@Aradia at least you didn't have to bring out the Butt Plug Of Doom/Martial Arts skill +10.

*deep breath, cracks knuckles*

ultimately, i wish to be a single networked mind that inhabits multiple bodies simultaneously. this would most likely require quantum tunneling-level networking and unlimited bandwidth, so i would expect, best case scenario, to have inhabited at least one or two previous iterations of artificial bodies before we get to that point.

my ideal scenario is to have multiple bodies in multiple forms carrying on multiple roles--hardened carapaces and industrial strength servos for space exploration, deep sea exploration and environmental cleanup, a delicate and beautiful Soriyama-style frame for social interaction, a Hecatonchires-style body for simply wandering the earth and observing nature without needing to take anything from it.

i would not be adverse to also inhabiting a body or two that exist in a purely virtual space, perhaps for gaming purposes; or a recloned flesh body that would be stripped of the physical imperfections and sicknesses that currently make my life miserable.

if being a multiplexed mind was not an option and i had to pick one body-type that could take on multiple roles, i keep coming back to an arachnotaur-style frame--eight legs for stability and terrain traversal, spider thorax, humanoid torso and upper body for doing things that humanoid bodies are good for, like soldering, typing, waving hello and drinking tea.

@relee @001zlnv yes, and surprisingly high.

@relee @001zlnv i could see benefits for either, but if i'm going to be an AI, i might as well be the ship and not a crewmember.

@001zlnv @relee a ship AI can be a glowy naked space lady sometimes, as a treat

@relee if i can't just *be* a ship, i'd prefer to live in a deep-space vessel, dropping into hypersleep for decades at a time, emerging for a few months to make course corrections, sift through data and record scientific findings, go back into hypersleep, rinse, repeat. proooobably slipping in and out of Space Madness at various points.

so, y'know, going. Boldly.

@Momentrabbit the admin of awoo.space hasn't cleared driveinsaturday.org to federate yet, so i'm not getting the Full Moment Experience.

welp, the CLRKN0VA project (aka the #cyberdeck) has its paint job, and like i said, i am not good at applying paint to things. but in some spots i think it looks okay, i like the big black stripe along the top vent. insert your own Gibson-speak reason while any good cyberdeck is made out of recycled trash and stolen parts anyway and therefore is supposed to look kinda slapdash.
