boy this really depends. Is it a hive mind kind of thing or are we independent? Is there a prime? Do the duplicates have a shelf life or will they live a normal life once duplicated? I mean if they were independent and lived a normal life. Like some kind of spontaneous clone where we shared memory up to the point of duplication. Well then I would never do it. It would be worse than having children. If it were like a hive mind and we could re-absorb and such. mmmm. not sure as its basically a super power at that point. would likely use it casualy or as need be. Would definately make any carrying task easier. Even then it sorta depends how the hive mind works in terms of multitasking and such.
Congratulations! You have been promoted to Senior Overthinker #2! Make your way down this corridor (ignore the bodies) and collect the prize!
Pretty sure what I'd do would technically count as masturbation.
I'd do it somewhere where I could get caught just so I get to say, "It's consensual"
In unison
Perfection
We could both get jobs and then we could probably afford to buy a house
Gym partner
Easier/cheaper to cook for 2
Just a lot of life would be easier if I had someone I could trust 100% who also has all the same preferences and goals as me
That's pretty much what my wife is to me.
Big reason why I really want to start dating again. Practicalities.
Have an existential crisis.
Only an existential crisis? What about existential crises?
I tell you what Iβd do, man. Four chicks at the same time.
Are you a chick, or are you expecting 4 random women to want to be with you and duplicates of you? I think most Lemmites have a hard time just finding one woman.
Fuckin' A, man.
Aside from practical jokes that make people think they are losing their mind. Like walk by someone by themself, have another me wearing something else walk by, and then have like 100 of me all wearing different clothes crowd around that person chanting "you need to wake up!", then we all just walk away in silence.
I guess I could start a business and exploit myself for personal gain.
I might also let some intrusive thoughts win from time to time.
So basically I would have multiplicitous fun until the government put me in a lab or asked me to one man army some shit.
I probably wouldn't. Over time the multiple versions of me would diverge in terms of experiences and opinions. And knowing how stubborn I can sometimes be I'd probably get very annoyed with my own clones, which in turn will make me dislike myself more. It'll force me to perceive my own behaviour as an outsider, which will make me judge myself even harder.
One of me is enough :3
Have you seen that episode of my hero academia where he does just that and practically takes the city over?
Something to that effect but something beneficial like digging a trench into the desert to make it a rain forest.
Why would you ruin the ecology of a perfectly good desert and a body of water to establish a non-native ecosystem that can't sustain itself without human intervention? You can't even have a rain forest where the rainfall is less than 25cm a year just by redirecting water in a trench.
duplicate duplicate, unless there's something you'd prefer with multiplidicity
Probably take a nap and still get shit done.
Not duplicate myself
Like Dupli-Kate in Invincible (hive mind/can merge back together)? Or like Robert Angier in The Prestige (separate clone/entity)?
If the former, I'd probably use it to sow chaos amongst my political opponents (fascists) for as long as they exist.
If the latter...meh, maybe the same, but far more sparingly, as the creation of a new consciousness rather than just an extension of my own implies a far more unpredictable outcome of my/our actions.
Implement my list of ideas. Although it is pretty likely we will end up watching YouTube videos together
Like a twin, or like I have both bodies and am conscious in both? Nevermind, I'm not interested in doing either of those. Now, if I could duplicate my husband I have some ideas though.
Yes? Continue...
Better to keep it clean I think ;)
fuck myself.
I have a gay party with ourselves and nobody will know about it.
I would not. There's enough suffering in the world.
Catalog my media library, finally.
I wouldn't mind only working every few days, but getting up to speed on what I missed would be problematic. People would probably think my memory had gone to shit. If I could solve that problem then I guess I'd make a couple duplicates and we'd share responsibilities. I don't think we'd each need an independent income since we like the same things and can just share, or take turns.
Honestly I could summarize my day to myself in five minutes or so. It isn't that complicated.
Each kid and wifey could have individual Daddy/hubby attention at the same time. My yard and home would look immaculate because my ADHD task burnout could be overcome by calling in a new helper.
I could probably make bank and help improve the lot of humanity by allowing my duplicates to go through controlled medical and scientific testing.
At some point one of me would figure out how to leverage this ability for the absolute betterment of humankind. That would probably become a driving mission for the collective me at that point.
I'd donate a lot of bodies to science
No further comments.
I'd make 1 to go to work for me. Other than that I really don't mind the rest of my life.
is duplicate yourself come with cost ? Not now, but further cost ?, and danger ?
For example:
one of your clone don't want to disappear when you want to.
one of your clone want to become 'main' and want to make you disappear.
You gotta force yourself into believe that once you make a clone, the original have to die, and volutary dispose of yourselves.
Volutary action is much more easy and less messy than having a duel
You must be a blast at parties. You can't think of one professional or sexual idea you can do with this power?
Ffs you could pool resources together and with like 8 of you get 8 incomes. Or you could work a 2.5 day work week with one of them. Is there a subfield you always wanted to explore but couldn't? Make a copy and have them do it.
Also threesomes.
I would cure my loneliness.
More like who would I do π
Honestly, watch me do some shit and die of cringe.
What is the unconditional part here?
I was looking for a word that might immediately resolve questions regarding how it might work and the like, to avoid those follow-up questions and free people up to answer however they imagine it would work. It's...Kinda worked? Aside from a few replies like this, which I don't mind, I just wanted to encourage people to roll with it as they will
Yeah sorry was a bit tired and could not immediately see what the word unconditionally added. My intention was not pedantry. To answer I suppose I am not sure that I would duplicate myself, causes some problems with identity - for example do the people who love you love them? I think it lives under the category of possibly making things worse, identical twins don't laugh all day because of how easy life is. The most likely outcome is they would move away and we hardly talk.
Nothing. I should be limited to one or less.
If I can duplicate myself, but that duplicate is in other gender (i.e: changing a gender gene would be so hard, isn't it).
There would be so much fun.
Enter a feedback loop of embarrassment and ruin Boimler's day
Do only half of the annoying tasks.
If we all pitch in, we each only have to do one-quintillionth of a thing.
Gang bang my wife
Well, not that. I don't get along well with people who are too much like me.

Ah the unconditional part.
Touche random internet friend
Like those in Chinese web novel, you create a clone, the clone kill you and become you :D

You would be an ecological terrorist.
lmao, so my thought was completing the Qattara Depression Project.
They seemed to think it would work. But I dunno, I just dig.
Murder the duplicates and use the delicious me-at to end world hunger.
Duplicate duplicate or Multiplicity duplicate?
