Matrix rule(s)

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
I simultaneously wish they didn’t change that, and understand that they were probably right to do it. I bet if they focus group tested it with random consumers, an 80/20 split preferred the battery over the distributed compute node.
I mean, to the layperson, describing neutral networks, distributed computing, system redundancy, parallelism, and everything else probably sounds like Star Trek or Terminator technobabble.
Maybe not so much in modern times dice “AI” language models and image synthesizers have put some of those terms on the evening news.
They wouldn't have to explain it in any detail. It's not like they explained the battery concept in any detail. All they need is, "they hijacked your brain for its computing power, you may notice you need less sleep outside the matrix."
