Physic engines are pretty easy for us and we have simulated many different coherent universes. Most coherent models of universes result in nothing much happening at all. The parameters of our universe allow for sustained emergent complexity. This is a fact and it is not in dispute.
Still no source.
Anyway, even the fact that most coherent models of universes result in nothing much happening at all does not imply that ours is 'fine tuned' for pretty much anything. If anything, it only proves that emergent complexity has certain mathematical requirements which most current mathematical models are too simple to fulfill.
Good evidence for fine tuning would be evidence of the tuner, now wouldn't it?

More likely that Notch is improving on God's design, seeing as how a Minecraft world is much, much more hospitable and fine-tuned for the life of its inhabitants than ours.
Which wouldn't really be good for your picture of God, eh?
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
