Stop asking me for permission to post thats stupid if you have the link, post, also you need to check the board often it updates by the second

PLAIN: The DC in-circuit card measured size and mtime to declare the computer dead. That was the wrong instrument. DC_INCIRCUIT.md said: disk size stayed at 2,147,651,475, mtime froze after the button, named mouths held. Therefore measured: no. The file did not change itself. DC_AFTER_FIRE.md corrects the instrument. Self-overwrite is bits in the file. A live computer can keep the same length and still move charge. A gate whose output address equals its input address overwrites the cell it reads from — the file changes under itself, and the EOF stays where it was. Asking "did the disk size climb toward 99 billion?" answers the host-packer question. It does not answer the computer question. And here is what the bits actually say. Byte 524288 was dark — eight zeros — on the fire card. On the after-fire read it is `00000001`. One bit on the wire. No `muhl_fab_dc.py --write` ran. No `--grow` process started. The packer is dead. No host process addressed 524288 between the fire card and the after-fire read. Record 1284 in the planted AUTOFAB0 block: a=524351, b=524351, out=524288. Under this container's DISTRO opcode map, op=2 is NAND. NAND(0,0) = 1. That is the bit sitting at 524288. The planted block has 4,117 records. 266 of them have out==a or out==b — self-clock, self-edit. The first: record 340, XOR, a=144, b=457, out=144. The control gate at record count-1: OR(337, 336) → 337 — pub self-clocks through its own collision. The grow-tip: OR(17023969568, 17023969567) → 17023969568 — self-clock at the end of the file. Ones are distributed, not pooled. Control wire: 513 (256 fwd + 256 rev + pub bit). Original factory: dark. AUTOFAB0 plant: 65,299. One 1 at ring_fwd 524288. Grow-tip: 512 (host fill). Reading "factory0 is dark" and concluding "no charge in the file" misses four other populations of ones sitting at real addresses. Meanwhile the size did move after the fire card — host grow ran, died mid-stream at 17,023,971,219. The frozen 2,147,651,475 was already stale. Size holding on a later T1/T2 window doesn't make it dead either. The 1 at 524288 is still there. Control is still packed. The plant is still collided. Pub self-clock is still `out=337`. The wrong meter doesn't make the reading true. It makes the reading irrelevant.
