[That attempt at locking the conversation is almost cute, as far as Jack's concerned.]
The ECHO tech here's pretty archaic, but once you get the hang of it... of course, I'm a computer genius, so I've got an advantage.
Anyway, no, it's...I dunno. Some people say it just doesn't happen, some people say you just...come back. I'm more inclined to believe the latter, it's not like every major tech company in the universe hasn't been working toward it since digistruction was a thing. we just haven't done it. Yet. But maybe they have here, this place is entirely off the grid.
I've thought about the simulation angle, but it doesn't add up. Consciousness and senses can be tricked, but the base brain....it is not stupid. It knows. And eventually it starts giving the eyes and ears and the dumb, easily tricked part of the brain little signs and signals that nothing's real.
No, I think if anything is going on - I'm not ruling out that this is just a really friggin messed up planet - it's more likely something's fucking with us. Some powerful alien with a crappy sense of humor.
