Also, what happened to LAINSY? From[urlhttp://lainsy.net] lainsy.net:[/url]
Code:
>> PROCESS LOOP TERMINATED. SYSTEM HALTED. AI PROCESS CHOKED : HUGE DATA PROCESSED

>> SYSTEM HALTED. ALL PROCESS SUSPENDED.

Arnold is saying the following:
Code:
SYSTEM HALTED DUE TO SYSTEM ERROR. PROCESS LOAD
EXCEEDED EXTENDED RANGE. LAST KNOWN COMMAND:

#LAINSY\REMOTE COMMAND\: Proceed

Did one of us happen to process a huge query or something? Yikes!


Um... Oops... that may be my fault... I asked for the full contact information for the FAILTech company... Um.... I don't think I should have done that... Sorry guys!!! :doh:

ETA: Also sent a request for one of the engineers on Ajax's ship to be awakened for the manual override to try to get more power to communications and make power last longer.

ETA2: I was so tempted to have Ajax warn the engineer of possible Necromorph dangers in the vicinity. I didn't but I was tempted.

ETA3: I asked LAINSY about ships within 12 light years of Earth and she came back with:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
LAINSY: Two ships within specified range. One is the unknown signal source and has been manually defined as a ship named "Pioneer" and has been declared of FAILTECH origin. The other is the Alexander class hull code 00023 ship that has been marked stolen. No available information for both regarding status and actions. Crew information not available.


ETA4: Did this thread die or something? *lol* Here's why LAINSY won't help Ajax:

Quote:
LAINSY: Negative. New information has been entered into the system based from recent data. Previously avoided location for probes has been determined to have been a newly spawned blackhole. Current location of the Alexander Class Hull Code 00023 is within close proximity of this location and has now been declated a permanently avoided location. The ship named "Pioneer" also lies close this location and is therefore inaccessible.

Hi, it appears we have some MAJOR problem. Thanks to the most recent data we have acquired, we have determined what has been disturbing the location near or around the wrecked ship named Pioneer. And it seems it is also cloase to the location where Genus has been lost and where the stolen ship is. Guess what that anomaly is....

If you guessed Black Hole, then you are right. Yes, it appears the anomaly which has been observed is a newly spawned Black Hole. We haven't determined the origin of the blackhole, but the changes from an electromagnetic cloud, to some magnetic cloud, and what not, and then a huge gravimetric anomaly are tell tale signs of the Black Hole being born. Not so much the kind that spawns from stars with all the super nova kind of thing, which is why it boggles even the scientists that reviewed our data.

Now, it is highly probable that both the Pioneer and the stolen ship is within it's gravity well and has prevent them to escape. That means, there is also a possibility that Genus Orein's ship might have been caught first and has perishied in this blackhole. We hold off from that idea, since that is just sad. I know Genus, he will find a way.

Well, that doesn't sound good.... I wonder if we could tell lainsy to send some probes over there to investigate and help out? She has those capabilities, right? I remember she can do probes, like how she can fetch things scattered in space if she finds something of interest like that child in a pod... which I wonder what happened to that child?

Jesus, my guess was right. Man, maybe this black hole isn't actually a real black hole. That's all I can think of right now.


Dan Miller wrote:
Hopefully, it is not. At least something not as dangerous as we think it is. We still can't verify, but the blackhole theory is still considered. the DSN satelites have reported observable occurance of gravitational lensing.

LAINSY has been denying any request to send any probe to confirm it, and she is fairly reasonable. The probe would be a "lost" once it reaches the location, or close it, and the only goal we would get is to confirm if the anomaly is indeed a blackhole and chances are, its signal back to the DSN might not work due to the extreme forces at work in there. So it is fairly pointless to send one out. However, science can't move forward if we don't take risks. I have called in the guys at the EGS to manually release a probe and program it. It should arrive at the location in two days and be able to report back shortly. Until then, we'll have to wait.

On the other hand, to keep ourselves entertained, we have some new intel, thanks to Patrice, that they have confirmed that Cliffside's version of the HTR Agent is indeed stolen. Not just any ordinary kind of version, apparently it is a version that has mutated to a much more hazardous state. We still have to confirm the details, since Cliffside isn't cooperating and is denying the incident.


