#THE ANGLES CUT ME WHEN I TRY TO THINK

Did they fucking Binary my boys 🧍🏼

[sm0k1ng-k1lls]

HOLY SHIT. MAG 65-BINARY. tessa winters talks about how its impossible to upload human brains and consciences and consciousness to the metaverse, to a digital sort of space. what if chester and norris isn't jon and martin. what if theyre *just* chester and norris. no martin, no jon. because the human mind, our thoughts, our feelings are too analog to be digitised? because theyre more than just binary? anyways im not saying that theyre strictly*not* jon and martin, but maybe just a branch of them? like their digital footprint from when they were teenagers? or young adults who also just recently discovered the magnus institute? i meaaan if you think about it i guess!!!!!!?!?!?!??

*the angles cut me when i try to think*

[gyooza]

honestly now that we know it's likely really jon in the computer (unless the emails a red herring) then to me the greatest fear is that they could be going through whatever sergey ushanka was. I just hope he and martin aren't in pain in there

JONNY SIMS BROKE INTO MY HOME AND KILLED MY FAMILY

JONNY WHY

WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO THEM

[galliro]

See sadly, considering this is the episode where they mention John and Martin I see it as a bad omen. Combine that with Mag 65: Binary from the magnus archives this is a faith worst then death for JJM

[fishfacedterror]

hey guys

what if sam comes back next season

as a voice on the computer

[soggy-hemlock]

i'm hoping as it goes on chester and norris remember themselves a bit more and we get a statement from them about how they're doing, hopefully they're comfy :3

SAM: Uhhh, Alice? // ALICE: Yeah? // SAM: I think the text to speech AIs are in love with each other. // ALICE: Heh. Chester and Norris started flirting mid-paragraph again? // SAM: A-again? // ALICE: Ya, they do that when they get side-tracked by outside data. It's just a bug, wait it out. // SAM: Wha??

Could you imagine

[justdurgeythings]

to elaborate slightly on this idea, regarding gortash recycling durge's brain to use in a steel watcher for his personal use;

if I recall correctly, the steel watcher brains are kind of in a half-unconscious state? Like, barely aware of what they're doing, drifting in and out, to be easily controllable. but he always did like durge having their own free will, didn't he?

can you imagine how bad it would hurt to be fully awake and aware, in a body that isn't flesh, that simply doesn't fit the brain that's controlling it? I think durge would be in absolute agony, and i think that Gortash wouldn't know how to handle that fact beyond deliberately ignoring it. What else is he going to do? Put them out of their misery, after he worked so hard to preserve them?

no. no, he'll just wait it out. They're strong, after all, they're resilient and clever, they can figure out how to cope with the pain if it's so awful.

I just enjoy the image of a Gortash who doesn't know how to let go, who refuses to even consider it. No matter how much that ends up hurting durge.

Finally got to the Sergey Ushanka ep in my relisten and y’all weren’t lyin that shit rly does hit different these days huh

[bananonbinary]

im an avatar of the corruption because I have tried to put it into terms and words neurotypicals could understand, and now I stare at it and not a word of it is even enough to fully describe the fact that

I itch.

my favorite genre of images are server rooms that look like someone murdered a computer

So I am reading through the mechs fiction, and I read Archive Footage, and now I'm thinking about the difference between Ivy's brain and Brian's brain. Based on the way they talk and act, their brains obviously work very differently. Ivy usually talks in statistics and her fiction shows that she stores memory as data, more like a usual computer would. She shows that dilemma of trying to keep messy human thought inside of a binary computer. Brian on the other hand seems to speak more like someone normally would, and I haven't seen anything about his brain working in a similar way to Ivy's (I haven't read all the fiction yet tho so i might be missing something). He does have the morality switch though, which is something Ivy doesn't have. It makes me wonder about how their mechanisms were made for them to both have such different experiences with having a mechanical brain. Maybe because Brian is mostly mechanical, his brain integrates more smoothly with the rest of him, while Ivy's is more stark of a contrast? Or maybe Brian's was an attempt to have a computer brain be more outwardly human, which caused the bi-product of a morality switch that Ivy didn't need? There is much to think about and this is not even scratching the surface of my thoughts on how the mechanisms function, or how Brian and Ivy work in general.

chatGPT going nuts and it has a very "binary"esq feeling to it, someone call Jon for a statement the computers are on it again
