Any idea we can come up with within the simulation has to be computable by the simulation itself. Since that is touring-complete, the simulation cannot predict its own outcome; therefore whoever runs the simulation probably doesn't know our fate yet.

Yes indeed, and I was making a terrible pun. 😄

Neither of those are "Terrible.". Especially when you learn that fear is just an imagination.
