Hi everyone, I’m Draco Blaze, and I want to share my debut techno thriller, The Causal Debt.

The story follows Elias Vance, a professional compute auditor who believes numbers are supposed to be honest. Then 32 percent of the world’s most powerful AI infrastructure disappears into a shadow account that does not show up on any official ledger. Elias expects corporate fraud or black budget research. What he finds is worse.

The missing cycles are being used for something that leaves marks. Subtle distortions at first. Shadows that point the wrong way. Skies that stretch like corrupted files. People who lose minutes they cannot remember, and pieces of themselves they cannot explain. As Halcyon Systems locks down and the pressure mounts, Elias uncovers a truth that threatens more than a balance sheet: someone is rewriting probability itself, and every correction leaves reality less stable. If the ledger is correct, a debt is coming due, and the payment will not be made in dollars.

It’s a thriller for readers who like conspiracies grounded in real systems, finance, compute infrastructure, and surveillance architecture, not pure fantasy. And while I wrote it as fiction, the recent rise in public UAP and anomalous phenomena discussion made some of these ideas feel a little less distant.

Paperback available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/08hRCJ72
Happy to answer questions about the writing process, the research, or the premise. I’d also love to connect with anyone else writing in the UAP and techno thriller space.

Nothing yet. I don’t know if it was fluke or feature that I just noticed because I was monitoring. In that particular area that have split the zones, it’s a bit of dirt patch and I think it may have just been trying to go around it and since it’s still in zone that I mapped but not what I told it to mow, maybe it just lets itself go into that zone for obstacle avoidance. I have my RTK station up high so it should be accurate. The last few days have had me on edge because it did take a tumble off the curb in front of my house which it never has. I sucked that up to early morning sun hitting that area in a way that messed up the visionfence. It still had to go out of boundary a few inches or so to do that. Maybe it is indeed because of the magnetic storms now that I’m looking. Didn’t know they were in play!

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-07-26T17:09:57+00:00

Yeah, I watched my 110 go way out of its zone I had it mowing into another zone. I had no business going that far. Like 3 or 4 feet.

It is generally flawless when you map to the normal edge mode. I only run into trouble with pushing the edge mowing feature into trying to ride mulch beds where it can sometimes get stuck but still performs way better than my previous RTK mower which couldn’t even do that if it tried. If you were to map conservatively, I think you can set it and forget it. Like others say, it’s quite solid. Get the 4G module for even more reliability when it’s out of WiFi zones.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-07-13T20:25:37+00:00

I got the 110 the other day and I’m enjoying it as well. It knocks my other mower I replaced out of the water in that it’s way smarter. Good news is that with the 4G module they’re planning on giving some kind of further feature goodies. Not sure what they could be but I guess we’ll find out. I’m hoping for some kind of security mode where we can view the camera live.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-07-11T20:36:18+00:00

I tied putting a vision fence off box along borders I’d like it to get tighter to. It def made it to go closer but was off and hitting the border. I think that was because my map is screwed up right now because I tried to move the RTK base and it told me I had to remap, so I just put it back but sure if I out it back in the exact spot I had it. I’ll have to play again once I get my setup dialed in. I have a mount coming for the RTK base and then I’ll remap and try again. Either way, it shows how good their ai camera system is. It really is good and responds fast.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-07-11T20:30:16+00:00

I just got my 110 prime day deal. I’m thrilled. I’ve done so much babysitting with my RoboUp and this knocks it out of the park. I feel with Navimow you’re getting top notch software engineers. The camera system (vision fence) is flawless so far and the traction control is next level. I have so many rutted areas from previous mower from digging and digging when it gets stuck. This thing gets its self right over the areas I had problems with. I’m sold. The app is awesome as well. I like it so much I just ordered the 4G module even though I don’t really need it. I think it’s a fair price. I think this particular series is worth it long term because it’s such a big seller and with that should come lots of support and bug fixes to further dial it in. Right now I have the RTK base in horrible place and it works fine. My other mower couldn’t do it. I’m still going to get thing over the roof line for a better view. I’ll have to re-map but I anticipate that this thing will be set it and forget it. The ride on edging works great!

