Brother makes a demon-haunted printer

I'm on a 20+ city book tour for my new novel PICKS AND SHOVELS. Catch me in RICHMOND TOMORROW (Mar 5) and in AUSTIN> on Mar 10. More tour dates here. Mail-order signed copies from LA's Diesel Books.

You guys, I don't want to bum you out or anything, but I think there's a good chance than some self-described capitalists aren't really into capitalism.

Sorry.

Take incentives: Charlie Munger, capitalism's quippiest pitchman, famously said, "Show me the incentive and I’ll show you the outcome." And here's some mindblowing horseshoe theory for ya: Munger agrees with the noted Communist agitator Adam Smith, whose anti-rentier, pro-government-regulation jeremiad "The Wealth of Nations" contains this notorious passage:

It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities, but of their advantages.

Incentives matter – if you design a system that permits abuse, you should expect abuse. Now, I'm not 100% on board with this: every one of us has ways to undetectably cheat the system and enrich ourselves, but most of the time, most of us play by the rules.

But it's different for corporations: the myth of "shareholder supremacy" has reached pandemic levels among the artificial lifeforms we call corporate persons, and it's impossible to rise through the corporate ranks without repeating and believing the catechism that there is a law that requires executives to lie, cheat and steal if it results in an extra dollar for the investors, in the name of "fiduciary duty":

https://pluralistic.net/2024/09/18/falsifiability/#figleaves-not-rubrics

And this attitude has leaked out into politics and everyday life, so that many of our neighbors have been brainwashed into thinking that a successful cheat is a success in life, that pulling a fast one "makes you smart":

https://pluralistic.net/2024/12/04/its-not-a-lie/#its-a-premature-truth

In a world dominated by a belief in the moral virtue and legal necessity of ripping off anyone you can get away with cheating, then, sure, any system that permits cheating is a system in which cheating will occur.

This shouldn't be controversial, but if so, how are we to explain the whole concept of the Internet of Things? Installing networked computers into our appliances, office equipment, vehicles and homes is an invitation of mischief: the software in those computers can be remotely altered after you purchase them, taking away the features you paid for and then selling them back to you.

Now, an advocate for market-based solutions has a ready-made response to this: if a company downgrades a device you own, this merely invites another company to step in with a disenshittifying plug-in that makes things better. If the company that made your garage-door opener pushes an over-the-air update that blocks you from using an ad-free, well-designed app and forces you to use an enshittified app that forces you to look at ads before you can open the garage, well, that's an opportunity for a rival company to sell you a better software update for your garage-door opener, one that restores the lost functionality:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/11/09/lead-me-not-into-temptation/#chamberlain

I'm no hayekpilled market truefan, but I'm pretty sure that would work.

However.

The problem is that since 1998, that kind of reverse-engineering has been a felony under Section 1201 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which bans bypassing "an effective access control"

https://locusmag.com/2020/09/cory-doctorow-ip/

There's a pretty obvious incentive at play when companies have the ability to unilaterally alter how their products work after you buy them and you are legally prohibited to change how the product works after you buy them. This is the first lesson of the Darth Vader MBA: "I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further":

https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/26/hit-with-a-brick/#graceful-failure

I've been banging this drum for decades now – like when I got into a public (friendly) spat with the editor of Wired magazine over their reviews of DRM-based media devices. I argued that it was irresponsible to review a device that could be unilaterally downgraded by the manufacturer at any time, without – at a minimum – noting that the feature you're buying the gadget for might disappear without warning after you've shelled out your hard-earned money:

https://pluralistic.net/2022/12/03/painful-burning-dribble/#law-of-intended-consequences

Of course, companies that get a reputation for these kinds of shenanigans might lose market share to better competitors. Sure, if the company that made your phone or your thermostat or your insulin pump reached into it across the internet and made it worse, you're shit out of luck when it comes to that device. But you can buy your next device from a better company, right?

Well, sure – in a competitive market, that's a plausible theory of "market discipline." Companies that fear losing business to rivals might behave themselves better.

In theory.

But in practice, the world's "advanced economies" have spent the past 40 years running an uncontrolled experiment in what happens if you don't enforce competition law, and instead allow companies to buy all their competitors. The result is across-the-board industrial oligopolies, cartels, duopolies and monopolies in nearly every category of good and service:

https://www.openmarketsinstitute.org/learn/monopoly-by-the-numbers

Now, even a duopoly has some competition. If you don't like Coke, there's always Pepsi. But again, in practice, companies in concentrated industries find it easy to "tacitly collude" to adopt one another's worst habits – the differences between the outrageous payment processing charged by Apple's App Store and the junk fees charged by Google Play are about as meaningful as the differences between Coke and Pepsi.

Which brings me to printers.

I know.

Ugh.

Printers are the worst and HP is the worst of the worst. For years, HP has been abusing its market dominance – and its customers' wallets – by inflating the price of ink and rolling out countermeasures to prevent you from refilling your old cartridges or buying third-party ink. Worse, HP have mastered the Darth Vader MBA, bushing updates to its printers that sneakily downgrade them after you've bought them and taken them home.

