Default Re: Live Long Enough to Live Forever (x-post)

Er I don't need death to mean anything. I'll live for 100,000 years and you will never find me wishing for death(assuming everything remains cool and I'm not some kind of depressed ancient glob of human).

I'd have plenty of time to imbue meaning into my life outside of the ending of it.

I haven't read those books, Kurzweil wrote a cool essay for this book on the philosophy of the Matrix. I think the book was called "Taking the Red Pill". If I remember right he explains how we will become robots or the robots will compete for resources with us and they will win and displace us.
