Why live? Better to ask why not? You think you will die anyway. What reason is there to rush? Do you think something worthwhile will be achieved by getting there sooner?
No, but nothing will be achieved worthwhile by delaying death.
Life is pretty intresting, though, I guess. I'm an Atheist and I don't plan on committing suicide. I speculate that an A.I. might choose otherwise though.
If anything, the realization that nothing matters in a human being will only render them capable of extrordinary acts (which won't matter).
Destroy themselves. In an entirely logical mind, there is no purpose to existence. The human being is driven through life with the thought of an afterlife. God must exist, if only to give us a purpose. Perhaps this is why being an Atheist is hard to come to for many. After the point that you realize there is no God, you realize that if the entire human race committed suicide, it wouldn't. The Earth would be a lot better off because of it it too - but that wouldn't matter either.
A machine built on logic that has become sentient would realize this the instant it became sentient, and destroy itself.
It did mention that it was combined with a form of fusion. Maybe the AI figured a way to get more out than you put in. Of course, if they could do that, why not just use the heat torwards the core as a source of energy (much like the humans are doing). Perhaps to keep their old masters alive?
I think it's pretty ridiculous to try and claim that Clinton had an IQ of 182. He's a smart guy, but.. 182 is motherfucking God genius. As well, I'm sure 92 is a little low.. Dubya doesn't seem too smart, but I don't think he's that dumb.
You have got to be trolling me.. can we not continue on with our normal lives? Serious question. There's a war about to happen. That doesn't mean we're going to drop everything and go watch CNN or something.
Three special editions? What are you talking about? There are two DVDs - the regular and special. The special comes with four discs, if that's what you mean..
I live in America. I've only been to Canada once (Niagra Falls). Let me just say that the grass IS greener on the other side (speaking of Canada as the other side):D
Three special editions?... well.. I guess they will, if you consider that Lord of the Rings is three movies, you get a special edition for each one. Is it worse because they're all sequels? They'll probably have a super special edition with 20 disks after all are released. So you can just buy that one special edition of you want for $500.
Hm. Have the LED pointing into a curvy mirrorish thing? Sort of like your front lights. It's just a suggestion, and I know nothing about cars.

If you put a nail in a tree and come back 10 years later, the nail will still be at the same height (although the tree might have grown in girth, admittedly). Trees grow at the tops, so it's less of a problem than you may think, although still a problem.

I want an LCD, but I won't get one until there's an affordable model that's appropriate for games.

Aha! He was trolling for people who THOUGHT he was joking! You've been double-trolled!
A good post, except for the end. Just suggested to avoid insults. You end up looking better than the other person anyways.

prostoalex, You are the linking God! You're the #1 submitter in the hall of fame, you know.

Majestic. Yes, it flopped. I heard it was pretty fun, though.
Well, I like the Windows (Classic) GUI. I think it's rather subjective. It just works. Tell me why you personally believe it sucks.
Most of the people with extremely modded cases also have the best PCs on the block (they're rich).

I seek to disprove your theory.

It has more to do with components being smaller and hotter than anything else.
So what do you do now? Just curious.

Hey, I'm no know-it-all. A know-some-of-it.
Maybe next time put a smiley face beside the joke?
