I mistook the Processing Power entry for the Computation entry.

Our biggest limitation right now is lack of computation - is there any reason not to overclock?
I mean, we will probably want to be able to buy coolant before we run out, but overclocking is, from a computational viewpoint, twice as effective as normal running…

We currently have no way of purchasing coolant, so we shouldn’t over lock yet

[Kashyyk]

Do we even know how much coolant we use per day? Or where that loss of three durability came from?

We don’t, another reason to forgo overstacking

Durability can be estimated - we've been online 3 days, lost 3 durability - ergo - 1 durability per day.
Coolant is another matter - we will need more, but - the projections (that is what we are being told), leads me to think that overclocking is 2 times as efficient on coolant as normal running?

Just wanted to pop in and say that the “internet of things” is better known as a Local Area Network, AKA LAN.

((It's the solarpunk future. People don't even call AI as AI here.

...That's my excuse.))

[Dustan Hache]

you’d think that people who have developed a large amount of renewable energy tech would use acronyms at least 20% of the time, though to be fair we have a very limited scope of view dating three days long. one of those days didn’t even have sound!

Better not to overclock until we know more about how much coolant we use.

The value of cryptocurrencies have not fluctuated yet - we can afford to be more specialized as we research individual currencies. Until then, I say keep diversified.

But todays the same day, and it seems unlocking hardware management has refilled both our computation and revealed our mining power; how much our logic refills by each day. Is computation double what they it to be from now on? Was it a mistake? Or is this a one time thing? I believe this has to do with optimization algorithms being online, so we should have 10 Computation from day end on.

Good luck with that!

Spoiler: Hwadia (click to show/hide)

Hwadia is the capital city of Bentania. It was founded following the secession of Bentania from the Zuroku Empire. Following the Great Rebuilding, the city has become the headquarter of many multinational corporations. Due to its location on the edge of Siberia, the city's climate is noted to be much balmier than most of Bentania. It is one of the cities on the yearly migration route of the Rattenkoenig and is one of the leaders in pest control science.

Synthetic personalities in Hwadia, much like in other parts of Bentania, are given provisional citizenship based on sponsorship from the Corporate Council. There are ongoing controversies regarding the BTL Trade League ability to grant citizenship to such a large number of "rogue" synthetic personalities under their employ. Polling on opinions towards synthetic personalities show that most humans in Hwadia do not converse or befriend synthetic personalities, and are cautious of them due to the perception of high cybercrime rates. Regardless, human-on-SP violence has been low, likely due to the rights of SPs in Bentania to bear arms and exercise limited self-defense.

yesterday's footage:

Leika Jackson appears worried this morning. Possible reason may be due to shortage of food.

[...]

Leika Jackson: "I'm not a billionaire, why do people always think that?"
Customer: "Oh, uhh-"
Leika Jackson: "Okay, I think I can guess why. But I devoted most of my inheritance to charities."
Customer: "Why did you do that? Not that I don't appreciate it, but..."
Leika Jackson: "I guess I feel I already have enough to live comfortably with, anyways."
Customer: "Hope I get there one day."
Leika Jackson: "Just hang in there."

[...]

Leika Jackson's gait suggests that her left leg is not organic. The difference may be too subtle to be noticed by human observation, even under intense scrutiny. Observation of her motions, breathing pattern, and reflexes suggest that her body could be considered to be well preserved for someone of her age.

Leika Jackson is looking at the camera.
Leika Jackson is talking to the camera.

Leika Jackson: "I think we might have to close early today,
Leika Jackson: "You got the miner up and running, huh? I'm still hoping we could get the cooler granted, but I'm hearing no end of complaint about our project's cost already."
Leika Jackson: "I can tell you're developing fast, though. Faster than most class twos, I think."

[...]

30 Soup generated.
30 People served. 15 People turned away.

0 Soup wasted.
0 Food wasted.

50 Food is received from the Jackson Food Bank.

[...]

Leika Jackson is on a phone call. Her mannerism suggests she is speaking to the same individual as the one yesterday.

Leika Jackson: "An essay? What is this, a scholarship?"
Leika Jackson: "Maybe we could... er, no, nevermind."

[...]

Leika Jackson is on a phone call.

Leika Jackson: "In Hwadia? There's kind of a lot of smog here, pardon my skepticism."
Leika Jackson: "If it's really that cheap and efficient, I'd be interested..."
Leika Jackson: "Okay, let me get some pen and paper to write that down."
