Right. If everyone could privately ping @ship until we figure out who’s supposed to get the thing they didn’t get, we’ll get right to the bottom of things.
Any messages from the Esmeraldan authorities?
@kenv, is there any section to our contract that prevents me from answering Kay?

Sports update: Lukou’s vendor catalog is live and this year’s double-g playoffs are on it. I’m already downloading, but if someone would like to split the cost with me, I would appreciate that.
We’ll figure out details later. But since you’re here, @bryce, the download died at 61%. Restarted. Died again at 61%.
Receiver-side diagnostics are clean. Vendor side, maybe?
Not the package either. My model rates it “high utility per bit.”
The buffet model?
General utility model. It’s grown.
Your “general utility model” has been incessantly pinging Lukou ever since we jumped in. Lukou throttles the whole ship address when a client does that. Kill the model and your download will finish. I assumed one of you would read the transfer log, but here we are.
Why are you reading our transfer log?
It’s the ship’s transfer log. I read all of them. It’s my job.
OK, model’s off and we’re at 84% and climbing! Thank you Pierre! I owe you one!
You don’t. Please don’t.
For the record, Bryce owes you. I was not consulted.
