I've been thinking more and more into this and here's what I got:
We are given "reality" through our senses, so there is reality then us but our senses in between the two. While the idea of our senses simply lying to us has been already given, I'm here to question: what if our life itself is just a computer telling us what we smell, hear, taste, see and feel? For instance, when I look to my lower right the computer sends signals that equate to my eyes seeing my keyboard. When i look to my upper left the computer tells me I am seeing a computer screen with text and color. As I move my hands to type these characters the computer tells me how they feel, how they sound and the alphabetical letters align with the sight of me pressing on them, along with the sound. What if? Is this really? Possible? How likely, if so?
