    Thread: Superior Genemods Snapshot
Post: RE: Superior Genemods Snapshot

Being able to do that would be very much like being able to fork and remerge, but I wonder if abusing the ability could lead to lingering desynchronization.

Post: RE: World Anvil Cross-Pollination?

I came back to this thread wanting to add something about my experience with world anvil: I've had some success commissioning artists through the World Anvil discord.  It seems to have a very artistic...

Post: RE: World Anvil Cross-Pollination?

I'm glad I could make a positive contribution! I've been working on my setting 'Theoma' in World Anvil, although I'm loathe to link it as it's not really an Orion's Arm kind of setting. That is, u...

I'm still too scared to fully engage with this forum in even the restricted way I'd intended to, but I still admire this project.  Please be gentle if after reading this I seem to have suggested somet...

Post: RE: Dragon Transhumanist Inbound

I still think the reception I got here was abusive. That's why I haven't been more active. It's hard to read anything in depth when I feel like I was attacked in such a way, so I haven't contributed...

If the setting isn't necessarily what you want the future to be, why are you treating it so personally that I contemplated the ethics and civil rights implications of the models of cognition that the ...

Post: RE: Dragon Transhumanist Inbound

I really want a philosophical discussion ground. If talking about things is verboten what's the point of a forum? I didn't attack anything, I talked about stuff and my thoughts about stuff. How can...

Post: RE: Dragon Transhumanist Inbound

Whoa. That's harsh! I didn't know I was going to step across a landmine like that. If you see a hair trigger in that, then I see a hair trigger in you. That's really scary, man. I don't think I w...

I wrote six paragraphs here and lost them to a misclick when I was ready to post.  I cannot remember all of that content.  I think I need to remove the capability of my mouse to apply 'back' button pr...

    Thread: Thoughts on RKKV warning time
Post: RE: Thoughts on RKKV warning time

In this setting I think I would be stuck wanting to ascend in benevolent paranoia, wanting to be capable of protecting large modosophont civilizations, and I would probably be an annoying anti-transce...

Post: RE: Hypertalls

Could a ringworld be built in deep space?  Could it have a tower across its empty middle, reaching between opposing sides of the ring?  That seems to me like it would be the largest possible inhabitab...

I'm really glad to see this thread.  I'm worried that it won't be true, but for petty reasons unrelated to the strict technological limits of humanity.  It seems like there's some amount of struggle t...
