    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Reincarnation without death It follows logically that there is a nonzero probability that you end up reincarnating even though your body didn't actually die, the probability for this is greater with solution2 since there isn't any time delay. If you were to switch body you may not actually...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Solution2 You can reincarnate into the future and this can be outside your lightcone. The past is what's determined and the future is not determined. This allows for instant reincarnation to a location 10 billion light-years from your current location, this can both be both forward and backward...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Solution1 You can only reincarnate into a future lightcone. Thus your conscious experience now must be the continuation of a conscious experience in your past lightcone. This can be explained by your consciousness being tied to a particular quantum wavefunction. Thus the collapse of the...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Special relativity and reincarnation It is assumed that your conscious experience is linked to a time-irreversible collapse of the wavefunction. What you do in a future life isn't allowed to affect a past-life in any way. You cannot reincarnate anywhere in your past light-cone. If you...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    The flow of time The real flow of time is the irreversible collapse of the wave-function, until the collapse takes place time has not truly moved forward and thus what seems to be spooky action at a distance will be observed 250 251 To you it seems like time is moving forward smoothly but...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Rational character vs rational decisions In a situation where you are judged by a character you might end up in a situation where taking what seems to be the rational decision actually isn't since your character itself is being judged. Let's have the option to loan 1000$ that you really need...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Free will and criminal justice Punishment is about social control, it's not about fairness. 0. Deter people from doing actions you dislike. 1. Rehabilitate people 2. Prevent criminals from continue doing things you view as bad. 3. Personal gain (such as having someone reduced to being your...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Free will Free will is simply indeterminism meaning the outcome cannot be known in advance, quantum mechanics seems to work in such an indeterminate manner 249 If our consciousness itself is quantum mechanical we will have conscious free will since our conscious decisions themselves would be...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Quantum theories of consciousness Quantum information cannot be copied or destroyed, only transferred, thus you cannot copy or destroy a quantum soul, it can only be transferred. You cannot measure a quantum soul since a quantum state will collapse when you try to measure it. One quantum...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Classical theories of consciousness If consciousness is just classical computations there could be multiple physical manifestations of the same mental state. If you made a perfect replication of a brain and the environment then we would have 2 brains for the same conscious experience meaning it...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Mechanisms for reincarnation If your soul is tied to a quantum system said system will eventually take a form that results in you becoming conscious again, in this picture the collapse of the wave function is the manifestation of free will and every quantum system is an independent soul. One...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Our universe If no new big bang takes place in the future Boltzmann Brains could still emerge via quantum fluctuations 220 221 thus you would be infinite times more likely to have a conscious experience in a Boltzmann brain than an actual biological brain given infinite time. Current research...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Interplanetary reincarnation One common objection against reincarnation is that the number of humans alive today is far more than in the past, this however is not actually a real issue since our planet can be just one of infinite many (given some cyclic model of our universe). It is very...

    Consciousness & reincarnation

    Why you are experiencing consciousness in your current body now does need an explanation. One explanation is that your consciousness now is a continuation of your earlier consciousness. But why this body rather than some other body? This can be explained by something like reincarnation, the...

    PS5 vs PC vs XBOX SX

    The PS5 SSD didn't live up to the hype While it is a huge improvement over the the mechanical hard-drive PS4 had it really has not delivered the vision mark cerny talked about here: Unfortunately sony had to cut costs by using a cheap storage solution (probably QLC flash) it doesn't perform...

    Not so great PC games

    Responding to criticism about the review (genshin impact) Some people pointed out that there are a not of mechanism i have not even reached yet such as unlocking more characters (such as a healer eliminating the need to use food). I disagree since i view the early parts of the game to also be...

    Not so great PC games

    Genshin impact review The game has a compelling story and nice visuals but the actual gameplay is a bit lacking. Controls 7 of 10 Your control over your character is actually rather limited, this does depend on your character but generally it isn't great. When you climb you can only jump in a...

    PS5 vs PC vs XBOX SX

    While the XSX/XSS solution is easy to install it's limited to 1TB and the performance you get out of it is very bad for the price. https://nascompares.com/2021/08/03/ps5-ssd-storage-upgrades-why-it-is-not-difficult-and-does-make-sense/ I do not even think the xbox solution is more convenient...
