The point of that episode is that just because these NPCs are artificial and in a sense &#34;not real&#34; doesn&#39;t mean that they matter less. Pomni&amp;co. are assumed to actually matter by virtue of being our protagonists, so having the reveal that they actually are also just as &#34;virtual&#34; as the NPCs now would further solidify that thesis. If they got out that would kinda undermine it because then it would look like they mattered because they&#39;re at least at some point &#34;physical&#34; and therefore the experiences in the circus matter because they are remembered by a &#34;physical human&#34;. 2026-03-23T13:59:40Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsrt9tvz604stnqkd58ya8qn9get47l0ha0cgwrqrm0k08zwtnc25qzyzej9d7fsjrwfu6ug2w9e5gewt46rv9n9jz9xhhxtm8fkydlp6d82vrxqgt In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy4qswufeznyekgzsnullwrnjlpuqkyvntkxc3ydwh6ej0npd97zg9vvx29'>nevent1q…vx29</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>You should have made upgrading forgejo harder (than just having to run literally a single command that just needs the version number) if that&#39;s supposed to need an upgrade party… 2025-10-21T13:58:56Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqv5877hvarhjypyggtxeq0vwclflqmt4l2zkgwsl5n8rksjnc67czyzej9d7fsjrwfu6ug2w9e5gewt46rv9n9jz9xhhxtm8fkydlp6d82uffm90 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8zc95pelfkevff9n8schx3z68jksgle484t834wuv735z9s29u3qm59hmq'>nevent1q…9hmq</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;m unreasonably annoyed that the sentence praising the oxford comma doesn&#39;t use the opportunity to use it (I&#39;m sure it&#39;s intentional to illustrate the point of the post (that I agree with), but still…)… 2025-09-02T14:19:15Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0jl656tl5cthcuj4c4erfw6zpvdmh2vn2v58ffvkpcz0w6nu0n0qzyzej9d7fsjrwfu6ug2w9e5gewt46rv9n9jz9xhhxtm8fkydlp6d82pccfuc I reiterate my fedi-block recommendation for social.xenofem.me and it&#39;s sister instances, most notably:<br/><br/>social.translunar.academy<br/>akkoma.social<br/>arachnid.town<br/><br/>The post triggering this fediblock recommendation is the following, but there are *many* other instances of it already (from many different accounts):<br/><a href="https://social.xenofem.me/notice/ArdA2tIbKpLhdPN3yq">https://social.xenofem.me/notice/ArdA2tIbKpLhdPN3yq</a><br/><br/>My previous fediblock recommendations for this/these instance(s) are here:<br/><a href="https://social.zvavybir.eu/@zvavybir/113647728102578771">https://social.zvavybir.eu/@zvavybir/113647728102578771</a><br/><a href="https://social.zvavybir.eu/@zvavybir/113620346755714035">https://social.zvavybir.eu/@zvavybir/113620346755714035</a><br/><br/>#fediblock 2025-03-15T00:02:41Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyk6qwcj8xuk3v0q9p0xmyngcazt5q3vf97pl37z9gj62tx4q0tkgzyzej9d7fsjrwfu6ug2w9e5gewt46rv9n9jz9xhhxtm8fkydlp6d82ffzfzr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs99n5skeauylmtngzue3atut2vgnm04wu76ex6kusrjw54sm84meq9hc7xy'>nevent1q…c7xy</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I feel you, that sucks so much! 2024-12-18T19:53:38Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsy5mjeurl98mpxn6g0s9jkmllphsshx3jkcalskcl4c0yufch65rqzyzej9d7fsjrwfu6ug2w9e5gewt46rv9n9jz9xhhxtm8fkydlp6d8202xq3a In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdyundqwm8zea0954kscd6snvk829rmdfm7kg05wn2m3ym07utmus68dp96'>nevent1q…dp96</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hossenfelder?
