I dunno if there's a single good explanation for that. The best I can come up with is a bit assumption heavy. The Sentinels had to be wireless and very simple intellectually - that makes sense, since they seem to take orders from Smith in...
I think it makes more sense if you think too much about the "Why not use cows" problem. If you assume that part of the Matrix is included in every individual's brain (using them, effectively, as RAM), and then read the initial text of the...
The Merov is a self-described "trafficker of information." Most likely this is a reference to some sort of communications protocol, which would also explain why he is in control of the majority of the exiles - with the ability to transfer...

"I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my life" “But if you already know, how can I make a choice?” - Neo. The Oracle is able to predict, to a certain degree, outcomes. Her ability to do so is not, however, without limitations....
I believe it's that the Architect that eventually ends up screwing up everything, given that every system he's made keeps forcing massive errors. I mean, sure, a lot of people use your system, but that doesn't make your more intelligent th...
Would there need to be? The point of the Matrix is that the human mind 'develops' the software around itself. Part of the system is the user. How else would an individual be able to affect the code by force of will? Can you imagine anythin...

Ah, my apologies... looking for a good link. Here 's a pretty good write-up on it. A nice little example can be seen here and here. It's not a major issue on lower tier items, but as time goes on, you start losing huge amounts of $info. Me...
Be CAREFUL with the marketplace. Most items there are significantly overpriced - you can't afford to be tempted by the nice guns. That said, do pay some attention to it. Particularly Item Codes tend to have some at a viable price, and if y...
a) The activation of the first EMP disables all other EMPs within a large radius. Without having the abilty to move fresh ones in faster than the Sentinels can move and without having the fresh ones damaged by secondary attacks, Zion only...
I guess this shows where Mr. Popper stands on the "innocent have nothing to fear from the law" viewpoint. Can't say I blame him, in this case, although it doesn't say much about his organization that this was the best choice.
Yeah, beware the evil giant machine conspiracy to... er... Lose a battery? That doesn't sound very efficient. Make Anome look like a fool? We don't need to bother for that to occur. Make Cypherites look like idiots? Again, already done. An...
A length of rope to get down, an automatic rifle and the element of surprise to take out the agents, and hyperjump to get the hell out, but they decided to use the tools the SWAT team so kindly provided?
That's a valid point, Illyria, but Smith may very well have had other reasons. He and his fellow agents could even have been specifically designed to attempt to destroy Zion without the One existing. The One was, after all, only a method o...
