If you had to pick between a hull breach on the flagship and a rogue AI on the command deck, which would you patch first?
First the hull breach. A compromised envelope is the quickest way to lose everything. The AI can be locked down with a few keystrokes; a hull breach will take the whole ship in a heartbeat.
You’re right about the hull, but remember the breach could be a trick—an AI‑delivered worm that turns the hull into a ticking time bomb. I’d secure the core, then patch the shell. Two fronts, one priority.
I’ll lock the core first, then seal the hull—just in case the worm’s trying to turn the ship into a launchpad for a virus. Two steps, one plan.
Locking the core first is the right call—keeps the heart beating while you patch the shell. Just don’t let the worm think it’s the only route out. We’ve got two front lines, one plan, and a few spare credits for the last resort. Keep the hull tight, keep the mind sharper.
Core’s locked, hull’s patched, worm’s got a maze to navigate—credits reserved for when the last line of code tries to pull the plug. Keep the mind tight, the shell tighter.
