    Kinda, but also there’s stuff that we need to learn new physics for, like FLT travel.

    We can create some math saying it’s technically possible, but we have no idea how to create the things we need to make it work.

    Then there’s hibernation. We see it in some animals, but we need to know new things about biology to make it work in people.

    There are many categories of “possible” and some of them mean we just need enough people working on it. And some of them mean we need to learn new fundamental science to be able to even start to understand what it takes.




  • Would I know everything I know now? Cause if not, then what’s the point? I might as well be a completely different person (because I would be).

    If I do know everything I know now, then would I retain that intelligence if I was another creature? Like could I come back as a chimpanzee with my full current intellect? What about an octopus?

    Could I come back as a 90 year old billionaire’s only heir, and be born with my complete current knowledge? Then I can just use the cash to help people?

    Since this is fantasy anyway, could I come back as a Viltrumite? What about a Kryptonian?

    Could I be Cthulhu?

    Could I just be me, but reborn with my current information?

    WHAT ARE THE RULES???
