Important to whether it is murder, but not to whether something was killed, unless I am missing something.
I suppose "bullet" may have been a poor choice, as there may be too many cached associations with murder, but bullets can certainly take life in situations we view as morally justified - in this case, defense of others.
Agreed that bullets can take life in morally justifiable ways.
I'm not sure what you're responding to, but I'm pretty sure it's something I didn't say.
Your original comment implied an analogy between disassembling the team implementing TheChineseDave on the one hand, and a bullet in your brain. I replied that the implicit analogy fails, because disassembling the team implementing TheChineseDave frees up a bunch of people to live their lives, whereas a bullet in your brain does not do so.
What you seem to be saying is that yes, that's true, but the analogy do...
Suppose I have choice between the following:
A) One simulation of me is run for me 100 years, before being deleted.
B) Two identical simulations of me are run for 100 years, before being deleted.
Is the second choice preferable to the first? Should I be willing to pay more to have multiple copies of me simulated, even if those copies will have the exact same experiences?
Forgive me if this question has been answered before. I have Googled to no avail.
