It makes no sense for it to be a simulation like a computer simulation. It’s a simulation like a dream is a simulation. Everything in the universe you observe is you. Waking up from the dream is realising this, and realising nothing exists, just being.
Like a dream, you are just me. The floor I walk is me. The air I breathe is me. Everyone I meet, everything I feel, is just me. Nothing is real except I.

Does that mean that one of us isn’t real?

So I’m still just having sex with myself? I should have known it was too good to be true.
We’re all only having sex with you
I followed you (Egg Theory) right up until that last line.
Slash dot? The tech website is the only real thing?
I, me 😆
Damn, was really hoping there was some deeper stuff I was missing. So you’re a subscriber to Egg Theory then?
It’s called that from that little story about god talking to a recently deceased dude with the end result being that this universe is an egg?
Awesome. I guess I’m an egg theory subscriber.
It’s not called the Egg Theory. Its called Advaita Vedanta and it’s the oldest religion/metaphysics we have written records for.
And it can indeed get pretty deep. You should read Shankara‘s commentaries on the Vedas.
I think that if life is a simulation, it’s tech assisted dreaming, letting one dial in specifics for consistent experiences
