Sorry. TL/DR. Will come back to it later but you've gotten off on the wrong foot and then try to use that to justify your entire dance.
Key difference is that implanted kung fu moves are invoked by the user/brain owner, a very different scenario from having an external intelligence take over one's brain. So static vs dynamic is not the best dichotomy to hang that on. Acknowledged. Doesn't erase the fundamental difference between the two types of…
Seems if they'd had a brain editing option they'd have used it. Instead of trying make an ideal world for the people, as the Architect referred to Matrix v.1, make people that'd be happy with whatever they got.
Even a book that reads itself to you is static compared to embedding another intelligence within your brain. Kung Fu, with moves as enacted by the user, is relatively static compared to an active intelligence because it requires the user's choice for a move to happen.
The various martial arts and other skill trainings would be more like packages of data, accessible but not active. Smith in Bane however was very active.
Of course this is a speculative exercise, but I don't think the movies ever showed someone in or out of the Matrix after being taken over by agents, except as a corpse, and Bane is the only one shown to be "possessed" in Zion.
Inside the Matrix, agents don't take over the physical person, they usurp control of the inMatrix avatar, though effects can be backward propagated through the connection between physical person and inMatrix avatar. That's what made Mr Smith's infection of Bane so odd.
Dot matrix display. He was awoken by the sound of the green phosphors impacting the inside of the tube.
I'll have to go home to watch the video, but of the many oddities in the Matrix...
Speaking of a Thunder God's simple nature, a bigger plot problem in the Thor movie is why would Thor believe for even an instant that Odin is dead, as Loki tells him at one point. Reflexive thought paths should go Odin dead? Is Ragnarok happening? No? Then Odin can't be dead. End of the silliest lie ever told by…
What did you expect a sex museum to look like? This expectation should have been set within a second of reading the article title.
If you want to appreciate it as a guy, then you're probably going to need to repeat the experiment, only this time spend your day nude in a Barcalounger while watching TV. Obviously to spend the entire day just watching TV while clothed is essentially a false activity and would not be done by a guy who did not fear…
All they need to do is partner with Palm and move to the Island of Technologies that Should Have Won. They would rule the personal data assistant sector. However Novell is still king of the island.
I hear Purell makes a special strength cleaning goo for that.
What!? There's no slash to your fanfic.
It's ancient Bolo seeds!
Me too, but what can we do? Strain away and spend all day. Damn the kinja's gone astray. Talk and and play, hidden away. We'll have to try another day.
Oddly enough I generally consider myself to be an optimist, however when it comes to the ability of governments to overrun their boundaries, I am so optimistic of their ability to leave all considerations of decency and humanity so far behind, that the resultant outcome is very pessimistic.
