How does the Multiverse know, I am just sleeping for 24 (or 24000) hours? How the Multiverse knows, I'll not be rescued after the real suicide attempt after a quantum coin head popped up?
Or resurrected by some ultratech?
Where is the fine red line, that the Quantum Immortality is possible, but a Quantum Awakening described above - isn't?
It doesn't, not right now in the present moment. But there's no reason why "subjective threads" and "subjective probabilities" should depend on physical laws only locally. Imagine you're an algorithm running on a computer. If someone pauses the computer for a thousand years, afterwards you go on running like nothing happened, even though at the moment of pausing nobody "knew" when/if you'd be restarted again.
But what if a new computer arises every time and an instance of this algorithm start there?
As it allegedly does in MW?
