What if physicists find a way to bend space such that you'd be able to move instantly (through some sort of portal) between two extremely far places while staying at a normal speed?
Just because quantum teleportation has "teleoprtation" in its name, doesn't mean it's the only possible form of it.
Don't blame others for arguing without thinking if you haven't given it proper thought yourself.
You have really strong opinions on this considering most of this is purely theoretical.
AFAIK no wormholes were ever observed or created, and there are many theories on how they maybe created (artificially or naturally) and/or traversed.
Also, any I think any reasonable person would say you teleported if he saw you going through a portal.
We also don't understand consciousness, so no one really knows what happens when you use a 'suicide booth' like you imagine. Maybe it's even possible to just teleport your consciousness too.
Neither do you.
See, that's the problem with modern science reporting. People are so easily confused.
No. We have never teleported atoms.
We did the equivalent of a fax machine.
We took an atoms current state, sent that information down traditional communication lines, and copied it's state perfectly to another atom.
They call it Quantum Teleportation, but it has nothing to do with Sci-Fi teleportation as most people think of it.
Ok I have come to realize that lemmy is literally no better than reddit when it comes to people who are so arrogant in their ignorance.
Or the common denominator is you're clueless.
