Intergalactic Summit

It's a little neat how many different ways an infomorph can get damaged.

Ms. Li loses a bunch of functional knowledge, but keeps her memories and stays basically the same person. I lose my memories and might arguably not be the same person, but still know what I knew. I've met at least one person who couldn't even remember how to do simple daily tasks, like brushing her teeth. We're all at least lucky enough to be left with intact, usable minds, though.

I wonder what it would be like to end up just ... scrambled. Broken forever. Is that, maybe, what a "cloning error" really means, before you get biomassed?

Probably. You might experience it, but you'd never know.

... so, I guess, maybe the way a slug experiences being salted? It's obvious that it hurts, or at least that something's very very wrong, but there's no storage capacity.

I read a very interesting piece from a member of pie. Although our ideals on the inherent born freedom of the individual capsuleer are vastly different, the theology of the soul fits in a very unique place as my experiences have taken me down the caliginous spiral of nothingness. It was in that void that I discovered the truth, that we are all infinite. Our consciousness, that which make us ourselves, is eternal with thoughts, ideals, and values, the fuel that keeps our essence alive.

Are you saying that you actively experienced consciousness without a brain? And if so, can you demonstrate that this isn't a memory corruption in your infomorph?

Actually I don't quite know how it happened. It was as if one day I closed my eyes for slumber, and the next awoke with intact memories and a different, yet similar body. Everything looked and felt the same as before, yet somehow I knew that it wasn't my own flesh. I have experienced severe gaps in my educational knowledge, but not in my understanding of how the knowledge is applied. Each time I train up a former skill, my cognitive technical abilities and subconscious memories are incorporated with the learned discipline. To be completely honest, I do not know if my consciousness survived outside of my brain, or if my brain was preserved.

The first gap in my memories was approximately seven years, and the second four years. I am starting to become concerned that I may have fallen into the hands of my enemies toward the conclusion of Great Northern War.

I bet you're a walking history book. I have great interest in this time period, if you don't mind I'd like to chat some time.

Jason is being an inflammatory idiot but he is not wrong about the subject John. Finding the corporation and career you want to pursue is a lifelong effort and almost no one is lucky enough to stumble into what they want to do with their lives immediately.

It is absurd you think that a shifting corporation history is because they are disloyal; They are still finding their place in New Eden.


Of course, if you have evidence of disloyalty to SniggWaffe or Horde by Jason, please message me and I will bring it to Reza directly and immediately.

Well, there was that one time he didn't throw a goon across the room for sitting in his lap...

We'll have to agree to disagree then Ayallah. Do know, I appreciate the diplomatic tone and tact. It really is a rarity among the majority of our peers these days.

Sorry if I triggered you John, but when someone starts off the discussion with an accusation of disloyalty (which I take very seriously), it kind of starts things off on the wrong foot and I am left to play to my strength and mock you as the grouchy has-been that refuses to retire into political obscurity, that you are. Don't dish out public character assassination and then cry foul when something much less impactful is hurled back at you.

And as to your claim that I don't know much about history, I seem to be more up to date on political connections than you, if you didn't even know that Horde, Spaceship Samurai, and SniggWaffe are all affiliated with Pandemic Legion, in a coalition that is arguably one of the major power blocs in New Eden right now.
