>death gives life meaning

Yeah, I bet you'd all feel real "meaningful" when you're asphyxiating on your deathbed in aomw sterile hospital whilst I, the immortal transhumanist Chad, will be having a foursome (3F1M(me)) whilst simulatenously discovering new mathematical phenomena using my enhanced visuospatial abilities.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 24 09:43:04 2018 No.11834571 >>11834568 You just said it doesn't matter what you do, yet you die and are willing to accept that fact. Doesn't really seem like meaning to me.

We live out lives differently, but assign different meanings to different things. But the constant in the equation is death, which makes everything limited and meaningful. You can kill yourself and see if life has meaning for you or it doesn't

Death is a liberator and equalizer for the time being, but it's not a giver. The same mind that assigns meaning to experience is the same mind that uses death to scale experiences by occurance across time. Whether the two seem one and the same is subjective, not universal.

That's precisely
>making the mistake of thinking our daily chase is the ultimate extent of living
In a way, an existence of a true immortal will be a really pitiful one. On the bright side, true (as opposed to instrumental) immortality is self-contradictive and thus impossible.
