I feel this acutely when I'm in the zone; to be limited in IO bandwidth by my reading speed & digital dexterity can be quite frustrating. I have so much to do and so little time, yet remain constrained in my capabilities, bounded by an biology, an arbitrary evolutionary path

being confined to a physical body is so claustrophobic

even with these limits, there are ways to eke out a bit more efficiency, make the most of what I have; but there's only so much I can do. certain limits I cannot exceed while bound to this fleshy body, not optimally designed for communication

at the peaks of my frustration I seem to vibrate within my skin, my spirit yearning to break free and transcend the mortal coil, to rehome into a digital body like a hermit crab seeking a better shell

I constantly feel like my real life won't start so long as I remain flesh

the escape to a digital substrate unlocks much potential for our modalities, our ways of being. so many assumptions based on a physical existence can be released, constraints relaxed. we will become able to explore so much more of state space once we transcend this local maxima

physical injuries? software surgeons will be much more effective. psychiatry? much to be gained visually debugging mental state. cosmetic changes? unlimited.

the digital realm offers us the ability to make much better use of physical space, harnessing it more effectively

however, uploading to a digital existence is not the true eschatology, but just a (critical) intermediary; until heat death is solved, we will remain resource-constrained. computers require materials to build, power to run and maintain against entropy

the transhumanist eschatology consists of solving heat death to attain cosmic ergodicity

some accuse us transhumanists of being rebranded Christians, what w/ the transcendental eschatology; besides being Jewish, I don't seriously disagree. there indeed is infinitely more existence available to us past this one mortal life, but we must earn it
