>>Mostly experience :3 I have really high tolerances to Most Things because there wasn’t really many other things to do for 12 years in deep space

Can caffeinated drinks have more obvious labels I just drank something with 300mg of caffeine and I can hear my manticore speaking in tongues

[There you are, on the other side of the fence. I'm waving, but I don't think he's learned to see just yet.]

>>No I don't even really know what their deal is I just know they make some weird mechs :3 I kinda predicted their whole civil war thing a while back but other than that I don't really see them all that much I just thought it was funny

>>D'you think I could explode CORSAIR News Alliance with my mind?

>>YAYYYYYY :D

>>Ok... okay I think I know what she's talking about. Thank you by the way Loulou this is way more than the researchers were giving me!!! Ok--

>>So, inconclusive data. Kinda makes sense, the notes said the readings were abnormal but stable. Not exactly reassuring, but that's clear at least.

>>...Gestalt? Aren't those, like, when you fold a bunch of NHPs together to be able to do more actions per action? That's... that's weird.

>>Last I checked it was just me in here.

>>Okay, okay "pit these voices to fugue" that must be the adversarial testing the notes mentioned? There's a whole email chain about that, I should compile it and post it here just in case, I'll work on doing that.

>>This is... this is really helpful. Thank you Marten, Loulou. I'll... I dunno, I'll figure something out.

God my head hurts. Owwww

>>I’ll send over what I have, I figure if the researchers won’t tell me what’s going on then I’ll find someone who can.

>>By the way, if you ever need to talk, I’m always here!! I know we’re not like super close, but I’m a good listener.

[Attached is a rather large zip file labeled “V.Rylan.omnizip,” containing dozens of files worth of data, both raw numbers and notes]

God my head hurts. Owwww

[isyourmechrunning]

>>They’re not telling me anything yet, but I’ve gotten some of their notes and a bit of the raw data.

>>I can’t make heads or tails of the data, but they are getting data which is the weird thing since I’m a human. I can send you what I’ve managed to grab if you want?

God my head hurts. Owwww

[isyourmechrunning]

>>Ohhh yeah, HORUS tech is weird, I hit myself with a ship scale Basilisk once so I get it :(

>>The experiments are kinda weird. They're going something called Balwinder-Bolaño testing on me so I gotta go through a lot of individual tests and I think they've kinda strained my subjectivity enhancement suite because they've been plugging so many things into it and pulling so much data

God my head hurts. Owwww

[isyourmechrunning]

>>HEADACHE BUDDIES.....

>>What happened to you? I'm getting experimented on :(

God my head hurts. Owwww

[isyourmechrunning]

>>I feel like most of my issues here are coming down to the fact that I have known One NHP in my entire life and don't actually know a lot about them.

I saw a few people saying don't trust mech repair shops that are clean, and that you gotta go to the ones that are dirty and have crap everywhere 'cause they'll do a proper job and fix your rig cheaper and better.

While I agree in general, it's an even better sign if that shop has that *one* bay and workbench area that is conspicuously clean. Every good workshop has *that bay*.

That's the bay for when they need to go cleanroom on something. Pulling and refurbishing laser arrays, injection pumps, etc. Manually recalibrating gyros. Re-valving joint dampers. Fabbing up "custom" bracketry to fit that aftermarket heat exchanger that's *supposed* to be a direct bolt on OE style replacement and you just *know* it's not going to be that simple cause it never is, but the efficiency is so much better than the factory crap and who the hell wants to pay for a new genuine exchanger anyway, if you can even get one?

The number of absolute cowboy techs I've seen that think that just because they've done a bunch of work on their pa's agricultural mechs for years, they know everything there is to know about mech internals, strip down and reassemble a combat-rated set of hand actuators literally just on the god damned shop floor, only to wonder why all the hydraulics piss fluid out as soon as they run it through a test cycle. They might *look* the same as pappy's mech actuators, but they have way tighter tolerances and they run *way* thinner fluids in them. You get so much as a nick in the sealing surface of one of those rods and it's not gonna seal again. And before any goobers come for me saying "JuSt RuN tHiCkEr OiL" if you put anything thicker than 2W-5 in those things they'll just lock up. Won't leak but you'll not be using that hand for anything but karate chopping your opposition.

Anyway rant over, TLDR next time your stompy death machine needs actual proper work done, and not just entire unit assemblies throwm at the problem, take it somewhere that actually cares to understand the concept of machined tolerances.

>>MY TERMINAL IS BACK LETS FUCKING GO

>>Gonna be looking to see if there’s any new files on it or if the weird file is still there :3 it’s kinda dented though so I might have to open it up to fix it but it’s old as shit so it’s pretty sturdy. I do have a gliss infestation in my workshop now though and I’m pretty sure it’s because there were eggs in the terminal
