Re: in what part of reign of steel map do you live now?
No, it isn't part of RoS. Charles Stross is a moderately well-known professional SF writer. That story is early work, available for free on his website. It describes cross-world agents discovering that an instance of Earth is about to have a runaway AI outbreak.

Re: in what part of reign of steel map do you live now?
Zone Washington, currently at a campground just outside of the DC beltway, close enough to Andrews AFB that we saw four F-15s darting around in the sky yesterday. During a normal workday I'm slightly closer to the capital, and when I'm at home the hq for the NSA is about a 10 minute drive from my front door. Sadly, I don't own a copy, but that would be, I assume, all smouldering craters and rubble in the Reign of Steel world-line. Hmmm... how much is that pdf? Maybe that will be the next purchase for my GURPS machine!

Currently Zone Washington, but in my child hood I lived in Zones Tel Aviv, Paris, and Manila. And before my divorce I lived in Zone Denver.

Re: in what part of reign of steel map do you live now?
for most of you that live or lived in zone Washington...that is also the place were the hostile sentient AI Archos-R14(from Robopocalypse novel in sell on June 7)was created and woke up(for the 14 time)and later manipulate a drill crew of workers to built a bunker for itself somewhere in Alaska.
so, this Archos is sharing its territory with Vancouver zonemind(Alaska belongs to this AI zone, right?), he he.

Re: in what part of reign of steel map do you live now?
I live in an abandoned hotel near the old Google headquarters. A psychic lives across the street; apparently she has some power to make herself and the humans around her Invisible to Machines, or maybe make the bots think the humans are just funny-looking bots. Most of the current residents are refugees from Zone Mexico. Every morning they line up along El Camino Real hoping for day labor. They come back from their jobs, usually.
Come to think of it, things really haven't changed that much here. |

On the border between the Denver and Washington AIs, on the Denver side but I'd move the couple of miles east under those circumstances.
