    I do believe if we become self reliant on machines we are done for. I know we all saw Terminator we are actually heading into that direction. We have all these smart machines and smart weapons. It will be game over for human race.

    But if shit ever hits the fan and we can't use cars or go to the store to get food one thing I am glad about I know how to hunt, I can read a map and I know how to survive in the woods, all I will need is the bud

    Human beings do not need to meld with machines to survive the impending cataclysm. We didn't need to be melded with machines for the ice age, and we won't need to be for the next one. I am a firm believer that machines, and our reliance on them, are causing us to lose our sense of humanity, instead locking us into a never ending spiral of inhumanity.

    For example, if we rely on machines when the cataclysm hits, to such a degree, what happens when they run out of fuel? What happens when they break? We no longer know how to hunt on a large scale, our societies are not based around the Earth, they are based around the thing sitting in front of us.

    I'm just as susceptible to the cataclysm as anyone. If I have melded with a machine I think I will be even more susceptible. Until we have completely self-aware and self-reparable machines that will be the case, and then we have a lot more problems.

    Quantum physics and string theory are glorious things to finally giving something that could resemble a concrete answer to a lot of the universal questions we've been plagued by. But, at the same time, I think there are answers we will never understand, no matter how deep we look.

    Besides, I wanna see the bottom of the Ocean first, and see what creatures lurk down there.
