5HC : Unbound Simulator

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

My own theories on the significance of M. Million
being an unbound simulator are probably idiosyncratic.

Playfully I will suggest the M. stands for M. Million,
making his full name Million Million Million etc.

This distinguishes him from a finite or bound
simulator.
Given infinite processing capacity could a machine
simulate humanity? It has been observed elsewhere thet
M. Million seems the most humane member of the
household...

Also pure word association makes me think of
Prometheus.

Viewing 5HOC as a whodunnit, or more precisely a
whodunwhat, M Million should not be disregarded as a
suspect but I personally believe him innocent of
murder.

Some aspects of this character (M. M.) are reminiscent
of Ossipago
