should it not upset me that society is filled with incredibly stupid people? i have natural instincts to yearn for the human species to advance evolutionarily as far as possible and ignorant fucktards like yourself are no more than a detriment

Like bigbeau said, random doesn't exist. Your thought is driven by experience and environment. Both people will do the same "random" things at the exact same time.

the only reason he might not feel the same way is because you are in different positions in an asymmetrical room. which is not the case in the OP

well give me a single sample of randomness. there is none. rolling a dice isnt random. flipping a coin isnt random. why do you think an algorithm cant be created to create a random number/variable for example in online poker. those cards arent random. they are just sent through an extremely complex algorithm to appear to be random. if you knew that algorithm, you could cheat. everything can be explained by math, meaning there exists an algorithm to explain every action, whether you can figure it out or not.
there are 52 cards in a deck. if the top card is an ace, what is the probability that the top card is an ace? 100% obviously. now if you dont know that the top card is an ace, what is the probability that the top cardis an ace (same deck)? still 100% theres nothing random about the top card being an ace.

ahhaha wait, you are the one who stopped arguing by not saying anything new and just saying the same thing over and over. here, i'll simulate our conversation for you: you: exact same is exact same me: i disagree because of this.. you: you are wrong me: what? how am i wrong? you can't just say that without anything to back it up you: you are wrong. exact same is exact same me: no but i disagree because of this... you: exact same is exact same me: why do you keep saying that? you: exact same is exact same me: but what if it's not? you: exact same is exact same

please elaborate me how quantum mechanics isnt random..
In my opinion, for the sake of this debate - if the room is identical and symetrical (definition?) for both clones but the electromagnetic interactions between atoms are driven by the laws of quantum mechanics identical to those in our universe there would be some randomness in the mental processes or physical execution.
and you can also elaborate me why you consider only materialistic theory of mind, do you have any proof this is the right one? (dualistic being the other)

Quantum mechanics is the body of scientific principles which attempts to explain the behavior of matter and its interactions with energy on the scale of atoms and atomic particles.
it attempts to explain the behavior of matter at an atomic level how is that random? it attempts to solve what seems random such as electrons.
and it only applies on the atomic level. so theoretically (since this whole argument is theoretical lol) you could say that the effect created by quantum mechanics would influence the fight.
|
As I'm about to start fighting, my brain would explode from trying to understand why I'm standing in a room with my perfect clone in front of me, and the only idea in mind is to fight with him...
I would wonder so much and try to convince myself not to fight, that the unsurmountable unknown force that wants me to fight him would simply make my and my clone's brains explode out of boredom, so they can try their sick plans on another unsuspecting TL member.

We are presuming that their experiences and memories are identical as well as the physical build up. Looks like body and mind are identical, no matter which theory we follow.
I never meant to say Quantum physics was or isn't randomness, just that those fields of study were the ones relating to randomness and that he should go look it up and read on it a bit.
I don't know enough about the field to make any assumptions about it, but I still don't believe random is possible. I read up the wiki page and the only random thing on there is that we can't find a time-pattern on a few wave-functions. Sounds like this field needs more research before it means anything.

oh i'm sorry, did i ask for further reading on the subject? pretty sure i asked for proof...
and mythito are you aware that randomness doesnt exist? that sure sounds like making assumptions about it. (i know it wasn't you but you backed it up)

mythito are you aware that 1+1 = 2? thats not an assumption...just because i phrase it that way doesnt mean its an assumption.

then you dont know enough about dualistic theory of mind its about mind being a qualitatively different substance than body and somehow (mind-body problem) interacts with matter. In this theory mind is independent from materialistic processes (states of brain etc.) and therefore the clones wouldnt necessary mirror each other.
if you dont think randomness exists: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_random_number_generator

I read the first and last page of this thread and my head exploded.

Assuming that the room is in perfect symmetry, you and your clone are standing in a symmetrical location and stance relative to one another and your clone somehow has the same exact thought pattern as you do, there is still one factor that will make it a dynamic fight rather then a mirror image. You state that this clone was spawned the second you walked into the room, although has the same experiences and such as you do.
However, you have just experienced a feeling, maybe something that made you happy or sad and the chemical reaction in your body to create that emotional sensation is still somewhat active, whereas to the clone it is a mere memory. He was just spawned. If I come across something, I do not feel the same about it directly after it happens as opposed to when looking back at it as a memory. So you have yourself, which has an emotional advantage or disadvantage, opposed to your clone in an essentially neutral state. This will dictate each other's decision making. Idk about you, but I seem to be much more dangerous when I am angry then when I am feeling okay. So my conclusion is the element of emotion overrules logic pattern enough to alter it.
Trying to further this by saying the clone spawned prior to entering the room is pretty pointless and you might as well be asking how would it play out if you were trying to punch yourself in the face.
