ART being insufferable

[scp-69]

i'm still thinking about construct anatomy and guns in arms

and also about that organic to inorganic ratio and the feet

and would secunit reverse-naruto run when shooting?

and under the cut is more ramblings I am now up to chapter 9 of network effect:

it mentioned back MUSCLES? how does it have no food requirements low energy requirements and have back MUSCLES? not organic skin covering inorganics, but BACK. MUSCLES??? you are BURNING ENERGY unless all the energy is coming from whatever charges and is being converted into the energy to maintain muscles?

it has to be primarily inorganic but i am reluctantly accepting that the inorganics are covered by lots of layers of skin.

but it still needs to cover up to avoid being identified as a secunit so must also have lots of visible inorganics?

you will pry the idea of warning labels on the guns from my cold dead hands. if it can't remove logos it can't remove warning signs. it is EQUIPMENT and a WEAPON its GOTTA HAVE WARNING SIGNS. my own kneebrace has little warning sign stickers on it about the pinch risk! granted all worn off now but it came with it.

STILL waffling around feet and went for something vaguely humanoid to fit shoes but with inbuilt traction. i think it should have knives in its feet tbh and hhard to work out "not agumented, not prosthetic, not human but can fit in a human shoe".

cannot get the image out of my head of the governor module as a dog shock collar in its brain attaching to old school retro sci fi ports in the neck

speaking of ports they would be colour coded surely for the cubicle and any manual poking about.

storage under the ribs = more panels on the back too for technicians to access internals to get to work?

skinsuit = so a shorty-style scuba wet suit for space changemymind

murderbot show spoilers ahead

okay so i'm only a little over halfway through the first episode and am going to save more of my thoughts for when i've finished episode two, but i think it's interesting that this is basically a version of asr where instead of muderbot being relatively familiar with being a rouge, it is freshly hacked and does not know how to behave accordingly

which is an interesting change but when looking at it from that angle a lot of the other changes they made make a lot of sense

#and no noticable gunports?

I FORGOT ABOUT THE GUNPORTS!!!!!! WHERE IS ITS GUNPORTS...........

okay minor tv show gripes.

- things are happening very slightly out of order and its bugging me bit not in a way that i dont think they can make it a good and satisfying story. just that its a slightly Different story. which is fine. i just have to properly divorce the two in my head

- what planet was that mining facility on it wasnt named ravihyral.... did they fabricate a new backstory? i understand the narrative purpose of giving context and everything but i did Not like the way mb hacked the governor module, fantasised abour killing everyone, and Chose the name murderbot on the spot. idk. i always got the feeling that murderbot was something it chose to name itself After everything went down. it felt weird to like coldopen on mb Making that choice. u know. am i conveying this right. whatever.

- WHERE IS OVERSE AND VOLESCU OTL i understand needing a smaller cast for tv but WHERE ARE THEYYYYYYY they merged overse with pin-lee i think right..... Sad.

- throuple was wild also i dont need this interpersonal drama .

- i don't like the portrayal of the cubicle....... its a bigass contraptipn that is not a cubicle

- ?????? WHY has mb already seen worldhoppers thats its special show with art.......... mourning. Will they give it a new show to watch with art????? what does this mean for murderart

- flesh feet???,?,????? Skin On Its Inorganic Feet? i always thought they were metal. didnt they clink. flesh feet is upsetting to me
