If you press the button, your consciousness will leave your body and feel nothing but pure bliss for the rest of your body's lifetime.
Your body will continue living on autopilot. It will behave exactly as you would have, but with no consciousness to experience it.

Nobody will know you're gone. Nobody will grieve you.

After pressing the button, you are protected from any feelings of guilt or regret from the decision as those would fall under feeling something other than bliss.

You can never get sick of the bliss, as that would count as not bliss anymore.

Would you press the button? Why or why not?

Essentially you have super speed but you also age rapidly and have a quicker metabolism meaning you need to at least 10K calories a day to live healthily.

As a bonus, your body will also heal faster so injuries and diseases take half the time it would normally take to recover from

If there was a button that when you press it starts a big bang and at that moment you learn everything about the universe, about the essence and meaning of everything but at the same moment destroys the entire universe, would you press it?

You will be teleported to whatever location you want in England in the year 1450. You will be given the currency of the time in the equivalent value of $100 million dollars today (let’s say you have a magic purse that holds all of the money in coins with the bad only weighing about 5 pounds).

You are given a week to do any preparation to understand the time period and language. Would you accept?

Imagine waking up in a blank room, with a single screen. All there is is a button on a table. Suddenly, the screen turns on and a man tells you that if if you decide to press the button, you'll get $1,000 in a virtual bank. If you don't press the button, nothing happens.

The funny part is, whatever choice you make, you'll then completely forget about all of it.

You'll be put in this same situation 10 days in a row.

Everyday you press the button, you'll triple the amount of money in the virtual bank, except the first time you press it where you'll get $1,000.

Every time you're completely unaware of the amount of money in the bank, and you don't even know if this is the first or last time you've been put in this scenario.

The man on the screen also adds that if you choose to press the button at least 9 times out of 10 you'll instantly die.

Also, if you press the button on the last day of the experiment, you won't triple the money, but multiply it by 10 instead (remember that you never know when it's the last day).

If you're still alive after the 10 days, you'll win whatever amount of money is on the virtual bank.

What would you do when you wake up in this room ?

Would you press the button, or not ?