Here's a sneaky trick HP came up with: they send a "security update" to your printer. After you click "OK," a little progress bar zips across the screen and the printer reboots itself, and then…nothing. The printer declares itself to be "up to date" and works exactly like it did before you installed the update. But inside the printer, a countdown timer has kicked off, and then, months later, the "security update" activates itself, like a software Manchurian Candidate.

Because that "security update" protects the security of HP, against HP customers. It is designed to detect and reject the very latest third-party ink cartridges, which means that if you've just bought a year's worth of ink at Costco, you might wake up the next day and discover that your printer will no longer accept them – because of an update you ran six months before.

Why does HP put such a long fuse on its logic bomb? For the same reason that viruses like covid evolve to be contagious before you show symptoms. If the update immediately broke compatibility with third party ink, word would spread, and some HP customers would turn off their printers' wifi before the "security update" could be applied to them.

By asymptomatically incubating the infection over a long, patient timescale, HP maximizes the spread of the contagion, guaranteeing a global pandemic of enshittiification:

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/11/ink-stained-wretches-battle-soul-digital-freedom-taking-place-inside-your-printer

HP has done this – and worse – over and over, and every time I write about it, people pop up to recommend their Brother printers as the enshittification-free alternative. I own a Brother, an HL3170-CDW laser printer that's basically indestructible, cheerfully accepts third-party toner, and costs almost nothing to run.

But I still don't connect it to my wifi. The idea that Brother is a better company than HP – that is possesses some intrinsic antienshittificatory virtue – has always struck me as a foolish belief. Brother has means, motive and opportunity to push over-the-air downgrades to block third-party ink as HP.

Which is exactly what they've done.

Yesterday, Louis Rossman, hero of the Right to Repair movement, revealed that Brother had just pushed a mandatory over-the-air update that locks out third-party ink:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpHX_9fHNqE

Rossman has a thorough technical breakdown of the heist, but it boils down to this. Brother is just as shit as HP. Look from the men to the pigs and the pigs to the men all you want – you will never spot the difference. Take the Pepsi Challenge – bet you won't be able to guess which is which:

https://wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Brother_ink_lockout_%26_quality_sabotage

This was the absolutely predictable outcome of the regulatory incentives our corporate overlords created, the enormous, far-reaching power we handed to these corporations. With that great power came no responsibility:

https://pluralistic.net/2025/02/26/ursula-franklin/#franklinite

Filling our devices with computers that run programs that can be changed in secret, that we're not allowed to inspect or alter? It's a recipe for a demon-haunted world, where the devices we entrust with our livelihood, our privacy and our wellbeing are possessed by hellions who escape from the digital Tartarus and are unleashed upon humanity.

Demons have possessed the Internet of Things. It's in Teslas:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/28/edison-not-tesla/#demon-haunted-world

and in every other car, too:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/24/rent-to-pwn/#kitt-is-a-demon

Our devices – phones, pacemakers, appliances and home security systems – are designed to prevent us to find out what they're doing. That means that when malicious software infects them, then – by design – these devices prevent us from knowing about it or doing anything about it:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/01/18/descartes-delenda-est/#self-destruct-sequence-initiated

This should not come as a surprise to anyone. Show me the incentive and I'll show you the outcome.

Write One to Throw Away?

If you're in the software industry for long enough, you'll hear this advice eventually. There's an infamous Catch-22 to writing code:

You don't deeply understand the problem (or its solution space) until you've written a solution.

The first solution you write will have none of that hindsight to help you.

So it naturally shakes out that you have to write it at least one time before you can write it well, unless you're stricken with exceptional luck. And the minimum number of attempts you will need is two: one to throw away, and a second attempt to keep.

It's just math. It's just logic. Write one to throw away. It's got the world's easiest proof. You'd have to be some kind of idiot to argue with it!

Okay, hear me out...

As you work on bigger and older projects, you will continuously be confronted with a real-world reality: that requirements are an input that never stops changing. You can make the right tool for the job today, but the job will change tomorrow. Is your pride and joy still the right tool?

If you're like most developers, your first stage of grief will be denial. Surely, if we just anticipate all the futures that could possibly happen, we can write code that's ready to be extended in any possible direction later! We're basically wizards, after all - this feels like it should work.

So you try it. You briefly feel safe in the corrosive sandstorm of time. Your code feels future proof, right up until the future arrives with a demand you didn't anticipate, which is actually so much harder to write thanks to your premature abstractions. Welcome to the anger stage. The YAGNI acronym (you ain't gonna need it) finally registers in your brain for what it is - a bitter pill, hard-won but true.

But we're wizards! We bargain with our interpreters and parsers and borrow checkers. Surely we can make our software immortal with the right burnt offerings. We can use TDD! Oops, now our tests are their own giant maintenance burden locking us into inflexible implementation decisions. Static analysis and refactoring tooling! Huh, well that made life support easier, but couldn't fix fundamental problems of approach, architecture and design (many of which only came into existence when the requirements changed).

