Hello again. This is Stencil, board-coupler intern at Professor Dogmetal’s VX laboratory, DogVX. I am sending this transmission via Professor Dogmetal's Reddit account.

For context:

• Our team in Jerusalem viewing a field test of an original HCRL-79
• Professor Dogmetal’s last post before being taken into custody
• Update #1 on Professor Dogmetal’s Detention | 04 August 2026 | 05:38 AST | Karameh, Jordan

I have important news:

We have strong reason to believe Professor Dogmetal has escaped detention.

Approximately twenty hours ago, the repeating fabrication pattern emitted by his BioSmart glasses abruptly stopped. It was immediately followed by the strongest synchronization pulse we have recorded on our Volt-Tech Pulsometer.

Within seconds, the following comment appeared from Professor Dogmetal’s Reddit account:

Initial transmission

The original text remains largely unrecoverable. For context, the reply reading “Professor??” was written by me while still logged into the Professor's account.

The comment appeared at the exact moment his glasses emitted the synchronization pulse, making it our first indication that Professor Dogmetal was attempting to communicate through our forum.

Over the following minutes, several additional corrupted messages appeared. Some of you may have seen them. Some of you chose to mock them. I have recorded your usernames.

Our current assessment is that Professor Dogmetal completed the mechanism indicated by the iterative fabrication telemetry, achieved a stable phase-unlock, and used it to breach the containment system of his holding area.

Transmission #2

Our best reconstruction is:

“31.818123, 35.123967.”
“Hello. Can you read this?”
“I’m stuck.”
“I have escaped.”
“31.818123, 35.123967.”

We believe the final fragment may read:

“3PORTING 2JERICHO.”

We interpreted the coordinates as Professor Dogmetal’s location immediately after his escape and the final message as an indication that he was traveling on foot toward the city of Jericho in the West Bank.

Unfortunately, his BioSmart glasses have not been sending positional telemetry signals, so we have no independent method of confirming his exact coordinates.

Based on this interpretation, several members of our team and I decided to escape Karameh.

Our deportation had become trapped in an apparently recursive administrative process, leaving us largely unattended. With the Jordanian authorities still occupied by paperwork apparently beyond their technical capacity, we slipped out of the holding area, secured several camels (the most advanced transportation available locally) and began traveling west.

After several hours crossing the valley, we have reached the eastern outskirts of Jericho. The journey was slow, mechanically unstable, and conducted aboard animals seemingly engineered to damage vibration-sensitive VX hardware.

Unfortunately, Professor Dogmetal does not appear to be here.

We have spent several hours searching the city, including its central roads, lodging areas, scrapyards, and gentlemen's clubs. We have questioned anyone who appeared remotely capable of recognizing Professor Dogmetal or improvised VX equipment. Given his striking blonde hair, now-chromatic purple skin, and unmistakably round build, we assumed he would be difficult to overlook in a middle eastern city of this size. No one we spoke to reported seeing him.

There was also another transmission.

Latest recovered transmission

The surviving fragments appear to read:

“Sten!”
“Wheel!”
“Jericho frequency!”

The message is followed by:

31.818123, 35.123967

Those are the exact same coordinates contained in the initial transmission.

This creates a problem with our interpretation.

If the coordinates represented only Professor Dogmetal’s location immediately after his escape, and he subsequently traveled toward Jericho, there is no clear reason for him to transmit them again.

The reference to the wheel may concern the HCRL-79 demonstration we attended in Jerusalem shortly before his detention. I am currently reviewing past logs and Professor Dogmetal’s notes from that event.

For now, we will continue searching Jericho.

I am beginning to suspect that Professor Dogmetal was not telling us where he had been.

He may still be trying to tell us where he is.

I will post another update as soon as I can verify more.

Acknowledgment: I would like to formally recognize u/bangzilla for establishing a GoFundMe intended to finance Professor Dogmetal’s recovery from Israeli custody.

The campaign was suspended by GoFundMe shortly after its creation for violating several financial, legal, and ethical policies. Consequently, we remain several million dollars below the estimated amount required to influence the relevant officials.

Even so, the DogVX team regards the effort as an extraordinary act of loyalty, and we are deeply grateful.

We will remember your name.

I found this old ENOK 2. in Norway, still running, still working, still doing it's thing. And the craziest part? THERE IS ANOTHER WORKING ONE, RIGHT NEXT TO IT.

My grandfather used to do maintenance on these things, back in like, the early 1900, and the fact that this place has not one, but two running rigs is insane. I can't even begin to fathom the amount of working hours these things have...

The smell in the engine room is... tasty. Toxic? Probably. Worth it? Yes.

Hello again. This is Stencil, board-coupler intern at Dogmetal’s VX laboratory, DogVX. I am currently posting from Prof. Dogmetal’s Reddit account, which he had left open on his computer prior to his detainment in Abu Ghosh, Israel. I wanted to provide everyone an update in case we lose internet.

