agreed my theory like ive said before on this situation those 2 disks i belive are the keys the only thing is i wonder how long before the cyphs and epn can both agree to see what these disks can do together.

When Hell freezes over, or when Veil or Cryptos lose their minds.  Whichever comes first.

How do you guys think those codes fragments written by the Oracle that were left overs for a kill code work into this?

 I have my thoughts but they seem pretty out there.

Well I think a possibility is he manages to get the frags/whole thing from the Cyphs and EPN, tries to use it, and nukes himself instead.

I don't know man, last month Cryptos laid the smack-down on Popper and we were doing the same thing, taking out Accelerators or Decelerators.

I was thinking something like that, or the killcode is for the code that "The One" carries that makes them "The One", but I'm not sure how that would work.

 and still...CENTURIES?!?

((That has to be the most realistic live event i have ever seen! Props to the two people there that made reading this post like reading a well written novel. Its the first time in ages that i've felt a connection back to the original movies. and im glad it was at such a pivital point in the plot, with respect to our dear oracle. On that topic, i can fully trust that she knows exactly what she is doing, and as mentioned it isnt the first time she's let herself be taken to save the lives of others. ))

 

It's true that some liked her, others detest.
but none will forget, as she lies on the floor.
Shes gone but not lost, for reasons untold.
Stay strong my fare friends, put her little heart to rest.

((Agreed, the lack of large numbers of people therefore no spammage plus the IC'ness of the two or three people who turned up and stayed afterwards was a delight.))

I understand that many Zionites, Machinists an even Mervs have an affinity for the Oracle Program therefore the hopes that she has somehow survived are quite normal and to be expected. Personally I think she made a sacrifice for something larger, most likely peace between Man and Machine. How this will come about I don't know. Neo made the same sacrifice but the truce he brokered as a lead to peace didn't last, perhaps the Oracle's will be a little more permanent.

I'm not sure what to make of the Oracle's death, however temporary it may be... We really can't tell going on past experience. Suffice to say that we need Halborne out of here as soon as possible, and hopefully the Machines won't let him have his way anymore on the assumption that he'll leave when he's satisfied. 'Cos he's not going to be satisfied.

(( Centuries old, eh? I knew the human colony he came from is old, but I reckoned he was just a normal guy, maybe on life support for a few years.

Why hasn't anyone else suggested that the Biological Interface Program is what allowed Neo to control Machines in the Real? Not the 'code of the One' or the usual integral anomaly thing, but the power he had that his predecessors didn't. I think it's pretty obvious... you know, biological interface. SMILEY The Oracle had ample opportunity to give it to Neo (my bet is when she gave him that piece of candy), and it'd explain why Halborne/Carlyne - whoever it was in the cinematic - was so interested when he watched the footage of Neo facing Deus Ex Machina. ))

Hmm... I'm not sure about it being the code of the One in those fragments. It's true that the Oracle plays a critical role in the awakening of the One, however I don't believe that she has the ability to hand it out like that. She has the ability to push people in a particular way, give them particular bits of information to get to an aim, depending on the person.

With Morpheus, a man with such focus and belief was naturally going to search the Matrix longer and harder for the One if the Oracle tells him that he will find the One. With Neo however, he's a much older person when he's awakened so he's even having trouble coming to terms with the Matrix not being real when he sees her, so she relies on his humanity to force him to make a choice when Morpheus sacrifices his life that he will then go and do the same for Morpheus (this is where the Jesus Christ Philosophy comes into the story again but that's another discussion for another time) . Making Neo push himself like that begins to awaken him to the possibility that he can do the impossible, which is why he faces Smith and fights rather than runs in the subway, as Morpheus put it, "He's beginning to believe."

Put simply, I think the idea of the One is that they have that potential inside of them all along and they simply have to be awoken to it. For Neo, it was the Oracle telling him about Morpheus' sacrifice, him then rescuing Morpheus (thought impossible) and him then being killed by Smith (the Oracle said, when referencing 'the gift' that Neo was waiting for,"...your next life maybe, who knows.") and being awoken to that and being reborn the One through Trinity's love. It's one of those things that you see as you go through the films, that Trinity is more key to Neo's path than anyone else. True, everyone has a part in it, however it's always her that's with him, right up to the end.

As you can see from the above, there were many factors into making Neo "The One" however, does the Oracle literally give the code to him when they meet? Hard to tell. So I don't think, personally anyway, that it's code for "The One" as there's too many factors that go into it. In terms of my other thoughts on what the code fragments could potentially be... well that's hard to say. The eyes of the Oracle can only be given... yet she does have her eyes in the shot, however it's all just code so what if that's her literal code for seeing into the future? That would then be a logical thought onto why she gave it to 2 opposing groups, to get them to work together. It equally would link into them then having Sati as the next Oracle as such. It could equally be 2 fragments of a code shell, again the similar logic applies there.

Either way, it will be interesting to see what happens now.

Remember that the Oracle chose to give those fragments to EPN and Cyph's, she chose to remain in hiding right up to the other night. She's the Oracle afterall, she knows what she's doing.

I say it's the cookies.

But Flood made a good theory: Her plan was so elaborate that it wouldn't have worked if she were alive.

Speaking of which, since when did Flood get all insightful and smart?

Nah, being able to control Machines was an ability unique to Neo. It's not a common element of being the One.

I think Halborn didn't literally mean others, as in more than one person. He was just emphasising that the Oracle had given it away before. The Architect (at least, I think it was him) made it clear that there were only two BIPs, and one had been given away already, leaving the one Halborn's after.

(( Exactly; the points I pulled from the event dialogue and a previous Machine crit pointed directly towards that, which was then followed by Zippy saying "Neo".  In any event it's semantics, we agree, tra la la. ))