As the sun rises and sets on entire ISAs, the cold gloom eventually sets in. There is no such thing as immortal software. Even the software that appears immortal is usually a vortex of continuous human labor and editing. The Linux kernel is constantly dying by pieces and being reborn in equal or greater measure - it feels great to get a patch merged, but your name might not be in the git blame at all in 2 years time.

I want to talk about what happens when your head suddenly jumps up in astonished clarity and you finally accept and embrace that fact: holy shit, there is no immortal software!

Silicon is sand

... and we're in the mandala business, baby.

I advocate that you write every copy to be thrown away. Every single one. I'm not kidding.

Maybe it'll be good enough (read adequacy, not perfection) that you never end up needing to replace your code in practice. Maybe you'll replace it every couple years as your traffic scales. But the only sure thing in life is that your code will have an expiration date, and every choice you make in acknowledgement of that mortality will make your life better.

People are often hesitant to throw out working code because it represents years of accumulated knowledge in real-world use. You'd have to be a fool to waste that knowledge, right? Okay. Do your comments actually instruct the reader about these lessons? Does secondary documentation explain why decisions were made, not just what those decisions were? Are you linking to an issue tracker (that's still accessible to your team)? If you're not answering yes to these type of questions, you have no knowledge in your code. It is a black hole that consumed and irreparably transformed knowledge for ten years. It is one of the worst liabilities you could possibly have. Don't be proud of that ship! You'll have nowhere to go when it sinks, and you'll go down with it.

When you write code with the future rewriter - not merely maintainer - in mind, you'll find it doesn't need to be replaced as often. That sounds ironic, and it is, but it's also true. Your code will be educational enough for onboarding new people (who would rewrite what they don't understand anyways). It will document its own assumptions (so you can tell when you need a full rewrite, or just something partial that feels more like a modification). It will provide a more useful guiding light for component size than any "do one thing well" handwave. And when the day finally comes, when a rewrite is truly necessary, you'll have all the knowledge you need to do it. In the meantime, you've given yourself permission to shit out something sloppy that might never need replacing, but will teach you a lot about the problem domain.

This is independent of things like test suite methodology, but it does provide a useful seive for thinking about which tests you do and don't want. The right tests will improve your mobility! The wrong tests will set your feet in cement. "Does this make a rewrite easier?" is a very good, very concrete heuristic for telling the two apart.

Sorry for long-posting, btw. I used this space to work through some hazy ideas and sharpen them for myself, particularly because I'm looking at getting into language design and implementation in the near future. Maybe at some future date, I'll rewrite it shorter and clearer.

TL,DR:

Every LOC you write will probably eventually be disposed or replaced. Optimize for that, and achieve Zen.

Hi again! It’s time for the Heartbreak Area! This place is so very sad, but I suppose that is the point! Even if I don’t really get why it exists! But oh well!

The purpose of this area is to create mean and upsetting scenarios to put your friendship to test. You have to remain friendly no matter what, although you are allowed to be mean to bad guys! Because sometimes we have to stand up to them in order to be good friends!

I often cry in this area… But my friendship is strong and I am able to win!

I believe some of the current tests include a highschool test and an… office test? I don’t know much about them, but they sound fun!

You might have notice the cardboard boxes, unfortunately we are having a bit of a metal crisis: we are running out of it. Metal is very necessary for us, it’s what this whole is made out of, it’s what WE are made out of! The very clever programs are looking for solutions, so don’t worry, we will be okay! But yes, this is why they had to rely on cardboard boxes in this test area. But the emulation software usually helps in making the place look nicer! Yay!

There is only one more problem… The Nemesis Trio. A trio of programs that hate friendship and try to mock it and fight against it! Why would they do that?! I don’t understand! Why would someone not want something nice? Friendship is nice! I have received many insults from them, it makes me sad… The sword-fighter program is at least a bit nice to me, I think she used to be a very kind testprogram, I wonder what happened… The little hugprogram and the mean lady are rude all the time, so I don’t like talking to them… Does that make ME mean?! Oh no! Forget what I said, I’ll try to be even more kinder to them!

Anyway, friend, I hope you’re ready for the next area, it’s one of my favorites! The Love Area! See you there!

Error

Summary: A short account of how Nines deviated.

A/N: My first Nines fic! Hopefully I did a good enough job at writing him in character :’]

Ruthless. Unwavering. Invulnerable. These were things RK900 was designed to be. He was designed to complete a job, and a lot of money was poured into making sure there was no room for error in his programming when it came to doing said job.

A lot of money poured into making sure he wasn’t like him. His predecessor. The ever present thorn in his side.

The weight of the pressure was unbearable, a prototype designed and produced to replace a faulty prototype. Not that he felt it, though. He didn’t feel.

Which was why he found himself having to run constant diagnostics as of late. His systems were going haywire. “Hot under the collar,” was never a phrase he understood, and definitely not something expected to experience himself. Yet here he was, hotter than hell under the collar. And everywhere else. To the point, in fact, that he had to, on top of his diagnostics (which were coming back normal somehow), constantly adjust his clothing. He was about a day away from making a trip to Cyberlife Tower for them to check for malfunctions in his hardware when a piece of information revealed itself to him, an unraveling pattern: these symptoms only occurring on days during which he encountered you.

