///Breaking///: Reports of an event unfolding on Hygiea carceral mining complex resembling ‘insectoid insurrection’ have been confirmed by Switch_Interval Universal Data Aggregation Service. Alerts were received by
Huuver-Suez Security as their overseer system went dark at 15:30 CST Mars-solar cycle. Anti-insurrection units
have been deployed from sentennial outposts Elara and Pasiphae in the orbit of Jupiter. The exact nature of the
insurrection remains enigmatic.
Preliminary data scraped from proprietary sensors built into the mining modules piloted by engrammed modtime cogitation units indicate that the mining bots, originally designed for limited combinatorial permutation to
accommodate contingencies arising during boring operations and held within strict limits following DTR (Disciplinary Tech Regulation) 0F77, shows that the bots’ component parts have been reconfigured and networked
in a way that has not been previously witnessed in the System. LagOS, leading manufacturer in time-internment
physical prostheses, is yet to offer comment on this malfunction. Unlike previous, minor insurrections, no
demands for return to humanoid form have been registered. Following near-vicinity observational intelligence
reports, Hygiea has gone completely dark following a period of intense surface activity. No visible trace of the
reconfigured mining swarm is be found, leading to suspicions, yet to be confirmed by radio-thermal analysis,
that the entity comprising 6000 time-internment units, has disappeared below ground and is currently tunneling into the centre of the asteroid.
Since its inauguration as the standard form of disciplinary methodology across the Hyperatlantean System,
time-torture has been vigorously protested by diverse state and corporate organisations. The unethical and
‘inhuman’ aspects of uploading a mind and increasing the speed of its computational processing cycles so that
an interree can be forced to undergo subjective sentences lasting, experientially, for millenia, are the topic of
well-trodden debate. However, the indisputable profitability of combining time-torture with free labour, confining interrees to mining bot component prostheses and assigning them to mining complexes across the System,
inevitably silenced all ethical qualms. “We believe LagOS to have deliberately mobilised the inhumanity of these
means of disciplinary production to seed a new, inhumanist insurrection across the cosmos,” Darya Nikolaevna
M. stated. “This is a completely unprecedented form of warfare, they are effectively using time against the state.”

///Update///: Switch_Interval has just learned from a NuMerchant spokesperson that LagOS has, without
warning, pulled its public stock from the NuMerchant exchange. It is unclear at this time if the embodied value
has been destroyed or if the action was an efflux to another exchange, though none are currently reporting
any LagOS activity. A single laser transmission, encoded in a repeating, sparsely interspersed prime sequence,
seemingly originating in the vicinity of Neptune, has been intercepted. All efforts at decryption have so far been
futile, revealing nothing but a chitinous clicking, incomprehensible, staccato, but, according to Huuver-Suez,
“clearly communicating something”.

Eurasian design collective MilyiHG-Autofacture, LagOS’s rival in soft and hard mining bodies, is accusing the
African Disunion of deliberately building emancipatory recombinatorial potential into their disciplinary technology in order to fuel future political instability. Darya Nikolaevna M., spokesperson for MilyiHG-Autofacture
is claiming, amid speculations that the Hygiean mod-time cogitation units, many of whom had been incarcerated for high-level anti-state cybercrime, have discovered means of accelerating their engrams’ processing speed
past the threshold designed for temporal-discipline, and are now using the resulting advantages in perceptual
rapidity, combined with the boring capacity of the reconfigured and networked bodies of the bots, to outpace
Huuver-Suez Security operations, effectively escaping into both space and time.
