    The other quote a friend of mine recently uttered: _"No, the imperium is not unable to create new technology. There is exactly _*_one_*_ 'person' who still invents things, and everybody wants to f@cking kill him for it, but can't because he's basically their only hope of getting shit done."_

    I personally like how the Not-AI Cawl warns Guilliman about restoring the Emperor:
    'If it is possible to restore the Emperor, and if He could regain true life, then what went into the throne room of the Imperial Palace may not be what emerges. There is great peril considering this, even as a hypothesis, because thoughts lead to actions, whether we intend them to or not. Before you know it, we reach disaster, all from good intentions.' There was a pause. 'They used to say that. About roads to bad places. Paved with good intentions.'
    'Why would it be perilous? Expand.'
    'Because all gods are blights on existence, Roboute Guilliman, whether they call themselves gods or not,' the Cawl Inferior said. 'I think you know that better than anyone. Do not forget it.'
    There was silence.

      @@jerzyksudak945 for the chaos marines it's not actually that because most of them have been whithin the Eye of Terror, thus warp-ruled space and the concept of time is very random there. Many chaos marines have experienced just a century or two since the Horus Heresy, some experienced a few millenia but not much more. So unless they're HEAVILY mutated by chaos they wouldn't be able to still be alive for 10 thousand years (and even then it would mostly be the ones corrupted by Nurgle).
      One of the best example for that is when Sigismund fought Abaddon and died, he was more than a thousand years old, quite weakened, and Abaddon had pretty much not aged a day since the Heresy by comparison.

We add pieces to it constantly as we absorb new data, and we can forget things from it, when we recall data we literally experience the pattern of neurons that were there before, that data is momentarily gone from hard storage in that spot, and then we re-write it to the same spot, with added connections because we now associate it, at least temporarily, with when we just recalled it. Our brains ARE a Ship of Theseus model.
