WHAT IF? ]

Mind Mansion anyone?

Or is it a Memory Palace?

So a convoluted way to explain Matrix Arrays or not?

Na, I've been procrastinating.

Failed to start *********: A e2-standard-2 VM instance is currently unavailable in the australia-southeast zone. Alternatively, you can try your request again with a different VM hardware configuration or at a later time. For more information, see the troubleshooting documentation.

Been trying to restart my Riverlevels server after checking on it and discovering my guesstimate was about a month over and 50gb just cuts it for half a year of river level and rain fall gauges to fill my HD and DB froze.

Stopped. Added more memory, but the bloody region is "full", so regional migration procrastination hoping restart attempts over 4 days work if not Sunday migrate.





Oh also was already experimenting with converting the 1000x1000x1000 layout and 4d and torus warping.

That was the ASCENT ascent.html I was trying to create a fly as a bird feeling.

Hence rabbit-hole a few weeks back to create pre-preocessed-preceedual vortex mapping.

P.S. It's all CPU bound, but capping about 47-52 FPS on a RYZEN 8500G or teh 15 year old HP.
