My reply will be the shortest possible: teleportation.
Dude! I just now read your nym in another post and thought: Has this Stackie ever commented on one of mine? He seems familiar, and BAMBOWSKI!
There you are, my little sunshine!
I'm not kidding, this has to be one of those universal brain farts of coincidence!
Anyways. Teleportation is a tricky one, can you tell us something more about it?
reply
It exist some studies (just in theoretical phase) based on which the teleportation will be available only if the "body can be separated by the mind"...
iDK if / when this will be available, but I think it will be a bad thing..
Anyway...a lot of peoples are working to develop bad things, and they earn a lot of money for this unfortunately :(

I only ever thought that the main challenge was to "disassemble" and "reassemble" one's body down to the molecule, which is quite a feat to achieve on it's own, but the "mind"... Good one.
You essentially "force" the mind to shut down while being teleported, only to restart it again, which could have some serious side-effects, ain't it?
reply
Hm...interesting approach
But I think different (sorry if our opinion does not match)... I think it is not required to mind to shut down, because the mind does not conscientize the "travelling" because of the short time (fractions of seconds).
In my opinion not the mind is the most important factor here, but also the time. If we surpass the lightning speed, time stops (this is also just a theory), and our mind have "no time" to react to this change (the travel with teleportation) => our mind does not shut down :)
This was just my opinion, not supported by any scientific evidence
