Five Things You Don't Know About the Murderbot Diaries
I have the concentration of a small woodland animal today, so here's a post. I've talked about these in a couple of interviews, so I thought I'd collect them here.
* Murderbot refers to humans by only one name because it uses their feed IDs.
* Murderbot was sentient before it hacked its governor module. All SecUnits, ComfortUnits, other constructs are sentient.
* The Company has a name which is written in the logos Murderbot has on its body, but Murderbot will never use it.
* ART has a human name given to it by its crew, but its real name is a numerical feed address. All bots have one and that's what they use when they communicate with each other, and not the names that humans might give them. Murderbot has one too and that's what ART uses when they talk to each other.
* The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon and all the other shows that Murderbot mentions are based on real TV shows.
Bonus not about Murderbot: Ratthi is super hot. We're talking Sendhil Ramamurthy levels of hot.

Oooh. Fascinating! This vaguely makes me want to know everyone's full names / ID numbers, though I realize this information is largely irrelevant to the world at large.
I want to see rise and fall of Sanctuary Moon! What show is it based on?
Another reason to live Ratthi. Btw, I love Art’s nickname 💙 and can’t wait for Murderbot to use it in a fight (I was blessed by the e-arc gods)