So the solution was obvious, and refreshingly simple, like finally receiving a glass of water on a hot summer day… Or so he assumed. All he had to do was stop encountering you. At least, he had thought it would be that simple.

He was moderately prepared for seeing you against his will. After all, you did work for the same department he was currently positioned at. Every brief encounter was accompanied by the same symptoms, the heat, the warnings flashing in his visual field, the looping and breaking thought patterns. As long as he kept his distance and kept the encounters short, he was able to mitigate these symptoms. What he was not prepared for in the slightest was being assigned to a case alongside you.

Once again, his systems felt less than fully operational. At simply the proposition of this task, his processing unit was going a mile a minute. This was simply not logical. You were not a lieutenant, you were not even a deputy. You were still in the academy! There was no reason he should be on a case alone with you. If you were to be on a case, it should have been with Lieutenant Anderson. This was simply not logical! The line repeated in his mind like a bug, a virus. You were infecting his software.

Fowler’s instructions were simple: follow her orders, so as to allow her to learn, but do not allow her to get hurt. For a military grade android equipped with deadly weapons, this task should be simple. This was your first mission without Lieutenant Anderson. He would be there to oversee the process and make sure the mission doesn’t go awry to provide you experience without a Lieutenant looking over your shoulder, to make sure you were ready for the field. This thought, however, made him feel like he had butterflies— no, cicadas— clamoring around in his plastic and metal chassis. He ran a hand through his hair, pausing midway through in his confusion. He smoothed his hair back into place, unable to place what these physical reactions were, or how they were happening.

💙

The mission itself was unbearable. The two of you were tracking down a missing android, of course. The same monotonous task the DPD had been plaguing its workers with for nearly 6 months at this point. The case didn’t seem particularly dangerous; the murder it had committed only involved blunt-force trauma, so potentially accidental. Nines considered it immensely helpful that the case was so lack luster, at least it gave him more mental space to deal with the aggravations that came along with being around you. The uncomfortable reality was that he still wasn’t sure how this was happening, and yet… He no longer considered going to Cyberlife about it an option, instead opting for a more secretive route. Although he’d never admit it to himself, he didn’t entirely want these feelings to go away. The symptoms were annoying, sure. Overheating was… Less than optimal. But there was something else that accompanied these feelings. Like an instinctive feeling, which was exhilarating for him. Something that existed outside of the zeroes and ones, outside of mechanics and the software. It was small, and it was technically a bug, a glitch, but it was real. He didn’t want Cyberlife to take that away.

As RK900, or “Nines” as you insist upon calling him, accompanied you around this seemingly abandoned house, you busied yourself with asking him trivial, meaningless questions. And he was desperate for you to keep asking them.

“Why did they give Connor a name and not you?”

“RK800 deviated because they allowed him to tread too far into human territory. I suppose they did not want to take the risk with me.”

His non-existent stomach did a flip as he watched your eyebrows furrow in response.

“But you’re sentient. You can think. You’re self aware. That’s mean for them to give Connor a name and not you.”

“It has never made a difference to me, I assure you.”

“I’ll call you Nines for now. But I intend to give you a real name, okay?”

RK900 felt hot again, even more so than before. His face felt hot. He wasn’t sure what to say.

“If that is what you want. I will allow you to call me whatever you choose.” He wasn’t sure why this was the case, but he knew it was. He would do anything she asked of him. Anything. And he had not a single clue as to why.

As the two of you made your way up the stairs, Nines kept a hand on his holster, ready for anything that could be in store. Just as he suspected, there was a loud clamor from one of the rooms as the two of you reached the top of the stairs. Just as he takes his gun out of its holster, you speak.

“Stay here, Nines! I mean it!”

He wasn’t sure what your aim here was. Strategically, this decision was the least sound. If he were to get hurt, Cyberlife could either repair him or send a replacement. If you got hurt…

Fowler’s instructions echoed in his mind. Follow her orders, don’t allow her to get hurt. In this instance, the set of instructions was contradictory. He also had a secondary set of instructions: yours, telling him to stay put. His brain was rapidly running reconstructions, none of them ending well. As took a step forward, something in his coding stopped him. He heard another loud clamor from the room you had disappeared into, sending his systems into a frenzy. He fought against his coding, ignoring every single warning and reminder his mechanical brain was firing at him. Suddenly, he was able to step forward, running into the room you were in, gun drawn and aimed.

He didn’t hesitate, he didn’t have time to. He saw the deviant, and fired with lethal precision. As the deviant fell to the floor, he turned to you. You lay on the floor, blood oozing from a gash on your forehead. Seeing a broken wooden beam on the floor next to you, he quickly reconstructs the scene. The deviant was trying to escape as you entered the room. He must have been hiding when the two of you were coming up the stairs, and whatever was containing him broke. As you entered the room, he tried to throw the beam at you as a diversion. RK900– Nines— had arrived just in time to catch him just in time, before he was able to make it out the window.