Me wrote:
My god. Cliffside really messed up there. We haven't had such a loss as that in a while, right? I'll contact Pat, and see if I can get anymore info about it.


Dan Miller wrote:
I agree... Remember those days when we had a near-meltdown on the antarctica facility? That's one thing... It can explode and spew biohazard and kill all the penguins... But that's pretty much it. But this incident with Cliffside is a much serious case. We don't know where the biohazard is and if released could kill humans ina huge area, or in the worst case scenarios, wipe us all.


Me wrote:
Yeah, back then I felt sort of safe watching FAILTECH facilities meltdown--no offense--even with an angry LAINSY. But now, Genus might be gone, and a very dangerous biological weapon is in the wrong hands.


Dan Miller wrote:
Exactly the reason why we moved nearly all of the most hazardous experiments to the Antarctica facility. So that even if anything goes wrong, it is pretty much isolated and we can have some peace of mind that there are natural failsafes that can contain them. Now that we have something out in the wild in the wrong hands, it's just unsettling to think of when and where it might happen. I know school has just started, but I've asked my wife and daughter to agree with me to temporarily relocate at a safer place.




Well, Genus just might be dead. He may not, also. We'll see. Also, I don't think I ever got around to contacting Pat... did anyone get any info from her?

New update on ship 00023.

Quote:
LAINSY: The ship being tracked has started moving. Current destination or trajectory still unknown. Analysis indicates it might be moving to escape the blackhole's gravity well. Coincidentally, I have lost track of the unknown signal source named "Pioneer". It has stopped broadcasting any signal and have lost tracking. Scans can't track it down due to the extreme interference of the blackhole.

Currently all the private messaging line (619) 722-3245 says is:
Quote:
Announcement of the day. System currently under maintenance. Please call back again once maintenance completes.
and then it automatically hangs up.
Nox Ordo systems line 250-800-2669 is still the same, asks for a 6-digit ID which I don't have.
I'm going under the assumption that the Central Communication numbers (on the FAILTECH website) are the same -- they're just kind of an voicemail messaging service.

I'm talking to Dan about the 00023 vessel, the nature of the artificial black hole, and the ramifications of the loss of Genus and the stolen flesh virus technology. Haven't got anything solid enough yet.

Something to keep in mind: What was taken from the Pioneer, and moved onto the 00023? How the eff are they going to escape a black hole? How long does it take for Pizza Hut to deliver a pizza to my house this time of night?

It sounds like something big is in the works:

As a side note, Alex is almost done with the company re-structuring. It didn't get along with the summer target, but it is finally getting through! You'll be bound to see a "new" FAILTECH soon.

I haven't talked to Alex in a while, maybe now's a good time to say hello and catch up.

Just to say I've joined FAILTECH, but boy, what a backstory to have to work through! Going to catch up on events and pitch in whereever I can.

Got a new ping!

http://www.lainsy.net updated

Code:
20/09/2012-04:04:04GMT :: Data processing completed. Data has been archived and will be available at SFS.


I checked everywhere for the sfs, but the only sfs that "works" is at

http://www.failtechnologies.com/sfs

which comes up with a 403 error....

and also, the quote at the bottom states this:

Someone should call one of the numbers. Perhaps he's left a message. Check that voicemail thing, too.

Okay I called the private messaging line (6197223245) and all I got was the same automatic message that was there the last time I checked.
The Nox Ordo line (2508002669) is still the same, don't know a 6-digit ID.
The FAILTECH Central Communication numbers are all the same message (please leave a message at the beep, if you want a callback leave your name and number). I usually text msg one of these numbers and it acts very similar to doing a LAINSY remote command. I decided to leave a message for Fred Don:
posse wrote:
Message for FRED DON: We heard you have answers and that the future is in our hands. We are listening. If you want to contact us, feel free to leave a message back.

I got a txt back from LAINSY saying that my message has been delivered in read, so I'll let you know if I hear anything else back. Until then, keep your eyes peeled I guess!

FYI the Central Comm numbers are (from the website):
SOUTHERN (210)900-3245
NORTHERN (313)744-3245
WESTCOAST (213)444-3245
EASTCOAST (813)444-3245
