Followup to the question I asked in my previous post (http://alexandra-thorn.dreamwidth.org/48698.html):
In the same hypothetical post-mortality simulated universe scenario, what sort of world do you imagine you'd end up creating for yourself?
Something like your current existence only a bit better (maybe by removing physical ailments, unpleasant surprises, or similar)? Something different but still engaging with a simulation of a physical world (superpowers, maybe)? A disembodied existence where you deal only with abstractions, or directly interface with other minds? Something else entirely?

It's been 40 some odd years now, and I still haven't entirely reconciled to being instantiated in matter, despite its occasional charms.
