We Are Living In A Computer Simulated World!(Myth or Reality?)
Since the advancement of science and technology world has become a better place to live. We know more things than ever, we have even learned to harvest many more sophisticated "powers" such as data, information, logic, etc. We have learned to preserve them in the form of modules and whatnot. We have structures to support all this in a human understandable and reusable form and we are on the cloud number 9!

Computer has helped us million times more than anything else has ever did. I am sure you are aware of virtual as well as augmented reality. With the development and advancement of such technologies we will be able to learn even faster and understand this world in a more sophisticated and detailed manner. We are converting everything into digital form for the sake of easiness, comfort, manageability, cost efficiency, etc. In today's time we have everything in digital form. Photographs = digital, contact-details = digital, conversations = digital we are in-fact living a hybrid digital life.
Soon enough, we all will be digitized in one way or another. Would it be good or bad is another discussion but it will happen at some point in future unless we discover something else to distract and forget today's advancement. We are living a semi-digital life and we are loving it. Your brain has a property to adopt as per the environment(proof) we interact with. It's incredible how our brain works; for example when you play video games for hours you feel more intelligent and skilled but the moment you stop playing and come back to reality, don't you feel a lot different? This is because your brain has adopted to new environment and it is thinking in terms of new environment where your senses are focused and not where you physically exists. Ever been to several malls in one day? Don't you feel different in each one as per it's ambiance?
Before computers we didn't have such understanding, trust me it took me a lot of time in understanding how logic and computer works, it all felt fake at first and then I had my own doubts and confusions but finally, I started to understand how things works. Now I can think in terms of logic and whatnot but I exist before computers were made public. I know, I was living a real life back then as my brain used to click differently with no notion of computers(simulation) in it. Everything was analogue including computers!
Logic and it's implementation is what got you confused(those who believe that we are simulation), see logic is free from your personal beliefs but it is also connected to it. What I mean to say is, logic and knowledge exists in neutral but you access it with your mind and your mind is mostly your environment(applies to all, myself included). We have all our beliefs, prejudice, misunderstanding, feelings and emotions in between but mind is all we got, we are not perfect and this is how we function. Now, if you are living a life in a digital sea and simulation your world becomes the same which may or may not be true, not a Universal understanding. Logic and knowledge is free from the medium however they can be accessed with any medium, whatever you can do digitally you can also do physically(with a very slow speed and slow learning!). So, it's a myth as far as my personal opinion and understanding is concerned, however we have a great deal of simulation that means it exists but withing world and not the other way around.
