i will never get to experience my mind being uploaded to a computer. i will be stuck in this fuck ass body forever until i’m gone. even if my shit got uploaded the fucking me.exe would get to be the incorporeal one instead of me. fuck this shit i wish someone would invent a usb stick to put my brain on so someone could off me and plug that bitch in to a macbook so at least some form of me could be happy.
>>43351157Yes
>>43351157imagine the dysphoria without having a body at all and just being codeimagine you're already in a simulation that you uploaded yourself into and the reason you have dysphoria now is the upload corrupted and gave you dysphoria
>>43351157if it turns out to be something like soma, then no
>>43351227The premise of my question is that it would be something like that. Like do you want out bad enough that even if it’s some other version of yourself gets the privilege of not having a body, you’d give it the chance.
>>43351193I sure hope that’s not why. Let’s go gambling what do I gotta lose
if I got to have a cyborg body then sure
>>43351260id take a cyborg body. ideally no body so i dont have to be sexed at all.
>>43351157play soma and then decide if you want to upload your brain
>>43351157“Mind uploading” is ontologically impossible.
>>43351926>>43351939nooo the somafags got to my kino mind upload thread fuuuuck :cc
>>43351939why?
>>43351157Maybe if I was old and wrinkly, and then hope that I get a humanoid body to play with (hopefully with some way to masterbate preloaded)
>>43351939>>43351951I’ve never played Soma.>>43351952Mind is an epiphenomenon of brain activity. A digital simulation of your mind isn’t your mind. You can’t upload your mind any more than you can upload your skin colour.
>>43352048>Mind is an epiphenomenon of brain activity. A digital simulation of your mind isn’t your mindthe question wasn't a digital simulation thoughthe question presupposes the possibility of moving your mind to a computer, which isn't "ontologically" impossible
there is no uniquely privileged continuer of your current line of experienceif you're in a situation where there are multiple continuers (nondestructive upload, running multiple instantiations of an upload, using QRNG to make decisions, etc.) all of them have an equal claim to be their predecessor>>43352048>Mind is an epiphenomenon of brain activity.you don't know what that word means
>>43352048not necessarily true, since strong internalism like this leads to neo dualism and the mereological fallacythat and the 'hard problem' can be dealt w/ by a unity of brain, body, and environment, where the locus of the mind is distributed across the interactionthe brain exists for, and is shaped by, those interactions arguably it resolves to an even stronger rejection of digital consciousness per se, and not only for uploading, since consciousness is contingent on continuous interactive processes unlike digital instantiation which is agnostic to constitution and environment, rendering such interactions meaningless
>>43351260Someday...
>>43351260ok but what if it's a shitty broken one like citizen sleeper...
>>43351157I am going to get rich within 5 years off of space stocks and upload myself into a space drone
>>43352075>>43352048>>43351926You mfs are missing the point of the exercise here. The question acknowledges that your continuous experience (“”your”” consciousness) isn’t necessarily what goes forward in the computer. I’m not presupposing a mechanism for how this works because I’m not going to solve the hard problem in the 5 minutes it took for the captcha. It’s a computer simulation of you, created from your memory and brain with fictional technology. The simulation is advanced and interactive enough that if it’s a robot body the “”mind”” feels exactly like a person and if it’s a simulation that only interacts within the simulation, then it’s a perfect electronic simulacrum of you.Do you give up living so some sort of simulated mind with your experience gets to live? Whether that is an electronic brain in a robot in our world, or a simulated being in a computer that doesn’t interact with the outside but doesn’t know any better, that’s up to you. But like, at least assume the technology is possible. If you don’t think it’s ontologically consistent or possible, your answer is just “no” lol it’s simple.
No but I would lock into the metaverse for ~5 years while I was feminizing and getting surgeries.
this is a dysphoria complaint thread we will have a philosophy thread tomorrow. i’m becoming a panpsychist to piss everyone off.
>>43353323real and goated behavior
>>43353333Esoteric quads>>43353335Jokes on you, I honmode irl
>>43351157It would be interesting to run a simulation of my brain to find out if my seizures are physical or psychogenic.
