I have enough problems managing myself. I don't see any advantages to doubling the workload.

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.

All I'd need is one. She'd do doppelgΓ€nger work and keep me company sentimentally as well as fulfill, ahem, physical needs.

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.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

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.

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?

So you already get enough sleep, have all your hobby projects finished, and are fulfilled in your romantic life?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Its not like that if i suddenly made a clone i'll be getting disected in the government lab.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

One clone could go to work doing a gruelling backbreaking soul crushing job, and the other could sleep, for example.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wouldn't do that due to my morals and ethics.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're against taking turns abusing what is essentially yourself?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yes i wouldn't abuse me or anyone for that matter.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (5 children)

You've never.... pushed yourself?

Yeah, but neither Clone would want to go to the job. Both would want to sleep.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Compromise - you could take turns alternatively having days working and sleeping with your clone.

I'm not so sure about that mate. When was the last time you had two years off of working? If you got that opportunity, you might be surprised how much energy you have for doing stuff when you're not forced to kill yourself working for someone else every day just to scrape by.