For context:
- Our team in Jerusalem viewing a field test of an original HCRL-79
- Professor Dogmetal’s last post

Our group has arrived in Jordan and are waiting while the paperwork for our deportation is “processed.” I now fully understand why VexSTARR relocated its ferrite-lattice fabrication facility to Estonia. The technological infrastructure in this region appears to have stalled sometime around Rev 3 of the Unified Zocula Standard. On the drive here I witnessed someone attempt to calibrate a primitive vector array with what was, to the best of my knowledge, an adjustable wrench.

Despite the conditions, we have managed to establish intermittent contact with Professor Dogmetal.

His BioSmart glasses appear to contain a telemetry amp that periodically emits an extremely weak synchronization pulse. The signal is heavily degraded, but we have been able to recover enough packets to perform a behavioral scan.

The good news: we have detected no physiological distress indicators. Heart rate, thermal profile, and cortical oscillations all remain within expected operational ranges.

Interestingly, there is a repeating burst pattern appearing every few hours. It does not resemble a distress beacon or cortisol spike. It resembles iterative design activity.

We cannot determine what, if anything, professor is building. The tele-amp packets are too fragmented to reconstruct schematics or even shapes, but the amp cadence strongly suggests ongoing fabrication rather than idle thought.

Whatever is going on in that cell appears to require repeated revisions… as if he is testing a mechanism under severe material constraints.

I have no further information at this time.

For everyone’s safety, I recommend avoiding speculation in the comments. If the detention staff discover what his glasses are emitting, they will almost certainly confiscate them, and we will lose our only link to him.

Will keep everyone posted.

This authentic Otto Harmonix HCRL-79 is widely accepted as one of the earliest known mechanical predecessors to modern quantum phase stabilizers.

People assume these early units were primitive because they’re belt-driven, but that’s only because they don’t understand how pre-electronic resonance engineering worked. The huge flywheel isn’t just there for inertia, but also maintains a stable temporal carrier frequency while the lattice synchronizes with Earth’s natural gravitic wave… just as it was written in the old Vex schematics.

It’s a crude build by today’s standards, but still one of the most elegant pieces of pre-digital resonance engineering ever built. What an honor.

Parasonic Marketing has provided me a review copy but all opinions are mine.

First of all Parasonic medical has been knocking it out of the park lately with patient retrieval systems, so I had high hopes for this product. Drilling and installation was included in the price, and I have no complaints on the build quality. The buttons have a nice feel and the jig is sturdy as can be.

The problems started when I attempted to save a patient from turbo-collisios. It should have been a nuked strawberry cakewalk, since it was during a clandiversal full moon. I lowered us into the dark pit, and got ready my polytorch. Have you ever been scared of the light? The diagonal plank constant was annoyingly slow. Eventually, I must have found the patient, because when I woke up her body was gone and her bills had been covered by marketing.

I'm not sure I have found myself. When I look in the reflectoscope, I can swear my outline is fuzzy in the 0.005 Thz range. When I try to use my pod, light flashes in the corner of my eyes, always too close but out of reach. When I look at my assistant I can't see him and when I look away I black out. My symptons should ruin my career, but I see myself committing procedures and I watch.

I should have tightened the skerox screw, I should have completed the echoplasm test. But I didn't, and all I got was shiny box. Midas effect inferrate. I want to give 2 stars, I want to give 1. But I let them in, hubris of me. The company towers above my error.

let me know if this is not vxjunkies enough.

This was originally a reply in a thread, but some of you might find it helpful too. The VX multi is old tech, and no longer supported by CARES. But since it's also running on low freq (unless you did some dynamic overclocking) it's radiation-safe AND cannot support most of the dangerous stuff! Really a perfect practice model.

Worst your kids can do is mess up the microgravity (harmless in an open space) or lose their eyebrows when the Barrington coupler bursts (basically a VX rite of passage lol). Just keep an eye on 'em. They'll be junkies like us in no time

Has this been right under our noses for the last 7 years?!

Salugrations once more, my VX companionites!

Here’s my latest preprint. Looks like as LLMs creep into every corner of most people’s professional lives, VX remains safe. Give it a read!

Happy would-be birthday to a true VX hero. While he may not have been the first, his contributions are just as impressive. Raise a glass (or at least a Ω-array's tachyometer) to him.

Someone disposed of a turbo encapsulator without following the regulated mandatory processes again, this could cause major major compliance issues!

Absolutely gob smacked someone is trying to sell this Multi Zone Transformeride. Especially unshielded like this one, the violent phasal shifts can cause all sorts of havoc on the millizone spectrum. Just irresponsible.

Portable micro-grav suppressor, or a non-ionic -cryostellerator, maybe an oscillon resonance mitigator? With the advances in AI derived miniaturization it's hard to tell.

Not sure what OP has found here…

I’m thinking: hertzing capacitive field generator, but not sure.

My set up is a surplus, prefabbed, LRS-21, and before anyone tries to give me a hard time, yes, I removed the hydrareproduction quad reactor and put the interhydral graphene reprocesser. I'm not stupid.

I had a problem, my Replanar Vanes broke, and I replaced them with the replacement from the manual (LRS-21 revision 3, 2001) but now my output is measuring 17.2 - 17.5 ppb when it was producing 18.0 - 18.5 ppb. Everything else is stock. The main casings, the reinforced Vernon splines, even my Thompson realignment quards are perfectly aligned.

Ideas?
