That's all well and good, until your electrons are in a place that has a blackout.

That's what meshed redundancy is for.

My consciousness would exist on hundreds of thousands of computers worldwide at any given moment, and if 1% of them lost power, it wouldn't matter much. Individual neurons in the brain die every minute, but we don't go braindead, the power load just shifts.

If your answer is no, what if it gave you the strength of five men?

Well, probably not. If you could tell me that I could retain all of my sensory input, then yes. I want to be able to taste, hear, see, smell, etc. If I am a robot and cannot enjoy life in the smallest way, what would be the point?

You would have a controllable X-Ray vision... you wouldn't want to see a bunch of bones and nuts

Robots, obviously. If you move to the a country, and it's attacked by your former country, you'd fight with your new country, right?

At least, that's what immigrants that sign up for the US armed forces do...

Yea, but he would have a robot body, so he should side with the robots. The humans are the ones that selected not to place their brains in the robot body.

Okay, you read that wrong. I mean, "That's why you're going to war AGAINST the humans."

When I said "with", I meant it in the usage such as, "We're going to war WITH Iraq."
