That is PRECISELY why I'm so passionate about putting uploaders on a

That's why I need a space ship fast enough to get the hell out of your

You are only a few mental-inhibitions away from understanding why I want
the AI to be a selfish bastard.

But how does that math work out? 1/6 billionth of me is only a few
milligrams... Who the hell would want to be the size of a grain of sand
when they could be the size of a planet? I would not value such an
existence more than a grain of sand anyway. =\
