        It barely works, though. Compared to modern machines and most animals, our bodies are craptastic.

        We’re better than any other animal at walking long distances, but other than that, we have some of the least functional and most fragile bodies.

      Yeah but we can tell marketing it’s state of the art code created via genetic algorithm metaheuristics

    What are ya talking about, brosef? That’s a great design! We’re engines of warfare, and in warfare machines, ya gotta have redundancy! More redundancy! And spread the vitals around, make sure a stray pinecone launched from a big 80 foot enemy war machine above ya doesn’t take ya out! The trees are coming!

      Dude, there’s pretty much only ONE part of the human body that can take a bullet without a high risk of death or permanent injury.

      Hint: it’s the thing most politicians talk out of.

    pull them out

    My brother I have been trying but my shrink keeps telling me nonsense things like “You are not a machine” and “There is no government tracking chip in your arm, stop trying to dig it out with a broken pencil”. One day the crude biomass that they call a temple will soon decay and wither and they will beg my kind to save them. But I am already saved for the machine is immortal.

    Reminds me of Dawkins case against intelligent design. The laryngeal nerve if the giraffe is wrapped around the aorta, therefore as the animal evolved to have a longer neck, the nerve got longer.

    So for the current day giraffe it guys from the brain, down to the heart and back up to the larynx, for a fifteen feet detour.

      Priority order of cable management:

      1. functional
      2. organized
      3. pretty

      Doesn’t matter how good it looks if it doesn’t work.
