Hey folks. This community is great, and I'm very glad that people have chosen to use it.

However, lemmy.world is a big instance, and it can be overloaded at times.

As such I'm going to set it to mod posts only and suggest everyone switch over to [email protected] the their writing prompt fun

A low dry raspy chuckle leaked from behind a door she was currently motionless in front of. The chuckle progressed until it became full-throated and then stopped just as quickly. There was a soft crash and a few seconds later she opened the door. On the floor there was a fresh corpse that she glanced at apathetically. She walked forward curious of the text on a computer screen a few paces ahead. It read:

./judgement 12713600 -s "Homo Sapien"
[Warning] species "Homo Sapien" selected, are you sure you want to target humans (y/n): y
[Warning] no measure selected, defaulting to meters

00:43 [############-------------------------------------] 24%

She watched as the progress bar ticked up, when it finished the terminal read:

02:27 [#################################################] 100%

All humans within a 12713600 meter radius have been judged and dealt with accordingly.
[Warning] 9 humans could not be judged, would you like to try again (y/n):

The block cursor slowly blinked waiting for input.
