Although, it'll probably be one of the coolest months for the next while.

Your fundamental premise is wrong. We do have knowledge about it because it's supposed to be the same app it was before. But lemmy instead of reddit.

And we're not talking a AAA game here where it'll cost 60 dollars and there's no reason to prepurchase. Apps are usually cheaper than a coffee.

I also ended up buying each version of sync and have registered for this one. It'll be an instant buy.

He made the format, not English.

Yeah, I've had the best experience with top 6 hours for all. Blocked a couple communities but not as many as I would've thought.

There is no reason what you describe should give rise to consciousness rather than a biological artificial intelligence. The sense of self, the perspective that feels like me peering out through my eyes, is not explained by anything you said.

A copy of me does not equal me because we'd both have separate senses of self. Having copied memories does nothing to affect that.

For me, when a website doesn't work in Firefox but does in Chrome or edge, most of the time the real reason is due to me switching from a browser with dozens of add-ons to one with 0.

Otherwise Firefox works fine everywhere.

Didn't he offer to buy it so he could sell a bunch of tesla shares without sinking the value? And then he tried to back out, but was forced to buy it.

Consciousness is not based on memory or else computers would be considered conscious.

And if according to what you're saying, a clone with all of your memories would mean you have two points of view. I could take your clone into a different room and you'd be able to tell me what they see. But it obviously wouldn't work like that because your own sense of self would still be locked in your head and the clone would get its own sense of self, albeit one with the same memories.

So you'd be fine with a scientist creating a perfect clone of you, and then killing you, letting the clone take your place?

If it had the same memories.