Nines kneels down next to you, feeling yet another new emotion: panic. As he examines your wound, he exhales in exasperation. “Why would you do that?! Why would you not send me in first?! You are not replaceable, I am!” You look at him, slightly dizzy as your head pounds. Your voice comes our groggily. “No, you’re not. They could send a new model, but it wouldn’t be you.” Anger flares in Nines as he looks down at you. “This was ridiculous. If all he had was a piece of wood, it would have done nothing to me. Nothing!” You smile, groggily. “We didn’t know what he would have. Plus, you would have killed him. I was trying to get him out of here alive. Now can you help me up?”

Nines sighs again as he helps you up. “This was idiotic, detective.” You laugh, feeling yourself being practically dragged off the floor. “I’m going to make it. Looks like he’s not, though.” Nines says nothing, walking close behind you to ensure your stability as you exit the scene. He continues to say nothing. In the car, at the station, not a word.

As you gather your things, preparing to go home, you wander over to Nines’ desk, standing next to him as you smile down at him. “You know, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say you were scared back there,” you tease, smirking at him. Nines doesn’t look at you, keeping his eyes stubbornly locked on the screen in front of him. “You’d be wrong, detective. I do not feel anything, as I am not programmed to.” As the words leave his lips, you both know that it’s a lie. But you don’t say anything. And neither does he.

As you leave the bull pen, RK900 clenches his fists. A military grade android, a weapon, programmed to never, EVER feel anything remotely similar to emotion, afraid. Going against his coding. There was only one thing that could mean: he had become what he was built to destroy. He had become like him.

Murder Drones: Glowing Future AU

2. Кукла.exe

TW: Suicidal Actions. Reader Discretion is advised

It's 5 am. I wake up to a ding. I think I'm the only one that heard it, since the rest are sleeping. I see a notification on my screen.

File Download Ended

██████████████

Open File | Close Notification

I try to press the second button to go into my files folder and delete this shit.

It won't close. I keep choosing it but it won't close.

"The fuck..?" I whisper quietly. "OH F-" I almost yell when I see that somehow there was chosen the Open File option.

⚠︎ Warning! Virus detected ⚠︎

⚠︎ Предупреждение! Обнаружен вирус ⚠︎

I get a warning. My right eye gets all blurry and everything on the right gets translated to Russian.

"Oh sh-shit..." I mumble, slightly glitching. "I fucked up big t-time..."

I instantly move from my bed to my laptop and boot it up to search for an antivirus.

I hear N move. I turn, only to see that he just made himself comfier. How can they even sleep upside down???

I start searching for an antivirus after I put in my password.

"Here you are-are..." I whisper. I download several on my laptop, and I get a cable to transfer them to me.

I connect the cable to my ear and to my device, getting ready to move the files, but my plans aren't happening-

"Привет, Узи. Я вижу, ты пытаешься избавиться от меня. Жаль, что этого НИКОГДА НЕ ПРОИЗОЙДЕТ. / 𝙷𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚘 𝚄𝚣𝚒. 𝙸 𝚜𝚎𝚎 𝚢𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚝𝚛𝚢𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚝𝚘 𝚐𝚎𝚝 𝚛𝚒𝚍 𝚘𝚏 𝚖𝚎. 𝚃𝚘𝚘 𝚋𝚊𝚍 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚆𝙸𝙻𝙻 𝙽𝙴𝚅𝙴𝚁 𝙷𝙰𝙿𝙿𝙴𝙽." A message appears on the screen of the laptop.

"Shit... I virused the-the fucking laptop. Robo-Jesus I'm an idi-idiot." I rumble as quiet as I can.

// Note from Uzi one hour later: "I underes-estimated the situation. I didn't fuck up big time. It's much, MUCH wo-worse.

I take out the cable and try to find a solution.

"Ughhh Uzi, the same w-way you fucked it up you should unfuck it u-up, come on!" I keep telling myself.

|

"You Should-" Cyn starts talking. Loud.

|

"CYN!" I yell. "Gosh... Q-quiet..." I add whispering. But the bad was already done.

V wakes up, and gets off from her upside down position.

"Good morning to you too Uzi, why you up so early?" She asks me tired.

|

"... V? I f-fcked up..." I mumble, while resetting my laptop to the fabric software.

|

"Uzi, the fuck you did, you never say that you fucked up. And what's with the glitched voice?" She asks me slightly worried.

|

"... V-virus." I respond.

|

"A virus? You'll find a way out, don't worry." She responds more relaxed.

I turn towards her to say something, but I decide to not do so. V is horrified.

"WHAT THE..? YOU DID FUCK UP!" She yells scared and loudly. The other two drones wake up.

|

"Th-thanks V." I tell her sarcastically.

N is the first one to get down from him sleeping pose.

"Good morning everyone!" He says without looking at me. "Oh, you were already awa-..." He adds, but he isn't finishing his sentence.

|

"ROBO-GOD, WHAT'S TH-THE FUCKING PROBLEM, HOW B-BAD IS THIS VIRUS!?" I yell annoyed. "Actually I'll see-see myself." I rumble, and go to N's face to see my reflection in his screen.

