  2. Re:Well I guess I'm an inclusionist then... on The Battle For Wikipedia's Soul · · Score: 3, Informative

    There have actually been a fair number of sites that have appeared because of wikipedia/wikibooks excluding information. There have been tons of wikia sites created to hold all sorts of info that was deleted from wikipedia. And after wikibooks decided to delete half their content and ban most books about gaming, most of it was moved to other sites, like StrategyWiki or egamia. For other non-gaming related stuff, there's also (not sure if they could handle a /., but) WikiKnowledge, though they haven't gotten very big.

  6. Re:cyber immortality? on Researchers Simulate Building Block of Rat's Brain · · Score: 1

    This gets into some metaphysical stuff. What you could be implying is that there is no atomic consciousness that can simply be moved. Or it could mean that the consciousness is intrinsically linked to the specific body. We really aren't at the point where we can answer any of this. You could also replace consciousness with soul for added fun.
