.

In that case, the complete lack of orgies in my life experience must be taken as proof of entropy. 
It's real in the sense that it isn't imaginary.
It's not real in the sense that the totality of the universe doesn't exactly feature in my life. 
Well some people think that if it's possible to simulate a universe through technology, that inevitably there would be far more simulations of universes than actual universes and therefore it's more likely we are living in a simulation than the actual universe.
But no, that's bullshit, the universe is real. ![[Image: dcep7c.jpg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i46.tinypic.com%2Fdcep7c.jpg)
I don't believe the Universe is real. The Universe doesn't agree. We're going to settle it in the car park.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
Which one? (I'm a star in mine.)

I would say that the most efficient simulation of a universe could only be a universe. Therefore, nothing COULD simulate a universe.