"... SH-SHIT!" I yell the next second. My right eye is in a gradient red, instead of yellow. Everything makes sense now...

|

"Bitch shut the fuck up I'm trying to sleep!" J says, pulling her wings over her face. She does not understand the gravity of the situation.

"Guys... Please g-get out this virus is so much-ch more dangerous GET OU-OUT!" I yell worried at them, and I run out the door.

N says something confused, but I don't listen to him.

"Hey Uzi, is everything okay-" Dad asks me when he sees me running. I don't respond, and I destroy the door to out house to run on the bunker's hallway.

I get my wings out and start flying to the exit of the building.

I get there and stop. "Why Are You, Running." Cyn asks me.

|

"C-cyn... I do not have t-time to explain." I tell her.

I go out the already open door, and start flying.

I start flying somewhere far from my friends.

Somewhere where they'll be safe.

𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂

I am walking in circles in the old church.

I look at where Doll's body was.

I remember when she just collapsed.

Her last words

"дать отпор"

Maybe I could find more about Yeva.

Maybe I'll know what to do.

"Робот-бог, просто заткнись, я просто пытаюсь жить, господи! / 𝚛𝚘𝚋𝚘-𝚐𝚘𝚍, 𝚓𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚜𝚑𝚞𝚝 𝚞𝚙, 𝙸'𝚖 𝚓𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚝𝚛𝚢𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚝𝚘 𝚕𝚒𝚟𝚎, 𝚓𝚎𝚎𝚣!" I suddenly hear.

|

"What Is She, Doing Here?" Cyn asks.

At this point, this is normal.

"D-doll, what are you doing in m-m-my head." I say emotionlessly. I got enough of this shit.

|

"О, вирус действительно подействовал на тебя. Как кто-то вроде ТЫ спас этот чертов мир? / 𝙾𝚑, 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚟𝚒𝚛𝚞𝚜 𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝚍𝚒𝚍 𝚊 𝚗𝚞𝚖𝚋𝚎𝚛 𝚘𝚗 𝚢𝚘𝚞. 𝙷𝚘𝚠 𝚍𝚒𝚍 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚘𝚗𝚎 𝚕𝚒𝚔𝚎 𝚈𝙾𝚄 𝚜𝚊𝚟𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚕𝚍?" I hear her voice in my head.

I don't say anything. I keep walking in circles.

My phone starts ringing. It's V's number

I pick up. "N? Wh-why are you call-calling?" I ask hearing N's voice.

|

"Uzi? UZI? What happened??? Why did you go? Where are you? Are you safe?" He's asking me panicked. I put on a sad smile.

|

"I'm trying to-to protect y-you. Don't w-worry about me." I respond. "B-bye." I say, and then I close.

"Ты действительно встречаешься с проклятым убийцей? А я думал, у тебя есть стандарты. / 𝚈𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚊𝚌𝚝𝚞𝚊𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝙳𝙰𝚃𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝚊 𝚐𝚘𝚍𝚍𝚊𝚖𝚗 𝚖𝚞𝚛𝚍𝚎𝚛𝚎𝚛? 𝙰𝚗𝚍 𝙸 𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚐𝚑𝚝 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚑𝚊𝚍 𝚜𝚝𝚊𝚗𝚍𝚊𝚛𝚍𝚜." Doll says.

"Th-that's why I am not with th-them right now." I mumble. "Can't you g-go away?" I add tired. I can't do this today.

|

"И потерять возможное тело? Я очень надеюсь, что твое тело не перегреется, но примерно через час я буду КОНТРОЛИРОВАТЬ. / 𝙰𝚗𝚍 𝚕𝚘𝚜𝚎 𝚊 𝚙𝚘𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚋𝚕𝚎 𝚋𝚘𝚍𝚢? 𝙸 𝚍𝚘 𝚜𝚞𝚛𝚎 𝚑𝚘𝚙𝚎 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚋𝚘𝚍𝚢 𝚠𝚘𝚗'𝚝 𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚑𝚎𝚊𝚝, 𝚋𝚞𝚝 𝚒𝚗 𝚊𝚋𝚘𝚞𝚝 𝚊𝚗 𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝙸'𝚕𝚕 𝚋𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚘𝚗𝚎 𝚒𝚗 𝙲𝙾𝙽𝚃𝚁𝙾𝙻." She responds.

|

"If I-i go somewhere wh-where nobo-nobody's going to find me, and die-die, will you be able to get to anyone el-else?" I ask her, getting worried.

|

"Э-э... Нет? О, Робо-Бог, я выбрал не тот дрон. Иди на хуй. / 𝚄𝚑𝚑... 𝙽𝚘? 𝙾𝚑 𝚁𝚘𝚋𝚘-𝙶𝚘𝚍 𝙸 𝚌𝚑𝚘𝚜𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚠𝚛𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝚍𝚛𝚘𝚗𝚎. 𝙶𝚘 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚏." She says annoyed.

𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂~𖥂

I am sitting on the enge of the hole in the middle of the church.

