If the universe is a simulation, then what are "we" in the simulation other than a telepresent bot? Here's a direction of thought I have not really indulged in very much over the years because I didn't think it was worthwhile. However, now that I'm a quantumonicist instead of a cryonicist, and I now view myself and others as telepresent meat-bots with antenna brains that simulcast/transieve signals from a quantum-self, it's worth taking a deeper look at the universe as simulation.
