Thanks for the feedback. :) I know confirmation bias can be very strong, but I've always had fun looking for patterns in things like this. I think this is my last escapist article, sadly, but feel free to explore the back catalogue if you want. I also write books about zombies and drugs and the...

Oh, damn! Great catch. Thanks for pointing that out. :)

I forgot about that scene! Good point.

Toys - A Fairy Tale about Drones, Surveillance, and Escapism Whether you consider it a train-wreck, or a masterpiece, Toys predicted modern drone warfare and other aspects of modern life with eerie accuracy. Read Full Article

First of all, thanks for taking the time to read through the theory in the first place, and explain your take on it. I definitely see where you're coming from. When I first started putting this together, I assumed I was jumping at conclusions too. I assumed it was all in my head. Until or...

The way I see it, those last 8 months where the president was on an oil rig setting up the enclave were too much for P.A.M. to handle. The "will they, won't they" back and forth between nuclear states weighed heavily on the already established as glitchy AI. The why is a big question though...

Nice! I'll have to look into that. The article is about 4200 words as it stands though. I think my editors would have shot me if I tried to add any more.

You're not wrong. To be completely honest, I haven't yet played Fallout 2. I've barely made it to level 4 in Fallout 1, so far. The difficulty of those games is really hardcore (and that close proximity to death is one of the big selling points of the franchise, so I don't fault the games for...

Good point. I like to imagine that P.A.M.'s endgame involves a mind transfer from her current body to that of a synth (much like you can do with Curie). Next P.A.M. would go to Acadia and take her rightful place as Queen Bee of the synths (assuming it hasn't been destroyed). Synths have a leg up...

My guess? Eight months of guesswork while the president was hiding on the oil rig off Cali coastline combined with known glitches and erratic behavior from P.A.M. Or it could be that someone in the Switchboard tried to shut P.A.M. down too, and just didn't bother to write a terminal entry...

First off, what system are you playing on? You can't start a new character at all?! That really sucks. If you've already beaten the main quest, you might still be able to check out the Switchboard and look through the terminals by going in through the sewer entrance (Between Drumlin Diner and...

Is P.A.M. the Skynet of Fallout? My only advice to Fallout players is this: Don't trust P.A.M., whatever you do. Read Full Article

God I miss Calvin and Hobbes. Thanks for bringing a tear of nostalgia to my eye. And it's really hard to argue with his logic here, btw.

Very well said! As I've said before, I'm super excited about what will come of these studies, and other email dumps. However you make an excellent argument about the sheer improbability of us ever making contact. But one can always hope. Good read! Thanks for taking the time to share your...

It could be a limited number of things. The point I made is that more and more possibilities are being eliminated as the findings are studied. One such possibility is ETI. However, this article isn't about just one bit of news in the matter, but three simultaneously unfolding news stories. So...
