@arbitrary Don't think so sorry: /

Yes, among other problems it might be turned off

@TimothyScriven Is there some reason to believe that, if we are living in a simulation, it is more probable that the simulation would be turned off during our subjective lifetime than that, if we are not living in a simulation, the universe might suddenly and inexplicably end during our subjective lifetime? It's not at all obvious to me that there is such a reason. If we are living in a simulation, all we can say is that the simulation has never, to our knowledge, been turned off. How is that different from what we can say if we are not living in a simulation, i.e. that the universe has never, to our knowledge, suddenly and inexplicably ended?

if simulations matter, are they real?
