I'm feeling somewhat benevolent today.
After hearing a combination of your suggestions and complaints, I've decided to share.
You know, health of the community and all that.
For those of you still wildly inept with your tablets, just poke the letters that show up in a different color.
[Attached to this message, (a function not normally available for network posts,) is a link which yields several downloadable applications. Thankfully they're not malware or viruses, but hopefully helpful things, including:
- An app that translates text in images into spoken words. Good for the blind (or the illiterate). As it translates into the universal language of Beacon, it could also be used for deciphering foreign letters. Just snap a photo and you're good to go.
- A drawing app. Not as fancy as photoshop, but you can use your hands to make pretty pictures with a variety of colors and line weights.
- Related: a map app. It comes with a version of the current known map, which can be updated by the community. Shitposting will be promptly corrected. You stop that.
- And finally, a game: sudoku to be specific. Are you good at math and puzzles? Let's hope so, otherwise this will be pretty pointless for you. (This one's for you, Noctis.)
All four apps download together, so you're stuck with them even if you only wanted one. But the file isn't exactly labelled in anything other than random(?) numbers, so I suppose you wouldn't know that anyway.
Have fun, Beacon!]

The plant life: I'm not a botanist so correct me if I'm wrong, but they look like they'd need to photosynthesise to help fuel their day-to-day plant-based activities and they're pretty green. So, how are the plants still alive? Obviously the byproduct is largely irrelevant as we're dead, which just begs further questions about what we're breathing or if we're breathing just based on muscle memory.

The plants here seem to be, as far as I can tell, the same sort you might find on Earth.
They're even green, they have chlorophyll.
How they survive is honestly something against the laws of nature as I'm familiar with them.
But then, I'm not a botanist either.
As for breathing, go ahead and stop and see what happens.
I don't think it's just for show.
