If Reality Were A Simulation, Which Pill Would You Take?

The blue pill. it doesn't matter which reality is true. Even in a simulation there are decisions and consequences. This would not change if you left the simulation. Just because one reality is true and the other is fabricated does not make the non simulated reality a better experience. Imagine this thought experiment: It is the far future. All stars have burned out and all that is left are embers of neutron stars and black holes. In this stage, the universe emits essentially no light. Hypothetically a civilization could harvest the rotational energy of black holes to provide energy. But since there is no available light, there is nothing to see or anything that is worth seeing. This civilization may decide that a simulated universe is more interesting to interact in than a dark universe.
