"That Shape Had None" – A Horror of Substrate Independence (Short Fiction)

Thanks, it was refreshing to feel the imaginary horrors instead of living the ones that are happening.

I usually don't leave this kind of comments, but I really can't read yellow text on dark red background for more than 20 seconds.

Good read. Feels like Lena was among inspirations.

Interesting.

Lots of parallels to the (very good) videogame SOMA.

This reminds me of "Calliope" in Sandman

Oddly, I don't get the reader-mode option in Firefox for the site... one of these days I should probably figure out why that sometimes happens

Save to Instapaper and read on Kobo ;-)

It's an odd site design. Stories are loaded dynamically by script based on the URL fragment identifier; I'd imagine Reader Mode isn't geared toward that sort of thing.

I also wonder why they decided that hiding the scrollbar was a good idea.

And for the digital graphics people, consider using a modern variant instead: https://mortenhannemose.github.io/lena/
