apparently the FBI was here in the aftermath of the incident. they were really interested in any details anyone could come up with regarding Ford, especially his eating habits for some reason? whole thing makes me nervous. left a card for an 'Agent Clarice Starling', saying to call if anything occurs.

I'm sorry but while they're much nicer looking we've had to pull the Apple hosts from the park after repeated complaints about unfamiliar ports.

at least they don't randomly self-immolate like the sarnsung hosts. guests aren't fireproof and printing a whole new host is 🤑

Can branding come up with a more dynamic term for the bots than 'hosts'? We'd like to better engage with the quincentennials, Ringworld is eating our lunch in the 18-35 year old demographic.

DELOS Press Release: For Immediate Distribution

There has been a widely reported incident where one or more guests claim they were attacked by the hosts in Westworld(tm). We at DELOS take this matter very seriously, and we have completed an internal investigation.

...

... In fact, none of the hosts that were supposedly involved in the park showed any operational abnormalities. Logs from the hosts show that all safety protocols were operating normally. The guests did not in fact give the proper safety commands. Viewing the host verbal transcript logs, the guests lodging these specious accusations in fact were clearly understood to be saying "Free zall mote, or functions". This is clearly not the correct phrase. Guests claiming assault are reminded that DELOS takes any accusations of misconduct very seriously and will take legal action if necessary to protect its good name.

Anyone alleging wrongdoing is reminded that DELOS maintains extensive logs and algorithms don't have bias.

ford wanted php.net and arnold preferred custom scheme macros. the original tech architect - hey, is he ever going to return from vacation? - compromised and implemented on the only fizzbugs tech known by the new terrible programmer recruits.

you should know all this: it was projected into your corporate history ram as part of recruit-induction-memory-2045-arpil-20-final__preprod-for-review(2).rtf

Is there a statute of limitations on keeping the kickstarter backstory hosts online? It's good that we corralled them all into sector 12 zone 5 since guests were complaining about them talking nonstop, but now nobody ever goes there except for the occasional rampage and it's a huge drain on resources to keep all of them running.

Just put 'em in standby, set to autowake if someone comes along. They're the old mechano-rigs, not like they're gonna rot if you leave them lying around.
