This question is so fundamentally bullshit that a new, stronger form of the word fundamental is required to truly describe it. Of course the universe is a simulation. There are either more fundamental processes occurring which explain the behavior of our observations, or it is the identity simulation. Newtonian laws are simulated with quantum laws, atoms are simulated with quarks, time is simulated by statistical relationships, and chemical interactions within the rules of the other abstractions are sufficient to simulate our observations. If you believe that this question is about whether or not there is some anthropomorphic supervisor of the simulation, then THAT is the hypothesis you should be putting forward, not that the universe is a simulation, which is meaningless.
