re: posthumanism, sort of spoilers for megaman x, zero, and zx, if anyone cares
and I really appreciate that they show that dynamic throughout the entire megaman series
in the original series, robots are made by humans for specific tasks, and aren't capable of true consciousness
then Dr. Light makes X, the first reploid, and Dr. Cain uses scans of X to make more reploids, which are initially just robots capable of independent thought and true consciousness, but by the time of megaman Zero, reploids have a fully developed place in society (though there's fighting between humans and reploids, they aren't a unified society yet)
and then in ZX the distinction between human and robot has vanished completely
posthumanism, sort of spoilers for megaman x, zero, and zx, if anyone cares
in megaman X and Zero, there are both humans and reploids, which are advanced human-simulant robots
but in ZX, in the 23rd century, there are just humans... except "human" has changed meaning. There are no fully organic people anymore, and there is no distinction between organic and inorganic lifeforms
There's something I just like about that. it's a pleasant thought, that the meaning of "human" can change
oh dear this was a mistake, notifications on this take up 75% of the screen horizontally
apparently there's a megaman battle network 6 randomizer and that's jut, that is not a particularly popular game

@xenon ooh, that works too yes
Our parents (who were visiting for the weekend) left today, so we'll be a bit more around now. Was an enjoyable few days! Went to a symphony performance where they played Grieg's Peer Gynt suite and Borodin's Polovtsian dances, and then we went to visit an archaeological site called Moundville, where ancient Mississippian peoples had a major settlement and built giant rectangular earthen mounds, the purpose of which is not really known
