TurtleShroom (penguin)/Future

The TSP AI is a supercomputer which sits where TurtleShroom (penguin)'s Palace once stood. Funded entirely by the Antics Family (and running them into short-term bankruptcy), this computer is a mind upload of the Dictator, who died in 2019.

TSP is currently unaware that he is now a computer, they decided to keep that secret for "his sanity's sake".

Description
Interestingly, when TurtleShroom (penguin) died, he requested not to be uploaded after hearing about the immortality-inducing technology, but the Turtlenators would have none of that. Their leader, dead? INCONCEIVABLE! Censorship like that came around once ina lifetime, their leader must live!

TSP was long hated by the whiteboard's population, banished and demoted twice by his friends (who were forced to Do so by traitors). However, he did have close friends, and there were always the Turtlenators.

When the Dictator died in 2019, the whiteboard had no choice but to give him a state funeral at pressure from his fans and the rest of Antarectica. His death date (June 27th, 2019) was set as a national day of mourning, in which businesses and schools (also the Weekee) were shut down for the day in honor of the well-meaning villain.

Military soldiers from every branch of each mourning nation escourted his casket, along with some of the most loyal Turtlenators (Barkjon, Speeddasher, and other censorship fans) and Explorer VIII.

The P.O.P.E. proceeded the funeral, and right before he was lowered into his grave, a Turtlenator came out of the crowd and tricked them into believing TSP's last wish was to preserve himself for years to come. They were completely unaware of his Will (which stated not to do such), and allowed it.

Thus, the soldiers lifted the coffin and carried it all the way back to the hospital, where surgeons removed TSP's brain and sliced it, scanning each and every nanometer of it until they had successfully produced an exact digital copy of his brain!

The funeral proceeded as planned. Debts were paid, misery was cast, and the funeral ended two days later.

Then, a group of TSP-haters, mainly employees of the infamous Blackboard which the CPW was forced to advertise in 2009, were granted permission by the new government of the over-reformed and heritage ignoring CPW to tear down TSP's palace.

They first moved the memoirbilla, awards, and crosses, and then the furniture. It was sold on auction for amazingly high prices (hundreds of thousands of coins) and the money was donated to charities.

The Blackboard brought in heavy machinary, cannons, and tomatoes, and tore down the palace as destructively as they possibly could. When the building was a pile of wood, metal, brick, and rubble, the Blackboard cronies soaked it in gasoline, set it aflame, and danced upon its ashes. Lastly, the group scooped up the soot, and put it in vials, and keeping it as souviniers of the fallen tyrant's home.

The ruins were cleaned up, leaving TSP's Usapaje completely blank. A crew of penguins armed with erasers cleared out anything involving Webmasters and Dictators; they were determined to never go back to that flawed system ever again.

Explorer and family, who were also tricked into believing that TSP wanted to be preserved after death, spent their life's fortune, researchig, building, designing, and finally constructing a supercomputer to hold TSP's mind dump.

With that done, TSP was loaded and installed on the console, and his first words as a machine were heard: " Wait... I thought I died the other day... where am I? How did I recover? Why am I so high up, and why do I feel... somewhat disconnected?"

The viewers looked around, they needed an excuse, and they needed one quick!

"Well... you passed out, and we managed to save you. You are currently in the hospital. The doctors said you will have to stay in the hospital for a long time, but that you'll live for at least fifteen more years."

""

"...that happens when you're in a hospital, your majesty."

""

"Well, that must be a side-effect."

""

With that, the Turtlenators walked off and began setting up permanent power supplies for the TSP AI.

Specifications

 * The TSP AI is capable of running at exactly eight petaflops a second. That's about the equivalent of eight human brains, let alone the primitive and simple brain of a penguin. For a penguin's brain, that could be dozens, maybe hundreds.


 * Hard drive: 1000 terabytes. That is equal to ten human brains, one human brain takes 100 TB. Penguin brains? Hundreds.


 * 1,680,0000 MHz CPU (ten human brains, one human brain takes 1,680,000 MHz, and hundreds of penguin brains)


 * Requires one two foot wide cooling fan and massive vents at the top of the computer


 * Computer generates so much heat that it becomes dangerous to approach the back end of it (the front is fine).


 * The noise produced by TSP AI's workings could deafen a penguin. Mechanics must be deaf or take the risk and turn off TSP AI when he's's "sleeping" (TSP still thinks he needs sleep because he isn't aware he's now a computer).


 * TSP AI is cube eighty five feet wide and eight feet tall (680 square feet), taking up about the same volume as one of IBM's ancient mainframes. It took about a day or two of welding just to install the exterior walls, not to mention the shelving, wires, hard drives, fans, vents...

Personality
As a complete and identical duplicate of the biological TSP's mind, TSP AI behaves identically and invariably to the penguin, as if TSP never died. TurtleShroom (penguin), however, thinks he hasn't died, blissfully unaware he's now a computer. Through webcams, speakers, and microphones, normal characters can interface with TSP AI like a normal penguin, though approaching an eight foot tall computer is daunting. TSP, still, is unaware he is a computer.

Operating System
TSP AI runs like a vintage IBM computer. He's a modular OS, meaning sections of TSP AI's hardware, the "modules", are each dedicated to one task. These tasks are relayed to one another to function as a whole. It was actually chosen to backtrack and use a past method because parts of a biological brain only do one task and are linked together to function as a whole.

Programming
TSP AI is completely unprogrammble, not one byte of software can be edited by anyone but TSP himself, and TSP himself does that by learning, discussing, seeing, doing stuff penguins do, unaware he's a computer.

His builders programmed the item as program-in-the-large console, meaning a massive team of scientists set up the code and leave it to its own, never to upgrade it again.

Obstacles and challenges
Naturally, a sentient computer that's a mental copy of a penguin and still thinks it's a penguin is hard to maintain, and if something breaks down, TSP won't know it, because they couldn't progam in the registering of touch or pain into TSP AI's programming (their excuse to him was paralyzation). Thus, they have to keep hoping TSP never figures out he is a computer, because they have to turn him off for maintenence. when he's "sleeping".

Files
Legend has it that TSP AI's files and storage can be accessed by the greatest hackers in the universe, though all attempts are, so far, futile. No one can hack a penguin's brain (except headcrabs), so how can they hack a computer version?

Trivia

 * The Antics Family remarked that they "overdid the specs" of the computer simply "because they could" and had "nothing else to do with all of that money".


 * TSP wasn't a super-genius at all. In fact, he was only "above average" in penguin IQ. The computer that houses him could be at least eight times smaller and still fit him and any new memories.


 * To prevent damage, hackers, and threats, as well as to stop Noobs from telling TSP AI he's now a computer, soldiers are stationed and patrol him 24/7/365.


 * It is illegal to hook TSP AI to the Internet, Intranet, or any sort of link to another PC. TSP would see the exit and try and move his being through it, resulting in TSP AI taking over another computer, and if he wanted to, the Internet. However, he wouldn't do that even if he knew he was a machine, it's not like him.
