Work out that math, and "the odds are nearly infinity to one that we are all living in a computer simulation," writes Ed Grabianowski for io9.

Infinity to one that we are a simulation, and probably a simulation made by a simulation? That's what you call a good bet....
Is everyone relieved? If all this shit was real, that would be incredibly fucked-up, but this is just a game that's about over. Whew. Change the set-up and try again.
Anyway, fireflys are explained. They are just an app, someone threw them in just because they are so cool.
