When a banned poster’s mind is uploaded, is the new consciousness deemed contiguous with the old and therefore still banned? In a teleportation accident, if a duplicate is created, can they get a second account? ---

We think that, I mean, \*I\* think that teleporter duplicates, clones, (_and parasitic aliens_) and parasitic aliens should be allowed their own separate accounts. ---

This seems prejudicial against symbiotic aliens. Why should a _parasitic_ alien be granted additional privileges just because it has a character flaw? ---

What!? Character flaw? Why you lousy, kumbaya-ing, commie-loving symbiote - how your kind ever evolved enough to crawl out of the stagnant pool you arose in, let alone travel out of your solar system, is beyond me. Everyone knows that parasitic aliens are the pinnacle of evolution. If we actually existed, we would be far superior to you hippie-like symbiotes. ---

I think it’s just wonderful that a child would know about double rainbows, and that the colors of the second rainbow are reversed - even if they did get the order of the colors wrong. > **[What causes a double rainbow?](https://wxguys.ssec.wisc.edu/2017/07/03/double-rainbow/)** > > The classic rainbow is a single, bright, colored arc. Red is the outermost color of this arc, and violet is always the innermost color.On occasion, you may have seen two rainbows at once. The lower rainbow is the primary rainbow and the higher,... As for the rest, it looks like a child’s diary: The family is having a steak cookout (with grill marks) after a day of fishing from the washtub, and seeing Bigfoot leaving a big blue footprint. ---

More evidence appeared overnight. The fact that this occurred on another neighbor’s walkway is proof positive, irrefutable corroboration of the truth. Which is out there. The crude human face shown in a rictus of agony is clear evidence that this race of visitors regrets their involvement Biden’s theft of the 2020 election and 9/11. How anyone can see this evidence and still remain in denial us beyond me [![](https://i.imgur.com/8M2bURi.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/8M2bURi.jpg) ---

I found, and bookmarked the post where I announced the SI unit to the whole world via the SDMB. Unfortunately, the records of derivation, proofs, and analytical studies on the genesis of one “Just” of power fell into “_The **SamuelA** Method of Science_:” one heapin’ helpin’ of handwavin’ with little-to-no factual basis, but a sh\*t-ton of comedy. > [@Atamasama](#): > > Add 90% more bragging about sleeping with underage Eastern European prostitutes on the cheap and you might have something. I’ll never aspire to that level. However, I will aspire to tearing into a Victory Bag of Cheetos, in remembrance of good times. > [@lissener](#): > > The crude human face shown in a rictus of agony is clear evidence that this race of visitors regrets their involvement Biden’s theft of the 2020 election and 9/11. I dunno, I think it’s a representation of the shock-and-awe of one’s consciousness being uploaded to a collective server. The lower left representation demonstrates the partially complete process, while the top left illustrates a completed “Elevation” (hence the ‘E’). Tripler At least I have the concept of [a hypothesis](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/proposing-hypotheses-in-the-scientific-method-better-approaches/832610) straight in my head. Okay, okay, I’ll stop naming names. ---

If so that will be the sole service to Humanity that any member of the Trump clan has ever delivered on. OTOH, with our recent luck, these would really have been the benevolent Good Aliens of SF fame who could have happily and willingly bumped our tech by millenia, erased human suffering, and all the rest. And the Trumply Nuggets sent them away. Drove them off more like. Sheesh! We can’t buy a break!
