POLL: Would you plug yourself into your computer.

[johnjbruin]

sure
as a matter of fact i think something like this would be lovely.

So if you could interface with a PC then does that mean that someone could "hack" into you?

im already weirded out enough by the idea of moving myself around the planet in a giant metal shell...im not too comfortable with the thought of plugging myself into anything that aint my chick.

Think they're effective now? Wait until you've got a computer in your head. When you're a vegetable, come back and say how good it'll be.

Oh, wait, you can't, SINCE YOU HAVE NO MIND ANYMORE! OH TEH NOES!

Exacatly. I really don't need a security hole that gives hackers access to my brain.

The computer will not be in you.... just the interface... so if someone would hack and crash the computer, you'd just unplug and go give it a kick.. or something...
As long as the computer itself remains a seperate entity... I'd consider it...

Yes. Existenz. Good movie, if you like the type where you don't know if what you're watching is reality or fantasy.

yeah, that was sort of annoying. but i like his films. and everyone in it is good.
there is also a sense of watching a movie of an adventure game. which is sometimes so accurate and hilarious. like the scene where the dude keeps saying the same thing over and over until "you" respond correctly.
