Bushman's bush

@MagmaSlasher I've received more insight that people are theorizing the console took over when the inputs were turned to "Y" going against Kinger's intention, I 100% believe either Bubble or another entity is taking revenge on Caine and pushing Kinger to make a mistake or take over him.

@MarskyMessier If it was someone who wanted Caine dead that was manipulating the terminal, they'd know that Kinger couldn't be convinced to kill him. So it'd have to be an accident he's pushed into. I don't know why they'd tell him that directly, though, it seems counterproductive.

I am not sure if Kinger is listing files from a path or going to that path specifically (you'd use "cd" for that), but we can see something from "/secured/" (a directory) listed with two other directories and more files with user permissions too. It lists 8492 entries. 11/

@AwesumIndustrys Very interesting to read, tysm! I'm only old enough to have known XP/Vista so i'm highly unfamiliar with the Win90s environment, funny to read Windows just used to dump everything together lol. It's so nice they put so much attention to the details.

@MarskyMessier since Win9x predates proper user accounts and folders, so software just dumped shit in the Windows folder, including Windows itself since that’s where it stored the Desktop folder. This was a bad idea and Microsoft rightfully changed it in XP but that was the state of things(2/2)

#TADC EPISODE 8 - THE KINGER PC SCENE ANALYSIS - From a guy that wrestle linux pcs for funsies

@StacyBlankVA Normally the numbers are the size (in bytes) of the files themselves but I'm very intrigued in why they share the same size, that's not very common!

@MarskyMessier I have a question! Do you know if the string of numbers between Wheel and the dates mean anything? Especially with the Paraphernalia Engine, Scratch, and Ragatha all sharing 234512?

Next frame - "grep" is a command to search and index strings of text in a file, generally grep is used for a single file only but here it seems used to search and index files containing "AI-Location". It's then displaying paths leading to /usr and whatever files are used for- 9/

(small note - people are pointing he seems to be fat fingering the keyboard at the end, his inconscistencies late in the work could absolutely be that too! I think it's such a packed scene, so much to say)

-could be options (which I doubt) or gibberish because he's overwhelmed by all of this and he becomes powerless against a console that's ever so threatening and not letting him do anything. He's trying his best, my poor lad! You can see thru the whole scene his visible- 37/

@Pr0blem_Add1ct You can check out more about it here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_(pro… , it was used for AI research too so I 100% believe it's not accidental !

@Pr0blem_Add1ct I tried researching about it (as I had no idea what file type it was at first glance) and could not find anything about a specific ".lisp" file, it's rather a cluster of languages on itself (i had to heavy resume for the thread), so I assume it's moreso a reference to it :D

@Pr0blem_Add1ct Thank you! I love (and hate) linux a lot, so when i saw something referencing it I couldn't help but jump on it and try to explain the best I could! I hope it gets people intrigued on whatever the HELL is going on LOL

@MarskyMessier Thank you so much for this thread!!! Helpful and fun to see linux nerds input on it all!

-the one who woke up and is fighting Kinger in the console, but that's just wild thoughts. Either way there's something fucked up with that theme of doomed duo (og AI name/caine, scratch/kinger, pomni/jax) which would be very interesting to see where it goes!

-weirdos like me to pick apart! I also heavily lean on the 2 AI theory that Caine took over something or isn't the original (Kinger hinting "caine" not being his OG name) and that this other AI woke up and went absolutely rogue. Caine could even be a fake and the real Caine is-
