Adam has indeed acknowledged that the HEV suit uses a UNIX-based OS. |

At some point there was a discussion about this (possibly the blog) which interpreted the "wSrldddddddddd" bit to mean that it doesn't end properly, which is why the d is repeated like that -- in other words, an implicit "no end." |

Lux Aeterna. Translating that (if it is indeed doable, lloks like Latin to me) may give us some more clues as to exactly where and what. |

Lux Aeterna?.... Eternal Light.... is a very special name for a planet, don't you think? Terrapin... You replied before me for only one minute.... |

May I also point out one horrifying cryptic possibility. Someone mentioned earlier that Lux Aeterna can be abbreviated to LA... I think we can all agree that Los Angeles is the last place anyone would want Out Of Time to take place. |

Well, Minerva does say that we're "lucky to see this world", so perhaps it's some kind of perfect world, sort of like the age old concept of heaven. Maybe it's supposed to be some kind of refuge for humanity, another world where we can start fresh, learn from our mistakes, and finally get things right as a species. Or maybe it's a place where we can join Minerva as post-humans / A.I.s / superhumans / whatever-she-is, and live perfect lives as perfect beings. It seems likely to me that humans have been there before (note the truss-beam architecture featured prominently in the above image). But that is best left to . The message seems likely to be something related to Minerva. My theory is still that it's Minerva's identity, cleverly encrypted. But in the end, the logical part of me says that we're reading way too much in to a simple error message. We have to be careful not to make meaning where no meaning was intended, because that doesn't lead anywhere except away from the answers we seek. |
