Well, if pop culture teaches us anything, I think that we need to be careful. Personally I wouldn't be able to stand implants, I hate surgery as it is. I think as long as we don't destroy what makes us inherently human, these changes aren't terrible. Now, at the same time we can already see how Emai...

pst: no need to double post.
We're super slow at responding, but we will eventually.

Sorry, I have nothing else to add, I couldn't recognize a song if my life depended on it :oops:

Thanks!

It's amazing what kind of horror stories people will believe. I wonder sometimes if Americans WANT the world to end.

I agree that Ads are around us too much.

Do you try and stay away from Google because of how it collects info for it's advertisements? or do you just adblock them away?

Re: Information warfare

The first task in engineering when you want to control a system is to figure out how to measure it. In Section 9, Motoko frequently has the group perform information management tasks to sway or control public information and opinion on a subject or event. The second page is far more relevant to the...

I'm not sure which I like better: Rise, the intro from 2nd Gig, or Origa from the first one. Probably Rise. Is it lame that my favorite ones are the intro songs? At least they're worthy of playing each time you start an intro. There's few tv shows that have an intro good enough to make it worthwhile...

This is further questioned at the end of season 1 in the scene when the Major is boarding the airplane, is sniped , and has her head blown off. Apparently what saved her was her being fully backed up on an external hard drive somewhere. (right?,sorry if my details dont exactly line up) Well, I'm no...

The other thing you have to wonder is how "personality" develops with people with cyberbrains. I mean, emotions stem from the brain, so when the is removed, then what creates the personality of GiTS people? I suppose the creators vaguely answered that by saying people still have "gho...

goodbye college in that case...not that I studied too much during that time anyway :o I can't say I learned much in college either. However, I did learn how to learn, which is many ways is much more valuable. That being said, I'm very skeptical about the hard drive scenario. Lets assume that a hard...

I used to be an active member of "http://forums.longestjourney.com/" I think that forum has the closest similarity to the community here (except being a bit bigger). Other then that most of my forums are support/computer stuff (linuxquestions.org, ubuntuforums.org). I don't usually find ti...

It's interesting, because by all reasoning this forum should be purged. There's one forum in the back of my mind that a bunch of my friends from an online game joined. Once I quit, though, the whole thing kind of fell apart. But this is the internet. Even though there's only about one post a year, ...

Whisper, I find your points about the contradicting history of Section 9 (in terms of display, not factual). One time it seems infantile, the next it seems downright archaic. I'm trying to figure out what you mean by this. Are you saying that Whisper is correct in saying it seems there are conflict...