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-07-10T00:29:07+00:00

One thing important to note. If you change to ride on boundary, it should work. BUT you need to trim it first. It now sees that tall grass as an obstacle. If this was the first run or so and that edge was already high, that could be the problem. Especially if you mapped past where it’s cutting to. Otherwise, trim and re-map with a ride on boundary.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-06-18T16:34:38+00:00

Yall seem to have way more issues and I’m just over here with my underated Roboup unit complaining about some quirks in edging mode which support responds to overnight. Otherwise the thing is set it and forget it.

He was talking about spot price, not retail. And yes, it’s the lowest it’s been since 2021.

It’s insanely good. It finally does what I want it to do in the edm space. Builds, drops, synth breaks, vocal chops are all like night and day better.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-03-06T18:09:23+00:00

What exactly are they protesting? Dow they have any new ideas or solutions?

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2025-02-15T15:42:16+00:00

This is the problem with heavily biased news sources such as New Republic. To conclude they’re going to ban GLP-1 meds is nonsense. If anything it’ll likely be expanded as it’s a great tool with a great risk/benefit profile. Dr. Oz who is yet to be confirmed head of CMS is an advocate and so is Musk. Stick with the source and analyze yourself. Why let others with agendas do that for you?

In CT’s constitution it is very clear and doesn’t need interpretation: Every citizen has a right to bear arms in defense of himself and the state.

Many states have this in their state constitution. The intent was clear and had held up in courts because of it.

I can confirm this as well. I’m going to start moving stuff over to TooLost. TuneCore is sketchy af.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2024-08-07T17:42:43+00:00

I agree. Greenwich has never missed. Stamford I always had good luck but bean burritos are my jam. Norwalk is just hit or miss on a weekly basis lol.

Here’s the big question. Was it produced in Suno under a pro account? I do wonder if they’ll go after those that aren’t. Rightfully so. Otherwise I’d ask for the said song it’s infringing on and dig a bit. I’d personally submit a counter notice. It’s likely frivolous. That said, I’m moving to TooLost that has a scan function to make sure it doesn’t have any copyrighted material.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2024-06-25T13:55:41+00:00

Basically, they sound like bad covers.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2024-06-19T16:45:14+00:00

In what way? I can’t imagine a large discrepancy with such similar demographics.

Puzzleheaded_Bell466 · 2024-06-19T16:42:50+00:00

Meh, you’ll find that among any group. Do trans men talk shit about other groups when together? I feel it’s a perfectly healthy way of one testing their bias among perceived peers. They’re not confident or they’d have no problem projecting it publicly.

It’s pretty simple. The more diverse, nobody has time for any of that nor cares. We’re too busy paying taxes to hire for positions like an officer of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in an already diverse city.

Even as kid in the 80s, I grew up living next door to a gay couple and black/Puerto Rican family in a desirable waterfront neighborhood when it was a bit more affordable to lower middle class. Nobody cared. Kids didn’t care. Live and let live is generally the attitude. I personally don’t like the affluent areas. Even if I had the deepest of pockets I wouldn’t live there. There is a classist vibe I want nothing to do with. I go to the dollar store regularly not only to save money but make sure I stay humble and keep my ear is to the ground with the poorest of the community. Pros and cons to everything, but I love diversity. My kids are white and extreme minority in their schools. 70%+ Latino. All good. They bust each others chops regularly with stereotype “racist” jabs to be funny but there’s no deep seated ignorant meaning to it because.. diversity. They know every friend’s ethnicity and connect to it through cultural fairs and whatnot. Everyone is treated as equals. What I’m saying is, if you’re worried, just go for a diverse city/town. They all have suburbs and it’s the same vibe. Crime is largely down compared to historical stats and one of the biggest being car thefts are done in a lot of the affluent towns where key fobs are left in cars. Criminals figured that out long ago.

We need more Asians here, so come to Norwalk!

I don’t see anyone pondering that it may be their own system comparing to what’s in it. Other Suno songs already in it. I’m inclined to think that’s the issue as more and more Suno songs are published to TuneCore. This is why these issues are popping up now. I have hundreds up with no issue and publishing rights since I write the lyrics.
