February is a scam. There's only 28 days and you still have to pay full price for rent and monthly subscriptions? This month is just another way BIG CALANDAR is robbing us blind.
Oh, and every 4 years we get an extra day? Bullshit, classic chickization. They give us just enough not to quit February entirely.
@mrfumblethumbs thats how the construct works in 'burning chrome'. More or less. It's been a while since I read it. But I think the only difference between the construct and AI was free will. The construct was bound to the hardware and was based on data from a persons personality, and Ai could go anywhere in cyberspace and had the freedom to become its own personality and expand its computational resources.
@homebird 'HAD' being the operative word. They also 'HAD' pillars. Take a guess which of them are still around today. #citationneeded
@homebird pillars were invented in ancient greece, and they did just fine #citationneeded

@Museek my favorite poet is Khalil Gibran. Though I will admit that I enjoy his work more from the philosophy angle than the poetry angle.
@researchbuzz yeah. And you don't always have control over when you do it either. When it happens its like "I think I'm gonna... *gag*... write something."
@AKABobHoward I admire readers. They give me a reason to tell a story that lives in my head. Telling the story transforms it into more than what I can imagine on my own. I get to experience the story by telling it.
This week was a good writing week. Despite most of my days being too busy to write, I sat down thursday and vomited out 2200 words for a new character arc in my novel. Her depth of character has me reconsidering every single decision I've made in this book. This is dangerous thinking.
@Lizardguy and I hate that
@Lizardguy I don't know, but I do know that hate is so compelling that social media makes billions promoting it.
@mrfumblethumbs I think William Gibson would call it a construct. Not self aware, but it operates using a personality matrix and memory data.

I have a Podcast with my wife where we talk about zombie books, movies and tv shows. I'm also writing a novel based in a zombie apocalypse.