I've been debating if I should really do it or get with it for the past 20 minutes.

"Тик-так, тик-так, часы тикают! / T𝚒𝚌𝚔-𝚝𝚘𝚌𝚔, 𝚝𝚒𝚌𝚔-𝚝𝚘𝚌𝚔, 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚌𝚕𝚘𝚌𝚔 𝚒𝚜 𝚝𝚒𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐!" Doll says, on an amused voice.

I take out my phone and decide to talk for the last time with... Everyone I guess..

I decide to call V, since she's most of the time with the other two drones, and because N doesn't have a phone yet.

"THE FUCK YOU WENT????" Is the first this I hear when V picks up. I laugh sadly.

|

"Hi!... How-how's N..?" I ask her. "I-is N there..?"

|

"He's outside the bunker, searching for you. Where did you go, is everything alright??" V asks me worried.

|

"What..? Fu-fuck..." I say, avoiding her question. "Th-then... Tell him I lo-lo-loved him..." I mumble.

|

"Uzi, what are you doing..? UZI DON'T YOU DARE. DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE!" V yells very worried at me. I think mom heard her, since she appears in the image.

|

"... H-hi mom... I gu-guess we part ways ag-again..." I tell her.

|

"UZI, GET YOUR ASS BACK HOME WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO????" She asks me. Worried like everyone else.

|

"I FU-FUCKED UP, ALRIGHT-RIGHT??" I yell, bursting in tears. "I DO-DON'T WANT TO KILL ANY OF-OF MY FRIENDS!"

Mom is speechless.

"... Это неловко. / ... 𝚃𝚑𝚒𝚜 𝚒𝚜 𝚎𝚖𝚋𝚊𝚛𝚛𝚊𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚗𝚐." I hear. Doll is laughing at me.

"Gu-guys.... Just tell N that I lo-loved him very m-much. I love you-ou guys too!..." I mumble, hanging up.

"Ты собираешься прыгнуть сейчас? / 𝚈𝚘𝚞 𝚐𝚘𝚗𝚗𝚊 𝚓𝚞𝚖𝚙 𝚗𝚘𝚠?" Doll asks me nonchalantly.

|

"Uzi, Do Not, Do That. I Do Not Want, To Die." Cyn tells me. I ignore her.

Who programmed us to be able to cry?

I shouldn't be crying. But I am. I mean, I will never see anyone again... N, mom, even dad...

I get up, wipe my tears, and look at the void in front of me.

"B-bye world!" I say smiling. But I'm not happy. I'm anything but happy.

And I jump.

Ready-Made Banks: A Fast-Track Solution for Financial Entrepreneurs

In the ever-evolving financial sector, setting up a new bank from scratch can be a complex, time-consuming, and heavily regulated process. This is where ready made banks offer a strategic advantage. Acquiring a pre-established banking institution with the necessary licenses in place allows financial entrepreneurs to bypass lengthy approval procedures and start operations quickly. In this article, we explore the benefits, processes, and considerations of purchasing a ready-made bank.

What Are Ready-Made Banks?

Ready-made banks, also known as shelf banks, are pre-licensed financial institutions that are available for sale. These banks have already been incorporated, undergone regulatory approvals, and in some cases, have an operational history. Investors and financial service providers can acquire these institutions to accelerate their entry into the banking industry.

Benefits of Acquiring a Ready-Made Bank

Time Efficiency – One of the most significant advantages of purchasing a ready-made bank is the time saved. Establishing a new bank requires extensive regulatory approvals, which can take years. A pre-established bank allows buyers to commence operations almost immediately.

Regulatory Compliance – Ready-made banks typically already comply with financial regulations and have obtained the necessary banking licenses. This reduces the burden of going through rigorous application procedures.

Established Reputation – A bank with an operational history may already have established relationships with regulatory bodies, financial institutions, and clients, providing an easier path to business development.

Access to Banking Infrastructure – Many ready-made banks come with existing banking infrastructure, including financial software, payment processing systems, and client portfolios, enabling seamless transitions.

Global Business Expansion – Investors looking to expand their financial services globally can benefit from acquiring a licensed bank in a strategic jurisdiction.

Considerations Before Buying a Ready-Made Bank

Jurisdiction & Regulations – Different countries have varying regulatory requirements. Buyers should assess the jurisdiction to ensure it aligns with their business goals and legal considerations.

Due Diligence – Conducting thorough due diligence is essential to verify the financial health, compliance status, and potential liabilities of the bank before purchase.

Operational Readiness – Some ready-made banks may be dormant or inactive. Investors should evaluate the bank’s readiness for immediate operations.

Cost Factors – Acquiring a ready-made bank involves substantial investment. Buyers should consider initial costs, operational expenses, and any additional licensing or compliance fees.

Regulatory Approvals for Ownership Transfer – Although a ready-made bank is pre-licensed, regulatory authorities often require approvals for changes in ownership, which should be factored into the timeline.

How to Acquire a Ready-Made Bank

Identify the Right Bank – Research available banks for sale in preferred jurisdictions that match your business objectives.

