A Request for ENTp's: Teleportation Device Wanted

[Creepy-]

I would like to be able to teleport myself and/or objects wherever and whenever the desire or need arises. As you know, this is not currently possible. I realize that you ENTp characters [as well as INTj's, whom I certainly don't want to neglect] are excellent at creating new and wondrous things. Consider this, then, a formal request for you to make teleportation possible, by whatever means you deem necessary.

... pretty please.

[cracka]

This may work.

I think teleportation, as cool as it sounds, would really be kinda lame. I just want really fast flying carpets and I'd be good.

Flying carpets are cool, too.

Do both, then!

[JRiddy]

I'd love to get started, but Augusta says that if I do I will just go onto something else. So why bother?

[Creepy-]

I'll find you a hot little ISFp to cheer you on. How's that?

Nah, that's the kinda ISFp that I don't want.

[diljs]

Nah, that's the kinda ISFp that I don't want.

I'll take the hot cheerful ones, you can have the unattractive boring ones.

deal?

j/k like any ISFp would be unattractive or boring lolz.

[Creepy-]

Nah, that's the kinda ISFp that I don't want.

What kind of ISFp do you want?

[JRiddy]

What kind of ISFp do you want?

The kind that has her own drives and desires and goals and ambitions. The kind that wants more than to just cheer me on.

Negative mass is a prerequisite for teleportation. Someone invent something that weighs a negative amount. If we don't get around to building the teleporter or destroying the universe, you can always sell it as a weight-loss remedy...

Otherwise, let me remind you that another ENTp already made this impossible, and it's difficult to override that sort of decision.

The real problem with teleportation is that you only transfer energy (at the speed of light). Then the energy must be transformed into new particles at the other side. I'm sure the ILEs will find a way to put the particles together in the shape of a body again, but then you'll need an INFP (big MBTI-P, yes) as they are the only ones who can call upon your spirit and your soul lost in between teleports somewhere. Can't have a lot of bodiless souls/soulless bodies hanging around...


(Yeah... Still offended by the:
INFP (1%): "Questor". A sense of honour - somewhat lost in life.)

The speed of light is too slow. I favor the wormhole approach...

I propose hypnosis. A real teleporter would be expensive and clumsy. If you had some negative mass, it wouldn't be clumsy, but it would still be expensive. On the other hand, if you convinced yourself that you were being teleported, it might not save any real time, but it would be just as fun.

[dattebayo]

... pretty please.

now, that's something I thought I would never hear come from the mouth/hands of an ISTp

Yeah, yeah. Don't get used to it....

How's work on the teleportation device coming, btw?

Um, we did some research on it, and apparently another ENTp already tried to make a teleportation device, but it ended with disastrous results:

Different kinds of molecules probably send certain amount/kind of radiation. We have to build a device recoginsing those molecules. It would be a cube and by a combination of messages from all walls we can learn structure of an object we are going to send. This 3D image is being automatically sent to a computer, which is sending those information to another computer, being laid in place we want to teleport. Man standing in a primary device (the cube) is being destroyed (Muahahaha!), and thanks to information about his structure we are able then to construct ideally the same object in destination place from surrounding mattery.

But there comes a question: is than "new" man the same one as previous one?

Dun dun DUHHHNNN!

Eee... Łot?

It is a philosophical question. A lot of the atoms that compose your body are lost during the course of your life, while others remain. Do you consider yourself the same person over time?

If you are the same person awlays then the replacement of the atoms doesn't matter.
If you are a different person then it means that the change isn't linked to your particular atoms.

At the end, being or not being the same person is a matter of order, not matter.

At work + bored = too much aimless surfing of the internets.
