  • A physicist from the University of Portsmouth (UK) believes he has found clues to suggest we're living in a computer simulation.  Here's what we know:
  • The physicist's clues:
  1. Limits to how fast light and sound travel; this suggests that they are governed by the speed of a computer processor
  2. He sees symmetry saving computational energy and power
  3. Elementary particles are like pixels
  4. Code for the advanced computer simulation is the law of physics
  5. Professor Melvin Vopson believes the physical behavior of our information resembles the process of compressing code in a computer or the computer deleting it
  • Bottomline:  If you ever feel like a small player in a massive production, this may be the answer.
