Lol. No, dude. A computer simulation IS a computer simulation. I'm not gonna argue this anymore, just believe what makes you happy.

I wasn't asking about the properties of the Darkhold. I specifically quoted the relevant portion of your post.

Please tell us what episode any of this is said or even hinted at. Thanks.

Gonna have to disagree with you here. Yes, I get that he doesn't remember the real world, but Daisy straight up tells him "You have people who really care about you...who love you very much" and he's like sorry, bro, gonna stay here in Fakeland with not_a_real_person Hope. Fuck those real...

That would be too creepy. Aida is an actual AI. Every other non-jacked-in-human person in the Framework is just a simulation based on memories. Which is also why I thought it was fucking ridiculous for Mack to choose to stay. Fuck all my responsibilities and loved ones in the real world, I'm...

Yeah. Pretty lame. Shark jumping territory IMO.

Rumors of a reboot are simply another form of control. Vis a vis fear. The most predictable of all human emotions. Ergo end thread.

Log in today if you want a free Venom.

You're forgetting that Elsie discovered that in addition to Teresa using the console for her data smuggling, she found that someone else has been using Arnold's login credentials to make modifications to the park's host. IIRC it was only the older models, because the newer ones no longer use...

He had no choice. He had to bring it, so it could be found in a pile of cow shit 30 years later.

Yeah, the way he said it, it seemed kinda ominous, but doesn't make much sense for it to be. I'm sure the people who work in Behaviour tweak the hosts settings all the time, since, ya know, that's like, their job.

Yeah.

Yeah. She doesn't have it when she stumbles to the campfire, but she wakes up with it in her hand, or at least next to her hand. After that one glimpse, we don't see her with a gun again until they are preparing to rob the soldiers. She has changed clothes and is wearing an empty holster, she...

Allow me to clear up some shit so people can (maybe) stop reinforcing each other's delusions. Ford. Did. Not. Dig. Up. The. Town. In episode 2 Ford talks with the boy and we see the buried church. In episode 4 Ford has his talk with Teresa while having lunch, we see the big machines digging...

No. Again, let's not make shit up. It's actually the second episode, and what she says to William is "Everything is bespoke and exactly your size." Also, William doesn't get the gray shirt there, he picks out some pinkish checkered shirt.

If there are two timelines Clementine would also have to have been around for 30 years. Which would make Delores barely older than both of them.

You're wrong. Watch it again. Edit: Saved you the trouble. You're welcome. Now let's at least stick to only facts and wild theories. No misinformation necessary, lol.

The whole fly bit was just to illustrate to the audience that Delores was no longer bound by her programming. Why would a host bother to wave a fly away unless it was programmed to be annoyed by the fly crawling on its "skin"? I let a lot of this kind of stuff go, because we are dealing with...

Sure. A guest can also get punched in the face, fall wrong and get his skull caved in or break his neck. Which is why they sign a waiver. The point is, the host wasn't going to intentionally kill Logan.

Once you've rendered someone unconscious through either lack of air, or blood to the brain, you still need to deprive their brain of oxygen for a significant amount of time before any brain damage or death occurs. Most people don't know this because most movies and tv make it much shorter. He...

That wasn't fear of torture or death, it was fear of boredom. He's prolly gonna be locked in a cell and unable to fuck any whores until a hero host rides in to save the day.

Other evidence? The only evidence supporting the theory is imagination and supposition.

Exactly.

They don't have to feel it to show it.

There's no reason, if you are designing Westworld hosts, to take the immense amount of time it would take to make a hosts actually experience pain, when it's so much simpler to just program them to react as a human would to physical stimuli.

That being said, I would not condone torture or rape of the same. Not out of any empathy for the machine, but because any human that takes enjoyment from doing that is sick. Just playing a RL game is not the same to me, as long as it's just simulated killing. But, we are gamers, we are used to...

To me, no different than killing an npc in Dark Souls. It's not alive, it's just a simulation of a human.

What's so evil about treating a machine like a machine? They aren't supposed to be sentient. I mean, yeah, with the way AI is portrayed in fiction it's easy to believe that they have human emotions, but they really don't. It's why I have a love/hate with this kind of sci-fi.

Problem is, he doesn't know how to change it. Either Eobard did something, or it's some stupid Time side effect. Not really enjoying this season. They should just change the name of the show to "Emotional Crisis on Infinite Earths."

Music from Westworld Season 1

Enjoyed the second ep as much as the first. Only issue I have is the chic who speaks horrible english. I feel like all her scenes are rather bland and unecessary, or that could just be her acting that feels that way. Just stands out really bad considering how well everyone else is doing.

Yes, but still part of the park. The way the new guy was acting, he'd never seen a host/robot before.

I think it was the two whores who actually had that conversation? Not sure either.

Pretty sure her boobs were cast, and the rest of her just came along.

But Joe and Barry's dad were friends before Barry's mom is murdered. Yet, he never met Iris before (when they were kids) and told her that he only knew Joe from work. Does not compute.

Problem with dealing with non-real tech in science fiction, the tech will do whatever the writers need it to. Also, while they may have a consultant or two, I doubt any of the writers has a serious grasp on the limitations of computer programming. Probably just rely on what they've seen/read in...

Ergo goonie goo goo, mothafucka. ;)

It's because of the era of movies/tv we live in, we all expect twists in everything we watch, so we don't trust the narrative. It's gotten quite annoying. You don't need an omg twist to tell a good story.

Yeah, I don't get this new Iris issue bullshit, everything should be as it was. Is Time punishing Barry for fucking with the past? Bleh. Also, I'm confused. In the alternate timeline, Barry and Iris didn't know each other, and he only knew Joe from work (let's ignore the silly fact that Barry...

Yep. And how Harris knew exactly how much "blood" he could drain without killing the host he was interrogating.
