You know those sci-fi teleporters like in Star Trek where you disappear from one location then instantaneously reappear in another location? Do you trust that they are safe to use?

To fully understand my question, you need to understand the safety concerns regarding teleporters as explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQHBAdShgYI

I wouldn’t, because the person that reappears aint me, its a fucking clone. Teleporters are murder machines. Star Trek is a silent massacre!

    The mind doesn’t stop during sleep. We’re not fully aware, that’s all.

      Mine stops. If I were to fall asleep (which I now won’t), and someone were to transport my body away, and the mind resumed running at it’s new location, the future copy of me would be very confused.

        Ah, I guess you know more about how the brain works that neuroscientists do.

        I’m done.

          No really, when I woke up this morning, I had absolutely NO IDEA what happened in the previous 8 hours. It’s like my entire mind just blanked for that time. Wtf?
