March 9: you know what they say about drinking and texting

[neveroutwrenched]

i have some questions. for you guys, the crew. us.

mostly about the ingress because i think its bullshit that no one has any idea how to fix it. or how it works. lots of worlds have technology like the ingress. on the greater cosmic scale, in the MULTIVERSE, it's not even all that rare

so

nowait

i mean, anyway. this is a different question. does anyone know why we haven't utilized
a) any of the ingresses (ingress...i?) on any of the planets weve landed on to get home
b) any of the people on those planet because you HAVE to assume someone knows how to work/repair/etcetc

why havent we scrutinized or been given an actual answer for anything that's happened on this ship? creepy skeleton monster? that KILLED PEOPLE. lying to us about caducus-primary. stealing from caducus-primary. dont get me started on the lack of actual consequence to that.

i know its different in everyone's worlds, but where I'm from, being in charge doesnt make you except from responsibility for your actions. or at least it's not supposed to. unless you have

a lot of money or are a celebrity or something

I have to assume that Ingress technology predates the current civilizations here, and was somehow found by this universe's inhabitants, because that's the only logical explanation I can think of to explain why no one seems to know how it really works.

right yeah. that actually sounds likely, but it doesn't help US.

and it doesn't mean that there aren't people here who could figure it out, right?

Well evidently not, since no one has been able to fix it so far.

Much as I credit myself as an engineer of a particularly high caliber, even I haven’t been able to make much sense of the thing. And after what happened on that one planet, I have to admit that I’m reluctant to press our luck by tampering with it any further.
