swipes: a friendr meme

swipes: a friendr meme

Any new arrival to the city has seen the ad for a free app popping up on their devices, and anyone who's been around for a while probably has a profile and has used it a bit. It's almost universal in the city - Friendr, a friend-finder and/or dating app. If characters choose to install it, they will fill out a short bio and parameters for what they're looking for, upload a snap of themselves, and then proceed to browse for matches. This is a typical swipe-left-or-right type app. The default color scheme can be seen below, but the Friendr app has a wide variety of themes, so feel free to customize with colors and patterns as you see fit, but do not remove the credit line out of respect for the creator of the code.



Friendr

» Age: your character's age

Code to post your character's bio is in the textbox below.


Friendr base code is by photosynthesis.


● Post up a top-level for your character with their Friendr profile and then go around and swipe left or right on everyone else's!
● This meme is for characters already accepted into the game to window shop other characters' Friendrs while they're all gathered conveniently into one place.
● This meme is GAME CANON, so any threads played out in this meme can be carried through into the actual canon of the game.
● Since this meme is game canon, open, and only for characters in the game, threads here can be used for either Activity Points or the monthly Activity Check.

In a way, we all were, Dorian, but no two Altus mages are alike, and I imagine the same could be said for two android built for police work.

You should see our MXs. And most of my models resembled me.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="flashystyle">} (001)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-05 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
I'll need you to clarify what precisely an "MX" is.

As for them resembling you, well, that's one thing. Being you is quite another.
sentiences: (Than society gathers wisdom)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-05 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
They're a different kind of robot. No emotion, no feeling. They don't even have names.

And that's true. I am original.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="vikael">} (069)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-06 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
I believe I've stumbled upon the true difference between and "android" and a "robot" then. All "androids" seem to have distinct personas.

Of course you are, as are we all.
sentiences: (I write for the same reason I breath)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-06 09:34 am (UTC)(link)
It's not that normal. Having personalities to most would be considered an aberration of our programming.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="anabiotic">} (024)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-09 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
You weren't designed to have a personality, then?
sentiences: (Who think they know everything)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-10 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
No, I was explicitly designed to have one. But most robots are not.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="anabiotic">} (061)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-12 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Still, it seems as though most use the term "android" to refer to beings like you, who were designed to have a personality, and "robot" is...more like a golem.
sentiences: (You don't need to predict the future)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-12 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Androids by definition are robots with human appearances. Robots can apply to any number of gadgetry. But I think it's important to know our roots as well.

For all I know, the part that lets me feel can be turned off.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="flashystyle">} (008)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-15 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Well, we humans can have that bit turned off, as well, Dorian. We simply have different switches.
sentiences: (If knowledge can create problems)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-15 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Are we talking about a drinking switch or a dying one?
tevinteraltus: {<user name="anabiotic">} (043)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-20 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, yes, drinking.

You know, I believe it may speak to my experiences that my first thought had been torture.
sentiences: (Science gathers knowledge faster)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-20 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
It does say a lot about you. Concerning things, mostly.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="curled">} (013)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-23 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I've seen...far more torture in my lifetime than I'd ever care to, it's true.
sentiences: (Allow a human being to come to harm)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-23 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry to hear that. No one deserves that.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="anabiotic">} (024)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-23 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I never experienced it directly, and any cultists we've met who performed such things were seen to swiftly.

Though I do find it bothersome there seems to be something similar occurring here.
sentiences: (Tropisms make the ivy twine)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-24 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
I almost lost an arm and a leg, but those are replaceable. Human body parts are less so.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="flashystyle">} (008)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-25 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
Be that as it may, it's far from the point. You are no more replaceable than anyone else.
sentiences: (You don't need to predict the future)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-25 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
I mean I get that.

But not completely because factually, that's not quite true.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="curled">} (017)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-25 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
People are as much a collection of their experiences as anything else, Dorian. By that merit, even an identical construct would not be the same.
sentiences: (You just can't differentiate)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-26 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
I'm quite there are ways to transfer memories onto other vessels.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="curled">} (013)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-27 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine. If you're so fixated on seeing the negative here, I'll not stop you.
sentiences: (If the domination is by an inferior)

[personal profile] sentiences 2018-08-28 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh. Dorian catches on. ]

I don't see it as negative. I see it as a part of myself, to function that way. I'm supposed to put people first. Not myself.
tevinteraltus: {<user name="flashystyle">} (001)

[personal profile] tevinteraltus 2018-08-29 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
But you are a person, Dorian.
