It makes sense with this context. And people say they LIKE the more-me. I guess I should mask less. Or drink more. Both are PERFECTLY GOOD SOLUTIONS.

Oh god that's what people say about me too

Is it a compliment? Is it a burn? Is it a mysterious third thing?

No! Rebooting is the LAST thing you do when troubleshooting. You gather data and work through the checklist first, then make sure everything critical is backed up. That universe had nearly fourteen billion years’ uptime!

We'll have to take it down for Y15B anyway. Read the patch notes and make sure your cosmology is compatible with the new settings. Don't just check stars, they work under practically any fundamental framework. That doesn't mean self-replicating chemistry (sometimes called "life") still works.

And for the last time, a backup stored in the same manifold is not a backup, it's a hope!

thinking about hostile waters all of a sudden

"Boss, we've tracked down the rebel group you wanted us to look into."

"Finally, some allies. Good work! What's their stance, then?"

"They're a resistance group, they believe they can overthrow the system through strictly non-violent-"

"Oh for fuck's sake. Alright, beat them up. Kill a few if you have to."

"What! But... Boss, why?"

"If they can't shame me out of having the shite beaten out of them, they're not gonna shame the rich into handing over the means of production, are they?"
