If you don't remember something, it never happened

This is the real problem: it's impossible.
Even when Lain is out in the world, people only recognize Lain from the Wired. The people will never know Lain, and Lain will have never existed eventually. Only Lain of the Wired would ever be recognized as Lain. People even show cognitive dissonance when Lain shows that she isn't like Lain of the Wired. The troubling aspect of this is that while Lain of the Wired -- Lain's persona, public face, what she lets out online which is completely foreign to her actual personality -- will be remembered, Lain will not. There is no way for her to be remembered, and this causes her significant emotional distress (e.g. the "killing myself" scene). This extreme disconnect between the online persona and the real personality makes itself clear as Lain's mind crumbles ("Am I me?" "Lain is Lain") and she attempts to integrate Lain of the Wired into her own personality. This leads to Lain no longer holding a place in this world, losing her physical form. The Lain who is the result of the combination of Lain's personality with Lain of the Wired is neither Lain nor Lain of the Wired, and thus has no place either in the real world or in the Wired.

tl;dr: You will NEVER be remembered, and even if your name is remembered people will not understand who you actually were.

Being remembered is for Charlemagne and Constantine. Seeking to be remembered is just hubris and pride.

What the fuck does this even mean
The universe doesn't know shit it can't even think.

Zamas plz stop doing black powder, we had a very special episode about it and everything.

what's your damage, schizo?

hm?

annie are you ok?

I think user is talking about determinism. Say, if you called a kid a faggot in school and he decided to work out and become UFC champion. You aren't remembered, but among sports fans the effects of your actions will be remembered and may contribute to the evolution of the sport itself. Or, say that you steal Lain from younger Elon Musk's house before he watched it, and he never starts working on the neural link. Even if you aren't remembered, your actions have a cascading effect.

I was about to ask, I don't come on Yea Forums very often, is linking to other threads an Yea Forums thing or is it just one schizoposter?

That sounds pretty fucking dumb and like it's trying too hard to be optimistic.

I haven't seen this style of posting before either, I guess it's just one weirdo.

You don't even feel a thing.

I'll never forget you, user. I will die cursing your name.

It's actually simple application of maths to reality my man. The butterfly effect and chaos theory and all.
When you do something it will have that deterministic effect, the smallest alterations can and will generate a literal infinite amount of repercussions, you are what the continued stack of actions and decisions you took amount to. So a single action you do may or may not have a huge effect on your experience, as it could have on the experiences pf others, but from your point of view you will only really remark those that affect you, which happen rarely, so the medium of actions seem insignificant from your point of view even though it isn't.
Its the law of truly large numbers applied to the butterfly effect anad confirmation bias basically.
Also every action stores information on the molecules that participated, so the universe may not think as we understand it friend, but it sure as hell remembers.

That doesn't make it any less dumb, user.

this. it's pretty hard to destroy information

You're correct. That's why we should strive for greatness and the betterment of our fellow man. Whether it be through actions, written word, or kind thoughts we leave with others.

They don't want their actions to be remembered. They want their essence to be understood and recognized. There is a sense in which Newton is remembered, but could you tell me what Newton enjoyed? What paintings he thought were nice? What kinds of music he would actually dance to? His attempts at romance? His internal struggles? The things that really made him human? No, you remember his calculus and his physics, if anything.

I mean if you think about it, existing here is not just about matter and entropy. Existing here should mean more of existing as a living being in other's conciousness. We define ourselves based on other's perceptions after all. Oh, reminds me of Neon Genesis

that's what you think

t. the universe

It's forcing an optimistic view on everything. everything you do will be forgotten by people. The universe and molecules don't think, they just exist and even that will be gone one day.

Lain said [while alone]: "I only exist inside those people who are aware of my existence. But this me that's talking right now, it's me, isn't it? This me that's talking, this me, who is it?"

why is everyone taking this quote so literally when it's clear what the actual meaning is?

And that's because I'm merely human, I can't hold, record or perceive that information yet because of it's form. It existed and it is comprehensible to any entity with superior technology or """power""" than us. Or even ourselves in the future. The thing is, the past is fixed and marked, but the future is pure chaos and possibility. I understand the present necessity to be understood and looked at (and I say this in it's most innocent sense), it is the human struggle, but to deny that you can be understood or acknowledged by some superior entity (even if you believe that that entity is the universe itself as a tissue we live over) is to deny very basics laws of reality.

Sauce me on that, where is it from?

Everyone will die and be forgotten eventually.
Does it really matter how soon or later from your death that occured?

Just enjoy being alive, don't give a shit about people recognizing your achivements or not in the future.

Why should i care? It won't matter to me when i'm dead.

I think people are giving way too much importance to the fact of being remembered ( we have already made our full contribution by existing in this world), while they should primarly pursue truth and enjoy it in all its aspects.

If 2 persons have different contradicted memories, which is actually happened?
Memory is not something what you should use to measure anything.

Literally who?

Humanity will end eventually, one way or the other, in a thousand or a million years, it's a fact that at some point there will be no one left to remember us, nothing can be eternal except for the very fact that something exists.
You cannot be remembered forever, leaving your mark on humanity is futile for humanity itself is doomed to be forgoten.
Your efforts should be focused on something else.

Btw, does anybody know what were the ayyys about? Is it a significant thing in the manga? Ugly cunt creeped the shit out of me.

Bullshit, human memory and objective reality are separate. Every day the world you live in is shaped enormously by things no living human is aware of. That alone disproves this shit-tier edgy teen bait """""philosophy"""""

He's saying that even literal individual insects have a tiny impact and therefore mean something. Which is retarded and only faggots would actually believe that.
