A man from some backwater part of Solitude joined 13. His translation router was faulty and he had a real hard on for mindflood. We were trying to get him to fly logistics for us, and were struggling through the language barrier and the drugs to get him down the right chain.
Long story short he ended up taking a wrong turn, got killed by some other J-Space dwellers we weren't expecting and took a long freeze. I hear they finally managed to get a working brain scan of his again about a year later. It was hilarious.
Why do you choose to fly with the people you do currently?

"Execute" and "Kill" mean different things to normal people and our IT branch people. They're so different they are even consireded synonyms and antonyms in different circles.

Oh, this is where you start getting into philosophy and so on, where everything turns fuzzy, instead of having concrete answers.
One school of philosophy has 3-factors, sentience being one of them, the others being intelligence, and self-awareness. Sentience in that case, is the ability to feel, to experience things subjectively. Intelligence is the ability to reason, and self-awareness is the ability to understand things like mirrors and so on, recognising oneself as being an entity separate from other entities and the environment, etc.
The word sentience though, is often used in many different ways, with quite different meanings. E.g. suppose there was some kind of alien, capable of discussing things here on the IGS. Some people would say that alien was "sentient", which is not really the same thing. Similarly, those people would say a machine capable of discussing things on the IGS, was also "sentient". Not quite the same thing as the thing I mentioned earlier.
But that's all a bit philosophical and woolly.
So, What's your opinion on the latest Neo-Takmahl fashion trend, with its emphasis on human-leather clothing ? Personally, I find it terribly gauche.

I like my present self. You know, I could do away with a bad habit or two, and there's a thing or three I want to forget, or conversely, experience -- but increasingly, I'm starting to think it's time for me to go out and change the world, instead of just bending myself to it.
Do you enjoy this sort of radical, public honesty, or is this a confessional of some sort?

The main difference is just-- there's a trick of perspective I want to learn. I want to be able to sense the flow of things without thought, to move with the world not as a fish in the river, but as the water itself.
I want to be wise, instead of just clever.

Jev North wrote:Do you enjoy this sort of radical, public honesty, or is this a confessional of some sort?
I actually do enjoy this. Answering is purely voluntary, so awkward questions can just be waited out, and we're getting to see little snippets of people's real selves. And it's not like I've ever actually been very shy about doing such things myself; some of the first work I did on the IGS was a public journal. |

My grandmother told me about henkjin, corpses brought back to life by cold-hearted sorcerers to drag people away into the winter night. One of the details was that their lips would be stitched shut, so as to not give themselves away, or irritate their masters, with their constant tormented moaning.
Then I read the Arataka Consortium's report on the Drifter they autopsied, and, well.

I have been putting it off though for fear of wasting another meal on something I'm fairly certain I'll fail to enjoy again.

Yes.
Do you ever worry, that the capsule is in fact an elaborate practical joke by the Jovians, and that nothing you do whilst in the capsule is actually real ?
I mean, take off from a particular station, do something in space, then return to the same station. What actual evidence do you have, that anything you did while in space, actually happened ?

Eh ... maybe they just hadn't considered that just because no one has to answer a question doesn't mean you can't make it a good one, my lord. On which note: not actually surprised, more just glad I wasn't wrong.
