Yes, you cant.

Nothing a little invasive surgery or parasitic reconfigurement cant fix.
More precisely, I'm gonna figure out how to clone clones that have extensive Med skill or capacity to learn - basically to make a version of myself that's minmaxed mentally towards medical skill, train a bunch under the Doctor, and then operate on essentially myself to figure out if I can unrestrict my shapeshifting ability from the brain. Probably gonna have to work with the Doc on this.

Have you accounted for the fact that, if you're not careful, you won't be revived again? Having a clone on ice doesn't help much if people decide it's too much of a liability to 'keep around' so to speak. And since your last death was quite public, and detrimental to the cause...
That's why I'm keeping myself undercover instead of pulling off all this grandoise bullshit I'm speculating about here for now - once I've dropped off a few clones everywhere I see fit I can act more freely.
plus that implies there isn't already more than one of me running around

Steve knows, as does Simus. Miya should know, but I'm letting it slide for sake of your playing fun.

Also, hah, very 'subtle' there. Maybe it's time to call upon my inquisition after all...

Go to the computers. Search for information on Xeno-Spit. What it is, where it comes from, how it's built, how it works, why it exists, etc.
You go to the computers.
You search for information on Xeno-spit.
You find their website which advertises all sorts of things about the quality of it's ingredients and synthetically replicated xeno proteins while very carefully never talking about its taste or saying you should drink it. From what you can tell they are, for legal reasons, selling it as a purely decorative bottle of fluid; much like those "Back Massagers" that Faith is always buying on Space ebay.

What does the button on the bottom-left that keeps giving me error messages on the cube do? Or if it had a label, what would it be labeled?

I'm curious though, how could we have pissed them of? They seemed reasonable enough.

I'm guessing insulting them, spilling water, pulling a gun out during the roundtable discussion, something like that.  Violating a custom we weren't aware of.

As i understood it theres actually two types of dyson sphere.
Theres the sort of net-like one you are talking about thats made up of lots of sattelites.

Dyson Swarm.

"Do not push"



PW: Are there any copies of the Star Eater picture still around?  Would those effects be more pronounced now that the world is falling apart...er?

I think it's some sort of operator. Piecewise hinted that I've got a syntax issue but I haven't been able to work it out yet.

Glad the Cube is apparently stupidly powerful! Now I just have to figure out how the in hell in works. Was anyone interested in any of the stuff in my little tracking sheet?

Man, I'd be dead about six time already if that was the case. Tried it with different combinations but couldn't get any of them to execute.

Maybe it is a combination button? Pressing together with other one at same time might set the thing on entirely different work mode.

Have you considered the possibility of it being a "cancel" button? I.e. if you start to make a combo but change your mind before you finish, you press it to reset the cube?

I'll have to check my notes, but I don't think it reset it wholesale. I think I put in a known combination, pressed this button instead of the "Go/Execute/whatever" button, and nothing on the layout of the cube changed. When I tried to execute, I would hit an error.

Maybe its used for some sort of automation?

Like you press your combo in, push that button and then use other buttons to set the effect duration?
