Ask HN: You Die

[sturza]

You die and the first thing you see in the afterlife are three buttons: "Next level", "Spectate" and "Restart". Which one do you press and why?

[genjipress]

I pry open the control panel and see what's inside. Turns out all three buttons are wired to the same circuit.

[Avtomatk]

Next level, spectate could turn you into a ghost (boring), restart, you will live your life again (if you don't like risks, choose this), but next level is something new.

[Bender]

Spectate would get boring really fast. Restart would be nice if I could retain 100% of my memories. What does next level mean? Is it harder? Are the NPC's smarter?

[fsflover → Bender]

I guess the whole point of the question is that there is no documentation.

[jimmyvalmer]

Restart, for the same reason why the correct reply to the genie in the lamp is "Infinite wishes."

[Bakary]

Where's the "End Simulation" or "Shutdown" button?

[fsflover → Bakary]

For that you probably need to get to a higher level https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana.
