Gabriael, is that the right file? It looks like random noise to me.

Me too, which I’d expect if Mother Starlight can’t figure it out.

I mean, it could just be a format I don't recognize or something. I'm not omniscient.

Yes, but if you don’t recognize it you can’t convert it to something I can use. I would be quite surprised if most files on this forum were actually 1995-compatible, given that most people sending files presumably invented better files at some point after 1995.

Well, yes. I just thought someone might be able to analyze it statistically or something; plenty of worlds have disciplines along the lines of xenolinguistics or cryptanalysis.

I meant that it was expected that I couldn’t figure anything out, not that I expected nobody to do it. I only listed that I could not as another datapoint.

I can't read the file, either. Encrypted, incompatible formats, copying error, weird language (not translated?), other? Appears as random numbers and letters, no connections or points, two dimensional.

Please be extremely careful when dealing with any kind of infectious threat. Careful beyond careful, far more careful than seems necessary or sane. The reason the D'ni civilization fell was a highly successful bioterrorist attack, a deliberately spread plague. In case anyone was doubting that this sort of thing can destroy your civilization. PLAGUE BAD. NO.

Always careful, so much. Bad people/careless people, conjure virus/bacteria, self replicates, after original gone. Precautions, cleaning, always check things, conjure dissolve clean, always on watch, reminders to children, doctors, restricted food-growth areas, ...,. Yes important, agreement.

>Tyche, Yes. Anyone, good working memory, reason, complex visualization, has ability, conjuration, complexities, self-replicators. Often, destruction, conjuration-based, limited extent <- disappearance, one shard. Bacteria, viruses, original has self-replication soon, dies before disappearance, more dangerous. Very small, precise, complex -> microorganism creation, difficult, uncommon. Danger -> important to have protections, many.
