Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[Shannon]

Hey Shannon.

I will keep this short because I already noticed you had to waste a lot of time replying to a lot of the other comments made.

I only have 2 questions:

(1) If you get the Fear removal module working will that module itself be able to be a standalone sub later on? Like say the new OF 5.5G (or perhaps OF 6G if you wait that long).

Absolutely. I will probably make OF and OGSF out of it, as specific focii, but it is going to be in the skeleton script as a standard part of EVERY program.

(2) If you were to want to put the fear removal module in 3.3 instead of waiting til 3.4, would it put a significant amount of time on the wait for 3.3?

I have to make sure it's safe before I can release it. It's in B17, and I don't know when that will be finished, or how long it will take to test. Things are starting to go a little faster now than I can keep up with in so many directions for making plans out very far, so we will see what happens. But I want to make sure it is safe to release before I do.

I ask the last one because just like when you said about putting key 2 in 3.3 untested, I wouldn't mind waiting for 3.3 if the fear removal module is placed in it. Honestly, part of it is I'm just so annoyed with the creative ways my subconscious has found to not execute the sub. The notable ones being redefining terms/Reversal Resistance on 3.1, and then artificially negating all attraction on 3.2. I'm assuming that if you removed all the fear response then it would stop finding more ways to not execute? I would be more than willing to have to wait on 3.3 if it would just end this merry go around of finding more holes to have to plug up (Mind you not blaming you for that, I'm blaming us for you having to do all that in the first place).

Either way, Hope I didn't waste all your time with those questions.

In theory, the fear removal will end all resistance in one fell swoop. I have had theories like that before, and you see where we are. I'll believe it when I see it.

That said, this time there are some significant differences, and that gives me some genuine hope that we are really at the end of developing this stuff to overcome fear.

It is not a waste of my time to answer the questions of my customers, provided their questions haven't been asked more than a few times already and they're not ridiculous. I don't mind that at all. That is simply part of the job.

Do you suppose, though, that allowing assertions that are false and based in refusal to see things as they really are, or willful ignorance, or a desire to stir up shit, is a good idea without refuting them and correcting them? That's only going to result in more people who simply may not know better starting to believe the same things, which would cause problems for them and us. RisingSon seems to like to make inflammatory posts, at the least, and his last post was a "rant" full of what looks to me like willful ignorance and a desire to simply bash me and stir up shit.

Bashing me isn't going to make things better for anyone. Making posts that are willfully ignorant are not going to help anyone. Stirring up shit isn't going to help anyone. And if I don't refute posts like these, there are plenty of people now and in the future who will come along and believe it, simply because they don't know better. This sort of post is made because someone either has to show off what they "know" or because they just want to spout off ("rant"). Responding to it is important, but it wastes my time to work on subs instead.

None of you are more frustrated with all this than I am, but that sort of thing doesn't help. I am captain of the ship, and the reason you choose to pay what you do for my subs is because you know my subs are better than those made by other people. You also know that I made a promise to keep releasing DMSI for free until it works or I give up on it, and I have lost a hell of a lot of money to that promise, which I keep as a display of my integrity and trustworthiness, and because I absolutely hate breaking promises.

So to those of you who are not happy with what DMSI is doing, help me improve it. Don't make ridiculous posts that try to make me look like I don't know what I'm doing and waste my work time. There's a lot going on behind the scenes that you guys don't know about concerning development of all this stuff, and it will be made public most likely within the next 6 to 12 months. There's a lot more to all this than you know about or understand. I don't care who you are, what you've done or what you think, there's a reason I'm the first and only to have developed subliminals to this degree. It's because I know what I am doing. I may not be perfect, and it may take me some time to get there - but I do know what I'm doing.

And thank you, Darth, for being such a helpful reporter. You and those like you have contributed significantly to my understanding and the development of DMSI.

Thanks Shannon. Also thanks for working on this program for as long as you have.

I did have a question/suggestion if you were open to it. I was wondering if instead of after this current sub of working on UM/OP and DMSI 3.3 round robin like you were thinking, maybe work on UM/OP and Best 17/testing the fear removal module round robin? That way you can see if it really will end this resistance issue and we can have the fear removal module in DMSI 3.3. Also I think you said with the completion of beast 17 you might be able to put Key 2 in there if all goes right. If you are open to that maybe have a poll open to see if everyone would prefer the original plan or perhaps be willing to wait til Beast 17 is done.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, but rest assured, the fear removal module is going to be tested ASAP. I am also using the subs I produce in the interim between the custom and 3.3 to add new technology and/or make improvements to how things are done that will be backported to 3.3. The next program I release is going to have both improvements and new technology, although I am not necessarily going to be explaining it, since I want to see how well it works as it exists currently to know if it needs improvement before inclusion in 3.3.

Also, if Beast 17 were to work out just fine ( with meeting the time requirement you have for it) would this mean you would be able to finally start farming the tech and start making 6G subs? Could it be possible then that 3.4 could possible be in 6G at that point? Granted I realize that you still have that custom that you need to make sure is one of the first 2 6G subs created.

The only way I can start mining the tech from Beast is if, in a formal test, it achieves a very specific goal. I can tell that we are very, very close with B16, if not already there by the informal tests. The reason I can't use informal test results is that the specific circumstances and such required are required to positively identify the success of the program. Otherwise, it may be successful and we might not know it simply because a variable is off which artificially prevents it from being successful; or, it might not really be successful, but because of a chance variable configuration, it appears to be. But once I have it function as necessary, even just once, in formal testing, there can be no doubt that it works as intended. At that point, I am free to start mining it for the technology modules and build the 6G skeleton script in earnest.

I am expecting it to take me 2-4 months to port the technology modules that make up Beast, because I can't just copy and paste. They are designed to interact with one another and other aspects of the script that are not yet in place, and I have to port those aspects of Beast as well. They also need to be translated from the specific goal of Beast to point to whatever the goal of the program is. So whether 3.4 is in 6G or we have to do a 4.0 to take it there, it is very likely that we will have the final version in 6G. But it won't be the first or second 6G program built.

Anyway, just wanted to throw that out there and see if you would be interested if everyone voted on that. I know for me rather just have 3.3 work (without the subconscious finding creative ways once again to undermine that effort) and maybe just 3.4 being the icing on the cake as it were of more added effects to a already pretty much complete program.

I will do what I can. Developing and coordinating all this will definitely not be simple, or easy. But it will get done.

P.S. Out of curiosity, when you farm the tech out of beast 17 (if its the one that meets design spec that is) does that mean your going to have to come up with a acronym for every tech you mind? Just curious as that would seem like, lots and lots of work.

I'm not going to be worrying about giving you a long list of acronyms. It won't mean anything to you, and it will only waste my time at that point. Because, you nailed it. It will be lots and lots of work, with no real value.
