text | un: finch | subject: wikipedia addition

[ornithologist]

I've taken the liberty of using some points to request a static copy of Wikipedia be added to the network. For those unfamiliar, Wikipedia is an exhaustive collection of factual information compiled and verified by volunteers worldwide. You might consider it a digital version of the library.

For further information, I recommend the Wikipedia article on Wikipedia.

Notable features include:
    (1) It is uneditable to maintain the integrity of the source information.
    (2) You may, however, leave comments and participate in resulting forum-like conversations.
    (3) All pages with information possibly pertaining to a resident's personal history have been removed to ensure privacy.
    (4) This is a representative snapshot of Wikipedia from our collective source worlds where that is an internet-capable Earth. I'm told it's circa 2025 CE.

I do not intend to offer assistance in utilizing this resource, but the companion bots have a digital literacy module and should be able to serve in that capacity if anyone has a need.

Comments are left open for you to discuss amongst yourselves as desired. I will not be responding.

[ ooc: Feel free to start threads here about this development, or link to a Wikipedia page and indicate what your character would leave as a comment on it! Reply to one another! Do this any time, not just in this post! Snidely link others to Wiki articles instead of answering them sometimes! Note #3 is meant to indicate that fourth-walling is impossible from this.

Also, Harold wanted to disable comments, but Aurora disabled the disabling comments feature he tried to add. :( Anyway: Merry Christmas, Etraya! ]

And yet he is not.

Now admittedly, this conversation is a waste of my time, but you are correct in one part at least; it is not about the bread, it is about determining limits.

I require neither. Direct that offer elsewhere.

you want a toast sandwich?
i've got one

[sweetmilk]

I have had enough of them in my lifetime to not want to waste the energy processing it when I could use it for something else.

[rowd]

do you hate food?
???

[sweetmilk]

No.

[rowd]

have you ever eaten an entire stick of butter

[sweetmilk]

Is that a recommendation?

[rowd]

if you have butter sticks you can eat and haven't done it then you hate food

[sweetmilk]

To satisfy your hypothetical, I often starved as a child, so I did not have the luxury of hating food. If I had been lucky enough to have a stick of butter then, I might have eaten it.

[rowd]

same
except i'm not a kid anymore and there are butter sticks and they are amazing

[sweetmilk]

Should I find myself with energy to burn, I will consider it.

[rowd]

if you'd take time to do crap that's fun rather than starting bitch fights you'd probably feel a hell of a lot better

[sweetmilk]

You fail to consider the idea that perhaps I find 'starting bitch fights' fun.

[rowd]

with jayce? who already looks sad and scruffy?
pretty sure that's just bullying

[sweetmilk]

I fail to see how his appearance factors into this.

[rowd]

it's too hard to explain over this thing

[sweetmilk]

I suppose some mysteries must go unsolved.

[rowd]

or you could just tell me where you're hiding at

[sweetmilk]

I will not.

[rowd]

don't be boring

[sweetmilk]

If not divulging my location is boring, then so be it.

[hexcope]

Sam, has anyone ever told you your "helping" also sometimes looks like bullying?

[rowd]

does it help if i tell you that i'm into it

[hexcope]

Into... also bullying.

[rowd]

damn
guess i'll have to work on that
