Life isn't a game of Civilization, progressing from one stage to the next. It's constant microchanges over a long, long series of time. Each "species" is just taking a look at the same line of animals at wildly different points in its development.

Wait I'm sounding stupid again, it's Mithridatism.
Confused it with.. vaccination, somehow.

Artificially acquired poison immunity.

This is the single most beautifully written patent I have ever read. I wish to one day achieve this level of greatness.

"Deep web" is a nonsense statement. The internet is equally accessible everywhere.

Encrypted password used to give yourself a 'unique' tag.

Forever chilly.

Then you still have a body. It's simply no longer your meat-and-bones.

If you're getting input, THAT IS YOUR BODY.

also evolution is not some ethereal "drive to create a perfect being"

It is possible/probable that they meant "above the CURRENT average".

The information of sensation is registered by your hand, the information is relayed by the nerves, and the information is transcribed and understood by the brain.

You are the sum of your parts. The brain is equally nothing without the body to give it information to translate.

Not being afraid of death is not identical to desiring death.

Considering that lobsters are total loners, who meet up only to either duel or mate, that the loser becomes a temporary servant to the victor is an oddly respectful trait for animals.