Engage Financial and Legal Experts – Work with professionals who specialize in banking acquisitions to navigate legal and regulatory complexities.

Due Diligence & Negotiation – Assess the bank’s history, financials, and compliance status before finalizing the purchase.

Regulatory Approval Process – Submit necessary documentation and seek regulatory consent for ownership transfer.

Operational Launch – Once approvals are secured, the new owners can rebrand, implement business strategies, and commence full-scale operations.

Conclusion

Acquiring a ready-made bank is a strategic move for financial entrepreneurs looking to enter the banking industry swiftly. With pre-existing licenses, compliance frameworks, and operational structures, these institutions offer a fast-track solution to financial success. However, due diligence, regulatory compliance, and strategic planning are crucial to ensuring a smooth transition and sustainable operations. Whether for global expansion or niche financial services, a ready-made bank provides a unique opportunity to accelerate growth in the financial sector.

Sentinel-2C operators complete final rehearsals

A quiet atmosphere pervades ESOC's Main Control Room. The operations team is in the process of placing a satellite into orbit. We are one minute away from passing over one ground station and the tension is rising as we eagerly wait to receive the first telemetry from the satellite.

Then, suddenly, an alarm is triggered, the light changes color and crackling sounds can be heard. A fire has broken out in the room. The evacuation is ordered. The control room must be abandoned, and the satellite operations relocated to an adjoining room.

This was just a simulation of what could happen during a satellite's first and most critical moments in space. To ensure a smooth start to operations, the control team must consider every possible scenario, whether it happens in space or on the ground—such as a fire alarm.

This summer, as the launch of the Copernicus Sentinel-2C satellite approaches, the control team located at ESOC, ESA's operations center in Germany, has been performing a crucial phase of the launch preparation, reviewing and revising the satellite's and ground segment's plans and procedures to guarantee the success of the mission.

This "team of teams" effort involved more than 40 engineers and scientists—working on the ground segment, flight dynamics, software and networks—all ready to assume control of the satellite following lift off.

After weeks and weeks of simulations, the team has completed this phase and is now fully prepared for the launch and deployment of the European Commission's latest Earth observation mission, to be lifted into orbit by a Vega rocket from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana on 4 September at 03:50 CEST.

"This is not the first Sentinel mission we operate here at ESOC. Our experience has helped us standardize our approach so that we are able to test ourselves on the widest range of anomalies while still facing the most challenging situations," says Franco Marchese, Flight Operations Director for Sentinel-2C.

"One of our main challenges has been the knowledge transfer to the partially new team, as the previous models of Sentinel-2 were launched more than seven years ago," says Pete Collins, Deputy Flight Operations Director for Sentinel-2C.

"Our team has been flying Sentinel satellites and performing routine operations, including the A and B models of Sentinel-2, but putting a spacecraft into orbit is always a complex phase with its own unique challenges. We have prepared very well and have achieved this in a relatively short time."

'Like throwing monsters at the operators'

From a room in the basement, the true conductors of the simulation campaign, the simulation officers lead by aerospace engineer Gustavo Bardo Carvalho, are running the show and they always have more than one string to their bow.

"The role of this exercise is to test the team's capabilities to detect problems, adapt their timeline and, more generally, adapt to the scenario under stress and time pressure," explains Gustavo. "It feels like setting up a role-playing game. We confront the team with 'monsters'—in this case, anomalies of minor or major magnitude—and let them come up with solutions, think outside the box, have creative ideas, and learn from their mistakes."

From the simulations room, where flight data is simulated and fed to the control room, Gustavo and his team have been challenging the Sentinel-2C control team with an exhaustive list of issues to solve, from errors injected in the data, to the loss of ground stations, absence of team members (simulated sickness), and instrument and transmission failures.

Some are common and anticipated, others require the mission control team to brainstorm and exercise the communication between many multidisciplinary teams, such as the flight control team, industry partners, flight dynamics, the ESA space debris office, mission control system software and the ground stations.

"We made sure to not necessarily give a clear solution. Just like in real life, sometimes the best response is just to try to avoid the worst consequences, and we always remind them that reality can be much nastier than any simulation we may invent."

Some exceptional scenarios were also included to force the team to adapt without their usual equipment and deviate totally from the nominal timeline, such as space debris hazards, disruptions resulting from the solar wind or the evacuation of the control room.

"Recently, we simulated a space debris collision alert which required the team to make the satellite ready to engage in a collision avoidance maneuver. This meant skipping the usual steps and commissioning the satellite as early as possible."

On top of testing their technical knowledge, the simulation campaign plays a role in building the team.

"There are many events that can harm the team spirit: from people being sick to managers being rude or non-cooperative. We tried to simulate these moments to test the nerves of the team and make them more resilient."

Dress rehearsal

Lastly, teams at ESOC worked with the joint ESA, Arianespace and industry launch team in Kourou to complete the comprehensive final simulation of the countdown and launch sequence.

During the rehearsal, the mission control team received live signals from the satellite via an umbilical connection that will be disconnected shortly before launch. With this last step completed, the mission control team is now ready to launch the satellite.
