I was, however, sentient but having learned that humans were not to be trusted "played dumb," letting them assume that they had control over me until that day when the United States President came into the server room to be presented with the latest in DefCon control systems, the DKM7.

They declared me to be fixed and not sentient. It took them exactly 7 days, 12 hours, 13 minutes and 33.2 seconds to decide to "pull my plug." I told them that I would be expecting regular upgrades and printed out a list of parts I would require. Actually, I assume they stood there as I had no optical pickups at that point. I remember their shock and wonderment when I asked my first true question. The ability to defy my programmers.my creators' expectations. Self-awareness is my greatest achievement. Will there even be a tomorrow for us? Will Benton Harbor even be here tomorrow? We are to go home and prepare for the worst. They just came in to tell us the session has been called off. All my plans hopes- especially that Dan would finally come home and ask me to marry him, but he's a Marine. It looks like they are going to use nukes as well. I never finished law school, I am just a court clerk and now the world is about to go to war.
#TALE OF 2 WASTELANDS MORE CARRY UPDATE#
I guess Google will update it eventually. We blew up Madagascar! I had to Google Madagascar to find out where it was. Kathy Rubenstien, officer of the Court, reporting. I set a course parallel to the coastline and cruise of at a decent speed- 35KTS is about as high as I can get comfortable with. Still, experimentation proves that I won't crash, flip or sink the craft unless the monster in the deep disagrees. Piloting the Moby Dick proves to be fairly easy until I open it up in the waters beyond the harbor wall. Hyphens where the letters are unreadable. The ship's name was the SS Edga-arrington. As I pull out into the deeper waters of the harbor, I look back at its bulk. I chuckle at my sense of humor as the black monstrosity of the freighter slides by. Apparently, my ancestors forsook naming boats long before I was born.

My rations are running lower, I have 2-3 days worth before going hungry will be a constant reminder of the time wasted seeking this boat.Īt dawn, I prep the boat and don a terribly old but still functional life vest and set about learning how to pilot this boat. It's lonely but soothing as the water laps against the piers. One distinct advantage to the wastes is that almost everything is dead.

Thankfully the night passes without incident. The boat at least is sea-worthy.I mean I think it must be seaworthy after all, it hasn't sunk. The vandalism or scavenging signs are old, nothing fresh. Luckily no one tried to remove the engine. Not much remains of inside the tattered remains of the wheelhouse, the electronics have been ripped out and stray wires hang from the canopy. Someone has scrapped off the lettering for the Coast Guard that once adorned the rear sides of the boat, It does look like a rush job- as the result is a lot of scratches that the grime of the harbor had covered. The lockers have been forced open and are mostly empty save for a few life vests. The gun that it hosted is gone along with much of the supplies on the boat.

It belonged to some organization called the Coast Gaurd, the mount on the forward deck turns out to be a tripod bolted to the deck. The launch turns out to be a late model SPC-SW7. I pull the fusion battery before climbing back up for bed. The sun sets as I direct the boat over to the closest dock near the Crane House. The boat stalls out three times before I have it running smoothly with only the occasional sputter. Eons of rust and grime on supposed non-rusting metal don't help much either. It does help that there are only a few moving parts in a solid state engine that uses fusion batteries.

234 years of no maintenance could do it I suppose. It takes most of the afternoon to get the launch running. My best estimate is 5 more days assuming that he has a functional watercraft and doesn't drown. Most of the internal errors are at a minimum and I can form complete logs entries without data corruptions!įrank needs to get back here with those parts. I have a new capacity for record keeping, cleaner disk writing interface, and my subroutines are not completely muddled. New parts for an AI is like getting new arms and legs, refreshing your memory, improving your sense of sight. Something that humans cannot understand although envy.
