Axis Mind[edit]

Is there a way if anybody can help me create a new article about Axis Minds or someone else like Dante or Arcmind to do it?? -- Titan66 (talk) 24:56, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

I'd be happy to help you. :) Just let me know what you are thinking and I'll create the page and you can take over from there!

Arcmind ^{Execute long hold for reactivation. AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF} 08:56, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

Yes, teach me how? -- Titan66 (talk) 14:41, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

It'd be my pleasure. ;) Whenever you are ready, just hit me up through the message board - or preferably the discord, and I will walk ou through the necessary steps. It is relatively simple to do actually. From there, you will be able to make pages whenever you want.

Arcmind ^{Execute long hold for reactivation. AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF} 15:38, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

How about you create the Axis Mind article, I'm not good at creating them I'm only good at editing them ;) -- Titan66 (talk) 17:26, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

I could, but I would much rather you learn how so that you are always able to contribute without waiting on someone else to get around to it. Besides, with D2 coming out, we could definitely use your help. And being able to edit independently will make you more effective. It is quite easy to make them and can be done in a matter of minutes. I can still make it if you want, but I just thought knowing how may come in handy when I or Dante are not around. What say you?

Arcmind ^{Execute long hold for reactivation. AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF} 17:42, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

Deal ;) -- Titan66 (talk) 18:30, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

Alright, so why don't you type in the words Axis Mind (the way it is capitalized here) in the search. Then click on the red link. It will take you to an editing thing. Then just do like you would normally when editing. Also don't forget to add a boss template with the appropriate info. When you finish, hit save and that is all you need to do. :)

Arcmind ^{Execute long hold for reactivation. AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF} 18:35, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

I already did it. You're welcome. :)

Primus Draug'oth ^{Can I help you? • No, you do it.} 18:45, 30 August 2017 (EST)

That's fine I'm gonna edit it now or in the future anyway thank you. -- Titan66 (talk) 18:46, 30 August 2017 (EDT)

Quick Vex Laser Rifle Inquiry: It that's its name?[edit]

Just so people are aware, I don't have Destiny 2, so I can't check it out for myself. But my question I have is is the "Vex Laser Rifle" actually weapon's name? For the longest time I thought it was a placeholder name, like with the Hive Splinter and other such weapons. But no one's seems to ever change it, and I refuse to believe that Bungie would name it so simply. Even the Root Mind's version was called 'Chronology Rifle'. It that the weapon's actually name but no one's changed it? So please, if you can answer this, please do so. Thank you. --—This unsigned comment was made by 77.102.174.36 (talk • contribs).

Laser Rifle is the name used to refer to them in the Grimoire, I believe. Arcmind ^{Execute long hold for reactivation. AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF} 15:23, 18 September 2018 (EDT)

Yes, Primus Draug'oth had a link to a demo video which (due to them getting people who never played Destiny before) had one of the Guardians die to it and show the kill feed. I still have my doubts at something so simplicity, but unless I decide to pick up the game to answer one solitary question myself, it is what it is. Thanks for informing me Arcmind. Consider this question closed.

They did use very simplistic names in the first game, such as slug rifle, arc blade, slap rifle etc. Somehow I recall being killed by vex using a "Laser Rifle" before so it's not impossible for them to use a simple name to describe the weapon—Guardian gear is typically where they get elaborate with the names. But yeah, hope this helped and see you startside! Arcmind out. Arcmind ^{Execute long hold for reactivation. AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF} 10:20, 19 September 2018 (EDT)

I may have missed this, and I can't find the enemy that use it. What is it? All I know is that it was added back in April 2020, so most likely it was from an enemy around that time (which looks to be Season of the Worthy). Anyone know where this is from?--82.35.156.7 15:20, March 8, 2023 (EST)

