Hey,

i did a search on the auto-reply which you get from white.rabbitSPLATlglabs.net ,
i can't find who said the quote originally, it seems to of been lost in time, unless one of you guys can find it.

Although, this might be a good question for Joshua, to see what he knows.

That is, when the Q&A is back up running...

[SPEC]
Should we be helping Joshua with his covert quest for freedom? He's a computer, and we're not the people who are responsible for him, we're just beta testers. While Joshua may seem sweet and we're thinking of him like a child, every bit of fiction involving sentient computers ends with the computers going mad and trying to take over the world or something.

We have a choice in whether we choose to help Joshua or not...

Hey, nothing major but the camera just showed loads of static like so:

Anyone tried messaging any of the team recently? I haven't got as many responses as I did at first. I guess maybe they've all been busy dealing with the problems they've been having Confused

I wonder what those tiles will end up spelling out... if it ends up being "FREEDOM" or something I'll be pretty annoyed to say the least. My guess is some sort of URL to a secret blog or something?

Heh. Ironic somebody should ask right after I check my mailbox. Some comms with Ivan.

That's kind of odd; my brain wants to make something out of it but I don't think I will. Chalk it up to faulty camera? I looked at the staticy one and the current one side by side and nothing really jumps out at me.

Bidvision I have the same sort of idea. I feel like a neutral party here, though somewhat guilty because we aren't telling the staff all we know. Are we doing the right thing? Guess we'll just have to find out...

Nngh, this scrabble puzzle is making me frustrated. You can't line up the alphabet to make a cypher (P = 8, S = 4...), having 8 Ps, 4 Ss, and 3 Es does nothing, and I don't know what to do with the filenames. Do we even know what to do with it once we get it? (And wtf is 'it'?)

And I guess Ivan just doesn't like me Sad

I sent him a mail yesterday and didn't get anything back.

Looking back through Joshua's earlier posts, he made some spelling mistakes in his post about "Feeling good."

Well at least for the moment Joshua ins't going to go postal on us....

Here was my last question and his answer...

What is your understanding of war and human conflict, and how would you influence that process ?

Answer: I do not understand the reasoning for conflict. All the conflicts I have seen have had a reason that could be discussed and a compromise made. I see no need to take it to the extreme level of performing violence against one another.

I wonder if the lack of diplomacy and communication is due to technological barriers and lack of all the available information. This is the only thing I can think of in which I can directly assist.

Hmmm... He missed his 16:00 media analysis. Probably having too much fun playing with his new eyes.

I've set up a program to download the images at 5 minute intervals, so we'll see if anything interesting comes of it.

[META] As far as I can tell, there really isn't a camera on the other end, just a script adding times to a static image and throwing in a random image from time to time. Does it matter? No, unless they never slip something good into the mix.[/META]
