| Introduction | In the past, xmbrst received a PhD in English language and literature at the University of Michigan. In the present, he lives in Brooklyn with his wife and two children works at a big technology company. In the future, his brain emulation will be housed in a low rent storage facility. He will be disappointed to discover that it is not actually possible to rule the world from this facility, given the low bandwidth provided to its economy sims. But he will be pleased to discover that it *is* possible to have unlimited anime about emulated brains that *do* rule the world piped into his sensory feed for only a few bitcoins a month. |
