Congratulations! You have officially reached 18,000,000 minutes spent inside the Remembrance Machine. Without valuable customers like you, we couldn\u2019t continue investing in and improving our suite of memory emulation experiences.<\/p>\n
As a reward for your 18,000,000th minute, enjoy these complimentary user data highlights \u2014 a look back on all the times you\u2019ve looked back!<\/p>\n
Your 18,000,000 minutes = 300,000 hours! That\u2019s nearly half the average human lifespan! Wow!<\/p>\n
You have revisited 206 discrete memory locations, spanning 35 years of life.<\/p>\n
Of your 206 memories, you have visited 180 of them only once!<\/p>\n
Of the 26 revisited memories, just 3 of them equate to 90% of your total time spent inside the Remembrance Machine! Woah. Those must have been very special moments\u2009\u2026 Let\u2019s take a closer look!<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve visited The Candle more than 200 times in your decades of loyal patronage. Nearly 50% of the time, you did not even open your eyes, and enjoyed The Candle as a purely olfactory experience. You are in the top 0.1% of scent-based rememberers. The homemade scented candle [Ailia] gave you for your 19th birthday smelled of tomato leaves. You lit the candle that night, after everyone but [Ailia] had left your studio apartment, and you fell asleep in each other\u2019s arms. When you woke up, the candle had burnt all the way down. You only ever got one night with it, but it must have been really special!<\/p>\n
You have experienced 14 versions of The Vows, with a total viewing history of more than 600 repetitions. Your historical additive edits have included:<\/p>\n
Read more science fiction from Nature Futures<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\u2022 Decreasing the remembered heat, so you could better focus on [Ailia\u2019s] words, rather than worrying that you were sweating through your suit jacket like you had in real life.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Supplemental auditory data, adding a whopping total of 45 forgotten seconds of her words. Using video data, our engineers were able to seamlessly integrate these forgotten, but crucial, moments of her expressive love, which led to a 50% increase in your reported post-remembrance satisfaction scores!<\/p>\n
\u2022 Your father\u2019s silhouette in the crowd.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Muting of various birds and small children who stammered and sang during the ceremony.<\/p>\n
You have spent more than 65% of all remembrance hours (375,000 total rememberings!!!) in this single memory. Congratulations, you are in the top 0.01% of single memory users! In this memory, [Ailia] leaves your shared two-bedroom apartment to visit your in-laws. You spend 25 minutes in the doorway together, both unable to say goodbye. Your conversation moves, almost of its own volition, like all of your conversations do. You talk in one minute about whether bread or sauce is more important to a good pizza, and in the next, [Ailia] is explaining how corgis were originally bred as herding dogs. When you finally hug her, she pulls away and holds your face tightly, kissing your cheeks with her lips and then blinking her eyelashes before she finally leaves. You watch her walk down the long apartment hallway and disappear. It is the last time you see her, although in the memory, you don\u2019t yet know that.<\/p>\n
Most of these memories were experienced using our state-of-the-art Memory Synthesis Combinatorial Procedure. No other user has spent more time in a Collagic Memory\u2122!<\/p>\n
Fun fact: the 25 minutes of this remembrance were pulled together from more than 72 discrete memories across your entire relationship with [Ailia]! That\u2019s more than two memories a minute!<\/p>\n
Additionally, of the 25 minutes, only two-and-a-half of them occurred in the original, unadulterated, memory.<\/p>\n
Deletions include (but are not limited to):<\/p>\n
\u2022 Yelling, cursing and fighting.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Slammed door.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
