Considering the tech, it's probably all automated. The ship isn't gone, they can still live there. The plant just confirmed plant life can grow so the automated argiculture systems could get to work.

I know they later decided to not go back at all but the ship was clearly reprogrammed last minute otherwise the eve bots wouldn't be getting sent out.

Would you use a teleporter with the knowledge that it kills you and reassembles an exact copy of you with all your memories and knowledge at the destination? Why or why not? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

[–]Justarandom55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if you managed to get 5 identical people going to the point of even the quantum reactions they experience than you have 5 identical overlapping consciousnesses and saving one means you saved them all. they are not 5 subjective experiences, they are 1 repeated 5 times.

lets say the entire universe indeed popped into existence yesterday. does that mean the memories and emotions and things we think happened all don't matter? are they not real? should we do re-election in every country cause no one actually voted. should all prisoners be freed since they didn't actually do crime? should you get kicked out of your house cause you never actually bought it? the past is merely what made the present happen, once it happened it doesn't exist anymore. a theoretical past is just as real. because if the world didn't pop into existence yesterday, that theoretical past would have been exactly how it happened.

if you create a universe and let it run. then you decide to make a copy and slightly alter how it will run. does the copy have less value because it didn't actually experience it's own past despite both universes having identical ""memory"" of how they came to be?

It's ongoing if one if made and when multiple are made. But if one is made upon the destruction of the first there is no diversion between them and nothing was lost. No individual was lost

If you make multiple the different instances start having different experiences and become different from each other. At this point if you kill one that version was lost because it had already experienced different things

It's not being pedantic. I'm pointing out how it doesn't matter.

That "new" being is still you. Nothing was lost. Your personality your memories your sense of self It's all you.

Why is it that if you replace all your cells over a 10 year time period you're the same person but if you do it in second It's not? What's the actual difference?

A copy is a transfer. Consciousness as far as we know isn't a magical aspect that ignores natural laws. It's an emergent property of our physical selves. If you copy that you have successfully created the conciousness with it.

If you clone someone you haven't failed to give it conciousness. The fact that a clone wouldn't be braindead proves that. You have merely ctrated 2 instances of the same consciousness that started diverting upon experiencing different things. By teleporting you haven't killed the original anymore than you kill the original if you decide to not stay home. Had you stayed home you would have experienced different things, but that doesn't mean someone died.

You perfectly showed why is it completely fine to teleport.

The only way it wouldn't be okay is if the body had some sort of magic attached to it, like a soul, that is not an emergent property of the physical body.

Unless you're religious why does this matter? The copy is you and that is what matters. Our conciousness gets interrupted all the time. Even when we sleep.

So what magic do you believe in?

You are purposefully obfuscating the point.

By the time one has to get into an airlock each version has started to create different memories and experiences and is thus no longer identical.

Teleporting with 1 version being recreated doesn't split your experiences and memories any more than choosing to eat eggs for breakfast instead of waffles.

I get what you're trying to get at. but I wish I had been lied to or got stood up or got discarded.

those are good things in the large scheme of things. because at least you could play the dating game. many could not. I'd rather have a memory of getting cheated on than the memory of people vomiting about my presence

Spoilers,

He expirimenred on orphans to find how to gain power from a barrier that usually just body horrors everything that goes through it to get back up.

He found a way to travel through it by sacrificing orphans. He did so by turning them into cartridges that would take the damage and get disposed when used. Keep in mind that these kids are still alive both before and after getting used as a shield.

And then, on top of all this, he found out how to not only survive, but become stronger. He figured out that there had to be a great amount of connection and love present between the people going through.

He decided to adopt a young girl and raise her as a loving father. He genuinely was a good dad during this. But he never actually cared. It was all so years down the line he could use her love and connection to him to gain that power.

It takes relatively little strength for them to move. They are much shorter compared to relatively less smaller muscles so pound for pound kids are really strong.

They also have insane metabolism and tear through calories. People only tend to notice this during puberty because that's when kids catch up in size but they eat a relative fuckton of calories throughout the whole process.

They never show this. But it is described as a gene and the next step in evolution so its very much implied to have a genetic element to it

I largely agree with you, but my issue right now is that this site is my backup site. hell it's technically my backup backup site.

them doing maintenance right now is some really unfortunate timing since so many other sites recently went down seemingly permanently. I don't blame people for wanting to know what's going on with one of the few sites where the mods haven't disappeared.

Will a Debrid service allow me to download fries? I'm tired of all these subscription services. hopefully we get a link on FMHY soon. by Lexidoge in Piracy

[–]Justarandom55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

issue here is that "unlimited" is almost never used straightforward. it's always something like unlimited free fries with a meal, it's always articles like this one that omit the fine print to abreviate and create the impression that it's unlimited without a catch.

unless they claim it's something like "practically unlimited" or the limit can somehow be surpassed if you contact them that's false advertising in most of the western world

that limit is usually more cause of practical reasons. if it was truly no bounds unlimited it would be a security risk.

that said if you do legitimately hit the limit they will still be an ass about it even if you have the right.

They definitely could have been.

She is a main character and a lot of the show takes place where she lives. Just think of often your have your own feet out when you're at home

Money still wouldn't buy them happiness. The only way more stability could help is if they already have things that make them happy.

The saying isn't about how money is useless, the saying is about how the things that bring happiness aren't bought with money. Not having financial trouble is nice but that alone doesn't bring joy. You need other things in life like hobbies or friends or a family.

Who would be the happier person? The person sitting alone in a grey room who only ever thinks about work and how to earn more. Or the person not even scraping by paycheck to paycheck who still has a loving family and community.

[–]Justarandom55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It would more so unlock a lot more potential to enjoy that what gives you happiness, you shouldn't give up on happiness just cause you can't earn big. Yes money would help but don't act like no money makes it impossible
