not be dead. See, http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0212095v1 and

There is plenty of physical evidence that the universe is simulated by
a
finite state machine or a Turing machine.
1. The universe has finite size, mass, and age, and resolution
etc.

I assume there is also plenty of evidence that the universe is not
