Quantum physicists conclude that existence cannot possibly be a computer simulation

"But what if that means our whole solar system could be, like one tiny atom in the fingernail of some giant being? That means one tiny atom in my fingernail could be.......could be one little tiny universe!"

Men in Black all over again.....

So...I take it you're not very familiar with Jules Verne's works, or at least not anything beyond 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea or Journey to the Center of the Earth.

His novel, From the Earth to the Moon, was written in 1865 (note: this is over 100 years before Apollo 11 landed on the Moon), & talks about a post-US Civil War group of artillery engineers & manufacturers that had formed a club to perform experiments with bigger & more powerful guns, but were looking for a challenge worthy of their intellect...& their president decided they should try to build a gun powerful enough to fire a manned projectile capable of reaching the Moon...

I don't believe you were following what I was saying. I was explaining that if we were in a simulation.. everything could be controlled. So to state that a computer could never be powerful enough based on data that you could have gathered (while in said simulation)... the data might not be reliable. If I made a simulation, one of the first steps would be to remove the idea that it's a simulation to all those within.

Perhaps you quoted the wrong person. I wasn't supporting the people stating it couldn't be done... I was attempting to explain how the whole act of attempting to figure out such a thing, is inherently flawed.
