[things that are tron]

Huh. I don't remember having seen this EVO card on identity discs. Thank you, TRON !~ This raises a bunch of interesting questions!

...first of all, "light discs"?

It also explains the EoL servers with their backless dresses.

Most of the info they store makes sense, but I wonder what "usable energy quotients" means. Personal safe drinks limit? XD

Or maybe a rations tab, although that doesn't fit into the Grid's ~utopia~ thing at this canonpoint.

You're welcome!

Yeah, when I saw it, I immediately thought of the EoL servers!

Which brings up an interesting point, was Zuse specifically hiring obsolete Programs, for whatever reason?

With the "usuable energy quotients", maybe that refers to the maximum amount of energy a Program can draw and store from the Grid? (I do love the drink limit idea, though. XD )

My theory is that the factions felt safer plotting in the bar when the servers had no discs that could be confiscated and also couldn't remember what they were plotting about. (Eckert disapproves.) But that was before I read this card and remembered that Zuse referred to a lot of programs in the club as "primitive functions."

Additionally, the more skilled or modern programs working there had probably been sent to the Games already. :/

That's a good energy idea also! Can't have random programs draining the wells to spite their neighbors. XD

That makes sense! I like your theory, and it totally works with the card, maybe Zuse picks obsolete Programs specifically to make the bar safer for all kinds of dealings?

Yeah true, it was probably getting harder to find anyone at all who could work, since so many Programs were dead or rectified.

Thanks! XD Pfffft, oh gosh, that's a hilarious mental image. XD

<3!

IMHO, I figure 'usable energy quotients' are pretty much the closest the Grid has to a bank account. Every program gets X amount per Y time period based on their needs. Enough to live on, plus a bit extra. You want to blow all your spare available energy on drinks at the EOL, you can or you can save it up to get yourself that spiffy new baton or whatever.

Oooh, I like that!

Neat, I like that!

for the record I, personally, out of character, find this video to be an excellent and cheeky little delight

Clu is,

with a nonzero amount of ANGERY but also smug

"Told you that thing is a killer; he's clearly been deranged by it~~~"

I figured you'd be pleased and he'd be.... himself

hmmm hmmmmm this track definitely reminds me of something....~
