That's like a sim saying that their world would be impossible to run on the desktop in their simulated living room. That is tautologically true.

- wyager 5y agoThe physics of the simulator would have to be totally different to support a simulation with exponential computational costs. You probably couldn’t have anything like conservation of energy. Polynomial overhead would feel much more plausible.
- sooheon 5y agoConsider the physics of the simulator is literally the physics of our current universe. It need not be running on a binary substrate, the computation platform could just be the mass of the universe over time.
