But the tricky thing is that to store all the attributes of every particle in the universe requires all sorts of data to be stored somewhere; velocity; location, orientation, entanglement, spin and so on. So then that information becomes the fundamental level of the universe.
As I said above, it wouldn't be necessary to store every bit of information about the entire universe in a computer memory. All you need to do is be able to create what an individual perceives or "experiences." That automatically cuts way down on the amount of information you have to present to the experiencer to a workable level. It's not actual reality, it's only what somebody perceives to be reality.
Interesting ... That's like rendering out reality on demand for every observer. A paradox .The amount of info needed to do this is far less that the amount of suggested info in our universe.... Even current day internet surpasses the amount of data needed.

I think everyone misunderstands what scientists are trying to say. They done believe their is some computer somewhere creating everything. What they believe as a possibility it our space being 3 d is the illusion. We are seeing the shadows of higher dimension objects. So for us reality is simulated because we don't actually see the cause and it exists elsewhere.

Unless of course the information comes from an external source or even an internal source as of yet undetectable, possibly something to do with the dark matter and energies that comprise 95% of the rest of our universe?
Chances are our universe is not even the simulation but a simulation of a simulation if indeed it does turn out to be holographic, talk about going down the rabbit hole.
I noticed that people have a huge problem with understanding a hierarchy of realities. Like how could anyone not immediately understand that the sentence "this sentence is a lie" doesn't refer to it self.

Sheepishly is the first to raise hand: Always thought: "this sentence is a lie", referred to itself, in order to contemplate the liars paradox, which leads to a contradiction.
So if that's not what it refers to: Please enlighten this dummy. (And others whom were too shy to admit it).

I think you don't understand what "this sentence is a lie "is it creates a paradox how could a sentence be a lie if it tells us. It means it would have to be true but of course it's a lie.

I will gladly do so. All the words together make a sentence. Let's call this level A. The actual word sentence is a level down, say level B. In other words it's a statement about another statement. Statement A about statement B

No it doesnt and thank god your not a teacher. You don't seem to understand even basic ideas.
