11:38:23 need it? 11:38:35 software isn't self aware but can be made to self-modify. 11:38:42 no need. do humans need to ? 11:39:57 if universe is, it might be a survival trait 11:40:16 Speuler I doubt humans need to. 11:40:25 but they still are 11:40:40 so why should there be a need for universe ? 11:40:45 Based on the little I know about the Kalahari Bushman, I believe a lot of what we do is completely and utterly redundant. 11:40:49 an elaborate game. 11:41:41 if it matters to the Bushman, then it really matters :D 11:41:54 maybe humans wouldn't exist nowadays w/o self awareness 11:42:07 why not? 11:42:50 we can exist regardless. 11:43:04 cause it's remaining survival mechanisms would not have been sufficient 11:43:32 fear of death 11:43:44 no need to fear death. 11:44:01 may be a side effect 11:44:22 the lack of fear of death is a side effect? 11:44:40 fear of death may be side effect of self awareness 11:45:02 fear of death is rather the side of effect of realizing there is no heaven :) 11:45:09 it all ends here. 11:45:59 maybe, no need. but, no need to live, either 11:46:03 true. 11:46:24 I am going with what alan watts says: we are tubes which push things one end and let it out another end. 11:46:32 at least none we can discern 11:47:14 * Speuler is not a believer into higher goals 11:47:38 do you think we die and its over? 11:47:54 difficult. 11:48:15 the stats would suggest it's not over 11:48:24 whats so hard about it? seal a person in a thick glass box with no oxygen and watch what happens. 11:48:32 your matter will be reused 11:48:40 or make that a stray wildebeest. 11:49:09 without experience passing of time, it doesn't matter how long something takes 11:49:19 how will the matter be reused? 11:49:46 that is, how long it takes until you find yourself in a configuration which could be called "alive" again 11:50:17 the only way is to fuse with another person who has eggs. 11:50:45 get absorbed, added to another structure 11:50:51 the 'thing' is a highly compressed form of you and the egg is a link to the tar xfsz command :) 11:51:56 the notion of some life after death, very primitive and dating way back past the early pharaohs makes us put people into wooden boxes and then into concrete boxes. 11:52:20 onl prolongs the process of being reused 11:52:29 unnecessarily. 11:52:31 ...until being reused 11:52:41 but there is no death then. 11:53:09 there's "cease of life" 11:53:45 the process of ending function of the current configuration 11:53:49 a person is dead if when given shared resources like food and water, one of the persons does not eat any of it for longer than 3 months :) 11:54:15 a person is dead if he/she is no longer pushing things through one end of the tube and letting it out the other. 11:54:53 intravenous feeding ?
