You think you can take me at Satan's Hollow? Go 'head on!

If you download your brain into a computer, you are still going to die as your brain will die, it's just that you've made a copy of your brain. You cease to be, and there is just a copy in your place. Sorry folks, no matter what you do, you just aren't going to be able to escape death. Most peoples' brains probably aren't worth preserving, anyway.

You're like that guy that tells everybody that already knows wrestling is fake that wrestling is fake.

I guess my point is that yeah, Copy Me is going to be aware that he's a copy but since he's me, he won't give a poo poo and will go out and bang some 3D anime waifus.

And if there's an eternal soul then the essence of Real Me is going to be reincarnated or in some afterlife or haunting the burnt-out post-apocalyptic shell of Earth and won't care what Copy Me is doing in the singularity.
