The Internet already is a simulation of real places and things.

Thoroughly enjoyed your comment 😊
What do you mean by “simulation”?
Simulation as in “the internet is not real and our computers somehow have everything already stored on them and there’s no data transfer happening across telco infrastructure” ?
(Because that’s easily disproven - you can message your friends and tell them to meet you somewhere, and when they meet you there, that proves data was moved from your device to their device. )
If that’s not what you mean, please explain (in detail) what you mean by “the entirety of the internet was a simulation”
You discussed some of the possibilities. How about like an MMO where some of the people are real and some are NPC but the entirety is being ocastrated by a single entity.
Look at phenomena that should be totally random, and try to find evidence that they were produced by pseudorandom number generators.
I know a couple of people in real life who are also on the internet. If the entirety of the internet was a simulation, I’d ask them about stuff they’d posted and they wouldn’t have any idea what I’m talking about.
All of it? Like people I know IRL are actually fake online or something?
Was about to point this out. I’d just go to one of my IRL friends and have him send me an E-Mail/PM/whatever while i watch him do it.
Umm.

I think therefore I am. If reality is fake it’s such a convincing fake that it effectively doesn’t matter.

I think, therefore I am
From that we can affirm that at least one thing exists [me], thus the one and true question remains: Why does something exists instead of nothing ?
