We're just part of a simulation, being run in
another universe. :)

There was a movie called "The Thirteenth Floor" made in 1999
that had this as the basis, Computer simulations as all encompassing
alternate universes. In case you thought the movie sucked or,
further that is doesn't apply to the 10 year rule... It is based on
a story "Counterfeit World / Simulachron-3", published in, get this,
1964... and serialized for German TV in 1974 by Fassbinder.
Just in case you thought VR was a unique idea.
Galouye must've had something going, when you think of what
computers were actually doing in 64.