-== SIVA, the Vex, and Other Theories - Chapter 1 ==
-SIVA
-Origin
-We know that SIVA was created by Clovis Bray during the Golden Age and that its initial purpose was to be used as a universal resource for colonization, the idea being that it can be used to create anything necessary during colonization efforts of different worlds.
-It's worth noting that at the same time SIVA was being investigated and developed, a separate project was being worked on by Dr. Bray's teams to use nanotechnology to enhance the strength and intelligence of test subjects, but was scrapped due to unforeseen consequences. Focus was then turned solely to developing SIVA instead. This was discovered by Owl Sector during the Transmission incident. I believe this is at least partly important to connecting the dots, but it is where I'm going to speculate. I'll save the rest for later.
-Nature
-Essentially, SIVA is nanotech that breaks down matter and reconstitutes it as whatever it is programmed to become. The key here is the open-ended nature of of what SIVA is capable of - with the right (or wrong) programming, it can be used to create with endless possibility.
-Excerpts from the Grimoire are interesting in understanding not only what it was going to be used for, but how it works:
-We've found a way to push our matter encryption technology even further. ~SIVA.MEM.WB002
-Based on this, we can assume that this was originally developed from Engram tech, which is what "matter encryption" refers to. This is important because it immediately implies complex data structures capable of storing huge amounts of data in small spaces.
-Habitats, equipment, repairs of all kinds—all of these things can be made from one material. ~SIVA.MEM.WB003
-Pretty straightforward description of what SIVA can be used for that mainly highlights, again, the main idea that SIVA as a whole can used to manipulate matter into just about anything.
-SIVA doesn't expire, degrade, or forget. It can remain dormant even on long voyages. ~SIVA.MEM.WB004
-It's an inorganic material, not subject to entropy (likely due to it being derived from Engram tech), and more importantly, has a data storage capacity of some kind. This is important because it tells us that SIVA doesn't need to be directly manipulated, but can be encoded with commands and then "released". This also implies that it has a data transmission structure as well - similar to how machine code for hardware uses binary 1s and 0s, SIVA has some way of reading/writing data that isn't specified.
-Well, SIVA requires no external power source, so…forever. ~SIVA.MEM.WB007
-This is also very important. The wording here makes it complicated to be 100% certain of the structure of SIVA and whether individual particles have their own eternal, internal power source, or because of its inorganic nature it simply doesn't require power to work. Most likely, it doesn't require power to perform it functions (data transmission and data storage) but does require power of some kind to be restructured into whatever it is programmed to become. This is speculation at best, however, since the Grimoire and other sources don't really expand on this idea.
-Just give it a directive, and it won't stop until it gets a new directive. ~SIVA.MEM.WB008
-This is another sticky one - this can imply either giving inert material its programming which is then executed somehow by an external force, or that once the programming is given, it is self-executing.
-Given what we know about SIVA, it seems to be the latter. That adds some additional aspects to the nature of SIVA, namely processing capabilities and possibly some level of either operating structure or "software", so to speak.
-In order for the transmitted and/or stored data to be turned into an action by SIVA, data processing has to occur, much like how a CPU translates machine code to some kind of output. Furthermore, for that output to become a coherent outside structure (for example turning SIVA into a replacement part for a colony ship), the input data has to have instructions on how to achieve that end-result and the data processing structure needs to have instructions on how to process that kind of set of instructions.
-What I'm getting at is that SIVA is more complicated than it seems, containing at least:
-Data storage
-Data transmission channels
-Data processing
-Output capabilities
-It's clearly not "intelligent", so we can rule out AI and look at it more simply as an all-in-one universal 3D printer with all-encompassing systems. It can accept commands and use itself as the structure for "printing" whatever it was programmed to become. This is further confirmed by the statement:
-General, poorly worded or malicious code is the fault of the programmer, not SIVA itself. ~SIVA.MEM.WB010
-This pretty much confirms that SIVA is not AI, just to get that out of the way. [[User:Nittin Das|Nittin Das]] ([[User talk:Nittin Das|talk]]) 16:24, 19 April 2018 (EDT)
