If the Simulation Hypothesis is Correct We are All AIs
Author’s note: I have no way to authenticate the origin of the following as it arrived by email from an unknown sender three days ago with no explanation. It had the subject line of Simulatio Dubitabam (Latin for Simulation Skeptic) followed by the title of this post you see above. It was quite short and ended suddenly.

Finding my purpose
My name is John Winston. My story is the story of a guy who always seemed a little out of his element. Ever feel like you were waiting to finally arrive? If not, nevermind. However, for those who know what I'm talking about, you get it. At every point in my life, I was always waiting to finally feel like I fit in my own skin. Throughout being a kid, I couldn't wait to be a teenage. As a teenager, I couldn't wait to be an adult. As a young adult, I coudn't wait to get my career started, get married, and have kids. Finally after having all those things, I remember having a moment when I said to myself, "Is this it?"

Disney upgrades pass system
Disney is a place that people consider the happiest place on earth. While it’s not as fun, or as immersive as universal . I have noticed from recent news online a new pass system has been invoked . The genie plus is a pass system that works similar to universal. You just have to make the decision ahead of time . While it’s not as easy as universals system it is a step forward. I have to say I’m very excited . It’s a company we all love . Universal does have more perks for the park. It is also more creative when bringing things to life . But I’d say with the new lightening lane I’d be more excited about buying the tickets.

We Have Finally Arrived In Our Partially Simulated Universe
Today we continue our exploration of the partial simulation by trying to figure out what the heck to do next. As you may recall if you have read any of my earlier posts on this topic we have finally arrived at what I believe to be a very likely (perhaps even the most likely) of situations if indeed we are living in a (partial) simulation. Remember it must be partial because of the ‘too good to be true’ problem which I currently believe is a fatal flaw in all total simulation hypotheses I have yet encountered. Notice I say currently as I am prepared to be convinced otherwise by a strong argument as to why it is not. Until that time I maintain that the most likely scenario is that the universe is 50–75% simulated and we are living in it as 100% real beings (assuming a simulation hypothesis of any type is actually correct). So the fuck what, is what I am now asking myself and perhaps you are thinking along similar lines.
