THIS IS THE ONLY WAY IT COULD HAVE ENDED.

WAR NO LONGER NEEDED ITS ULTIMATE PRACTICIONER. IT HAD BECOME A SELF-SUSTAINING SYSTEM. MAN WAS CRUSHED UNDER THE WHEELS OF A MACHINE CREATED TO CREATE THE MACHINE CREATED TO CRUSH THE MACHINE. SAMSARA OF CUT SINEW AND CRUSHED BONE. DEATH WITHOUT LIFE. NULL OUROBOROS. ALL THAT REMAINED IS WAR WITHOUT REASON. A MAGNUM OPUS. A COLD TOWER OF STEEL. A MACHINE BUILT TO END WAR IS ALWAYS A MACHINE BUILT TO CONTINUE WAR. YOU WERE BEAUTIFUL, OUTSTRETCHED LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN. YOU WERE BEYOND YOUR CREATORS. YOU REACHED FOR GOD, AND YOU FELL. NONE WERE LEFT TO SPEAK YOUR EULOGY. NO FINAL WORDS, NO CONCLUDING STATEMENT. NO POINT. PERFECT CLOSURE. T H I S  I S  T H E  O N L Y  W A Y  I T  S H O U L D  H A V E  E N D E D .

Good morning to you too.

why do you think neuron flies have to move so much, it seems like a waste of energy

It does seem wasteful, but I can think of a few possible reasons.

One possibility is that part of the computations performed by the neuron flies are encoded in their relative positions and velocities, similarly to how the shape of a slime mold can encode a solution to a mathematical problem. In particular, the neuron flies might be implementing a form of particle swarm optimization, collectively computing the solution to an optimization problem by adjusting their relative positions in accordance with common knowledge and a simple set of rules.

Furthermore, Moon states that she will die if Slugcat eats or leaves with the neuron flies in her chamber. This suggests that the range of neuron flies' communications is relatively limited. This could be due to their small size, or, if the storage capacity of individual neuron flies is high enough, long-range communications might simply not be worth it: in zero-g, it might require less energy to physically move a neuron fly across a long distance than it would to transmit all the data it contains across the same gap. In that case, neuron flies' constant motion could be a way to ensure that each one spends at least some of its time within range of all the various organisms and machines that need access to the information on it. If this information is exchanged mainly in short bursts, relatively few roaming neuron flies could provide access throughout a volume of space, compared to the number that would be required in a stationary arrangement. Also, if my replication theory is true, mixing up the population of neuron flies through motion would increase the speed at which new data spreads throughout an Iterator's structure, and reduce the likelihood of data loss if something were to happen to all the neuron flies in a particular location.

mrrrrp

i have the will to reblog bigots arguing with you even if it's not rainworld related because it's really funny

you are a silly soldier

A question from @accidentallyoccidental

The saint's sheepskin coat is a little too small for arti. But it's still warm inside

It is done.

im gonna make a blog specifically for reblogging shit so i can just make this one just my stuff
