Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But from your persepective, would you notice a difference?
Wouldn't you? I mean, the rest of the world mightn't (okay, everyone corresponding to you off the internet might), but you die, and another you keeps going. How can you get this unique spark of sentience in that vessel?
(in 1000 years, that question may look really stupid. But anyone from 1000 years in the future reading this needs a life anyway)

Well, if you mean eating in the literal sense.
Nothing I've ever swallowed has been capable of a conversation. The talky bits of meat stayed alive and undigested.

What is even happening?
(in 1000 years, that question may look really stupid. But anyone from 1000 years in the future reading this needs a life anyway)You say that now, but where else could they dig for proof of Buffy's resurrection? The Bronze was destroyed. There are only extant fragments.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
But from your persepective, would you notice a difference?
Well, the from the clone's prespective, no (except for it "living" in a computer of some sort).
But from your perspective, you'd still die. It's a weird paradox.
Say you go to get your brain cloned. You walk into a box where the cloning happens. You walk back out, still yourself. Nothing's changed. You're still gonna die.
But you also walk out as a computer-hosted brain-thingie. You get to live forever. Hooray.
Essentially there's now two of you, with the same memories and everything. One of you has to die.

One of the great rules of Science Fiction television

Yeah, except in SciFi television one of you would have a goatee.

Cloning my consciousness is so off if either of us needs to have a goatee.
