  • I suppose it really depends on figuring out what consciousness really is.

    If we’re talking about pure digital information then nothing is actually moved, it’s just copied and written to a new location. From the perspective of the new mind, continuity would be preserved and it would think it had simply changed places. The old mind (if it survives the scanning/transfer process) would still be outside the simulation and see a new copy of itself in there.

    On the other hand, if consciousness is some kind of understandable phenomena, with even more sci-fi tech we might be able to simply scoop it out and put it somewhere else. In that case it would be the same person.













  • I usually have a pretty bad attention span with games so it’s wild to me that I’ve been playing warframe almost exclusively for nearly 3 months now, and I’m super excited for 1999 later this year.

    I also really need to get back into the satisfactory server I’ve been hosting for some friends and finish the turbofuel power plant for them.

    Finally, Monomyth came out in early access recently so I’ve been savoring it. Arx Fatalis had the absolute coolest fantasy setting I have ever seen, as well as just being an awesome game. Monomyth is a love letter and I couldn’t be happier.
