You can regularly sync your memories with your copies (either one way or both ways)
In double digits at the very least. I need to work more and we’d peer pressure each other into working.
I’d like helping hands in a few of my hobbies and we’d build bigger things made to scale if there were a lot of us.
Sounds good, though let’s hope you have some copies for resting, in case they all burnout at the same time
There’s at least one clone war in this thread.
2 copies. One for work. One for Personal life. One for spare parts.
But if they have individualism then I will assume a fight will eventually break out.
Just the original is fine.
It would have to be a lot to change the local society, since one of me struggles in this job market and more of me will increase costs without increasing income (unless they all get a welfare cheque). More of my projects would finish (money notwithstanding), and I guess we could do heists. I’m not too fussed about who is the alpha, I think I could die tomorrow and have lived a kinda sad life and be OK with it.
Going dark with it: How much are organs worth on the black market?
Keeping it light: like 4 or 5 maybe, as long as there is no degradation in capabilities I think I could feasibly let 1 do my job, then the rest and myself could pursue other intellectual endeavors. I would also always have a full D&D group and be able to play the multiplayer games I have always wanted to that never had the interest of my friends.
DnD issue: memory sync.
You’re just yourself playing yourself, and all copies know what all copies are thinking.
That’s not a malfunction, it’s a feature.
I always play wildly different characters in my campaigns and like to mix things up. The other players knowing what I am thinking just means that I don’t have to communicate my hair brained schemes.
If you would be willing to sell the organs of your clones, it stands to reason that your clones would be willing to sell yours. I think you would likely be harvested first and then they would devolve into a game of organ harvesting Highlander as they all turned on each other.
Several regiments, plus casualty replacement
Me after splitting myself into any number of copies:
Everyone keeps tell me to go fuck myself. Inonly need the one copy to live out that wish.
You really need to work on your creativity - three, maybe four, copies would be much more fun.
Two would be ideal.
Three would have greater benefits, greater complexity and problems.
Assume you could sync your memories after each day. What would you do with them?
One would go to work, the other would be a house-husband.
I love my work, just don’t have enough time to stay home, keep the place clean and tidy, read my books, visit places and chill!
As many as my finances can comfortably support
Assume a clone is free. You could take turns with a clone sleeping in your bed, or the couch, or the floor, or at your partner’s, or crashing with a friend.
The clone doesn’t have to eat?
yes it does, it’s essentially you
Food expenses 💸
Ah. Right, good point. Still, a bag of rice a day?
You would give yourself a bag of rice a day? I mean, I hate myself and I’d still feed it well 😳
In that case then I’d start with one. Have them go to my job. And see how well they do at the job. Then get another one and have them do another job at a different site. Once I’m pulling in $200,000/year. I’d start traveling and see the world.
Since they are free. Then they don’t need food or water. Just need the heat for the house. Also need the electricity. As for clothing. Other then work clothes they can wear tshirts and jeans.
When I said “free” I meant you don’t pay to have one, but you still need to feed and house them, as you would yourself.
Having two for work and one (yourself) for travel seems like a good balance though.
All I’d need is one. She’d do doppelgänger work and keep me company sentimentally as well as fulfill, ahem, physical needs.
Yeah, I’d fuck myself too ;)

Interesting idea but I would utterly hate a person like me.
The old saying about “you hate in others what reminds you of yourself” feels like it was written for me!
I really need someone to contrast my personality. I’d kick clone out within minutes.
Nah, that’s what you think. You’d be hate fucking yourself before the end of the day
Your clone is only a copy of you at first, the more it experiences, the more different it becomes. That’s going to cause issues eventually.
The solution is The Prestige.
The clone only exists long enough to complete a task or fulfill a purpose, but then one of us (and we don’t know which) is gonna get dropped through a trap door and drowned when we’re done.
You just described a meseeks box
Yeah but the person pressing the button isn’t cloning themselves, and the meeseeks just wanna help and then die. Your clone is you, and may start getting…ideas if they hang around too long.
I was going to make a joke about how meeseeks want to die so it isn’t that bad, but some people may be into that.
I disagree. The comment says you can Sync up memories. That means those memories and experiences would happen to both people once Synced.
If there was no Syncing then I fully agree.
Everyone has horrific qualities about them, but everyone has redeeming qualities too. I’m sure you and your clone would fight, but I can imagine you would get a lot done too
One me gets basically nothing done. I feel like a second me is just gonna be used to play all the coop games my friends don’t play and we’re gonna achieve even less somehow.
Yeah, two me’s would just amplify my indecisiveness to an unbearable level, I think we’d just explode together
Tangentially related, but I often think about if everyone on Earth were just like me, what kind of place would it be?

My life’s so pitiful
But the future’s so bright?Well I’d look ahead
But it burns my retinas’- Pitchshifter
None as well. The copies will have same needs, same level of lazyness. This won’t benefit anyone, quite the contrary. Just more bad people.
But you could work as a team with common goals, and alleviate the strain of doing it all alone.
Blowjob centipede
take over the world
Nah, that sounds like work
I’m having an orgy with myself for sure.
Just the one, we’d both sit around doing nothing. Get him to give me a hand job, it’s not gay if it’s you right?
