  • Why would the “original” be able to perceive itself in two places? Are you able to perceive yourself in the past? That was literally you, yet you only perceive the present. There is no reason why you should be able to perceive a brain identical to yours but separated in space either.

    Also the point is the “original” doesn’t make sense in the first place, both the copy and you would perceive the same thing in your hypothetical case, because you are the same.


  • What is your “original mind” though? Is there such a thing? Are you the same you you were last night? You only “Inhabit yourself” in the present, so the continuity of your mind is just an illusion. For the clone, they would be as “you” as you are, and in fact it would be impossible to tell the difference between you and your clone for anyone, including yourself. Maybe you’re the clone?









  • On music alone… I have 774 albums on my library, of which I probably legit own like 20-30. At a conservative 10€ per album, that’d be around 7500€ on music. I also have 81 series, of which some of them are dropout.tv, which I’m legit paying for, so let’s say 75 series that I pirate. I have no idea of the real cost, but let’s say each series is 100€ in bluray. That’s another 7500€. I also have 202 movies, of which I own some, but not in bluray, so let’s assume I’d have to buy all of them. At, let’s say, 20€/movie, that’s another 4000€.

    So, in total I’d say I have around 19000€ on pirated content. There’s no way I could pay for all of it lol, but I also haven’t watched/listened to all of it, so I wouldn’t have bought it even if I could.

    Edit: oh and I forgot about videogames. But I don’t pirate many of those lately anyway, since steam is so convenient, and I also have a big catalogue of free games from Epic. But I did pirate maaaany in the past. When I was a kid I would rent them and then download a “nocd” crack lol, those were the days.
