I’ve neglected my role here, as RPN. My deepest apologies.
To catch you up to the story quickly (this would be Chapter 12 for those reading at home), our hero in the story has taken to walking the Earth in order to save it.
Which sounds all [...]

Computer power and intelligence. I actually did a video bit about this one the other night. Hopefully I’ll get it edited soon. Simple fact: We DO NOT WANT TO CREATE AN AI! Really, it would not be a good thing.

[fyi: it's actually harder than that, and I wouldn't recommend it. Ummm, like way harder. Like 99 out of a 100 that try, die. It's that kind of hard. And even if you make it, you have a 1 in a 1,000 chance of completing your mission. Welcome to tilting at [...]

It was the best of weeks, and it was the worst of weeks.
