Torn's back!

Baijznyherglert'allalax! Or anyone, really.

What determines which mind-state recording you use when you bring someone back? Is his old one corrupt? Your procedure doesn't seem robust. If this is experimental it's very unethical not to get consent first.

not stupid just earnest, i'm from the future!

A neural read/write setup. They seem to have a very flexible one here, but they don't use it particularly well.

Wait, you mean like... messing with someone's brain? Why's that even necessary?

No. It's just a read. Non-destructive.

Don't you want to have some continuity of personality in the case of an accident?
