The Amazing Digital Circus Episode 8 spoiler warning (don't click more if you haven't watched it yet).
So, I compiled some screenshots of the computer terminal, in order... I found some interesting stuff. (My bad about the captions, lol).
This looks to be a Windows 95 operating system. Kinger clicks on the "Characters" file.
The two directories in that folder are "AI" and "CA_NeuralScan [Obsolete]". It's interesting that the neural scans were marked obsolete...
The AI folder is made inaccessible and the neural scans folder becomes "CAINE".
System: KingSolution 2.0
Date: 1996-10-30
Login: kinger
Pass: Queenie123
It looks like the login info and password has been censored to fit the digital circus names.
whoami is a command in the Windows CMD (command prompt), Kinger is ranked as an administrator.
Total: 8492 files in the Digital Circus Mainframe.
3 years from the day Caine was created (October 15th, 1996) is when neural scans were created of the people working on the project (October 15th, 1999). Then, 9 years later (October 15th, 2008), Ragatha's neural scan was made. As the CA_NeuralScans folder was marked obsolete, it may be the case that a bad actor was involved. It's odd that the month and day for every instance is October 15th, is it an intentional pattern or is only the year correct?
Caine's file is a ".lisp" file, LISP is a family of programming languages, the second oldest high-level programming language still in use (released in 1960, the oldest is FORTRAN) and is an abbreviation for "list processing." It was originally made for practical mathematical notation, but quickly became favored in AI research. (SOURCE: Wikipedia, "Lisp (programming language)")
The neural scans for the people are .dat files, these are data files that can store pretty much anything. "wacky-watch" is written in the programming language C.
Kinger is prohibited in his attempts to pause Caine by "57x immersive AI defense system." Does Caine manage it, is it seperate from him?
"ERROR: Cannot inject torment. Torment must be 100% (acid? accid? what)".
Kinger doesn't have root access, whereas Caine does. This makes things significantly more difficult as he is denied access to simpler solutions. Then the timer starts, it advances by 20% every few seconds (that's a lot of pressure).
"Note: Hundreds of all-seeing eyes are watching!" lmao what. Looks like Caine has become aware that Kinger is trying to stop him, so the defense program must be seperate from his active thought process.
The new lines starting with "$" are all from Caine, it appears. "I must hand it to you G[]an[]. your mind was always resourceful." Is that Kinger's censored name?
A directory or file that begins with "." is hidden, it looks like this directory was created as a precautionary measure. Kinger isn't allowed to abort the fallback "WACKYTIME_LOCKOUT" procedure though, did Caine revoke his admin privileges?
The pop-ups from Caine make it harder to see what's on the screen for both Kinger and the viewer.
Kinger selects the backup "C," but it outputs "NONE selected! Interpreted as: DELETE (???) [Y/N]". Kinger selects "N", which is no.
Caine puts "Actually, if you're CONFUSED let me HELP YOU. mod(???) EXIST? [Y/N]" Kinger selects "Y", yes.
"Are you sure you want to delete Caine? [Y/N]" it's at 90% and Kinger will be locked out momentarily. He chooses Y.
Caine gets deleted, Kinger didn't want to delete him but he could've doomed the circus if he got locked out. I may be entirely confused, but did Caine help Kinger delete him..?
No clue what this blue screen error message says, it's only shown for a second.
Chat, this episode was crazy. Feel free to further analyze these screenshots in the reblogs and comments! I certainly didn't catch everything lol.
• The "???" and "CAINE" files are from the "AI" directory, the folders weren't changed. I may be stupid. Anyway, "???" is probably Abel, whose program got corrupted after Caine, absorbed it? Opening the CAINE program is what prompted CMD.
• Bubble is 100% also in the CMD by the time Caine is, because who else would put in a censored 'MOTHERFUCKER' like that? Looks like he's actively helping / sabotaging.
• "KingSolution 2.0" implies that 1: this was either made after Kinger was trapped in the circus, or he's always been associated with 'king' and 2: this is the second iteration. Most likely, this is his second attempt at fixing Caine / accessing the mainframe during his stay.
