Looks like you're moving on up. Pretty good story. Now, where did that founder race come from?

@@Erin-ThorIt’s like the AI thinks everyone has to be Shakespeare. You know?

THAT'S it! i never go to kvatch because then my gameplay gets interrupted by random combat, so i hardly interact with him, couldn't place the voice despite the bells it rang.

Thank you! I knew I'd heard that voice in one Bethesda game or another, but couldn't quite place it!

@@Iluvantir I recognized it right away. The AI makes the tone shift weirdly sometimes but it is unmistakable

Or that the far digits of pi randomness ceased being random and instead became a meaningful code for…

@@vanguard9067 pi randomness? They're fixed, not random.

@@RichardStrong86 I am probably using a too esoteric and perhaps little understood property of pi, the distribution of digits is thought to be random. My point is if that were not true, that the digits ceased being a random distribution at some unthinkably large number of decimal places, then the numbers thereafter could indeed represent information. Information available only to those species sufficiently advanced to be able to calculate pi to that number of decimal places.

Right I agree with this and have found this channel has usually been pretty good at that only listened to 5 or 6 though

Glad you liked it, thank you!

you might like the novel series Pip & Flinx Adventures. probably not the first book called for love of mother-not (as it stays entirely on the planet moth and the stakes are lower) rather the later books like the The Tar-Aiym Krang, Orphan Star, maybe even Bloodhype (Pip and Flinx play a sort of side character roll in bloodhype though they if you know the series then you pick up that Flinx is playing an unspoken role in the background maybe even manipulating some events)

I was a huge fan of Foster and love his Pip 7 flinx series. I had every boo AD Foster ever. Met him and many other earlier authors back in the 60's and 70's .

I have a story written that slots in this one neatly, it's titled the lAST REVELATION, IT'S JUST SITTING ON MY COMPUTER waiting for me to do somethingwithit, I lack the computer skills to create the back ground.

@@davidnewland2556Awesome, David. And I know the feeling. In the 1970s, I had a story idea involving planetary atmospheres and terraforming. To understand more about how that works, I needed to know calculus. The first 2 books I bought on calculus were for beginners, but they were *_horrible._* They were written for math PhDs!!! ...but for first year students. Some mathematicians are horrible at interpersonal skills (communication, teaching). Then, I found a book called, *_Calculus Made Easy._* This was during the early 1980s, when there were dozens of "Made Easy" books on the market. However, I was shocked when I saw that the book was first published in 1910. And it had been republished over a dozen times even then. That book was excellent. Written by an engineer who knew, even then, that mathematicians were lousy at communication. I was a self-taught computer programmer and software engineer. Even though I later got a college degree, I learned far more *_before_* college, on my own with carefully selected books. I suspect you could easily find a book to give you an easy overview of the topic, and from there use the correct ideas to weave your backstory. Hope this helps. And if you're interested, you can find some of my fiction for free at TharsisHighlands [dot] WordPress [dot] com. Look for the "free" link near the bottom. 😎♥✝🇺🇸💯

thank you so much! welcome!

Thanks for listening

It maybe doesn't, and is just being vague. It mentions that Xyrath is impossibly old by the standards of her species at the end, suggesting that maybe the project that the ancient species never finished does somehow effect how entropy works. There's actually no reason why entropy needs to work the way it does... It's just that most ways of "fixing" entropy, assuming you had the means to alter the fundamental laws of nature, would also probably break the structure of everything as we know it. So how an alteration to entropy would translate to perpetually maintaining biology as we know it is of course a question. Fun bit of info: Scientists recently discovered that you actually can draw power from the oscillations of Brownian motion. Whiiiiiiich might suggest that if you could alter the laws of the universe to allow and create perpetual motion events on a small enough scale, it might not break things while still being possible to harvest. I mean, that's kinda the idea behind the concept of harvesting vacuum energy. If you figured out how to harvest the buzz of the vacuum, you could in theory put the energy to the work decreasing entropy. That's a big if, of course... But it doesn't seem as implausible once you realize that stars are not believed to actually have enough heat and pressure to fuse matter, and so they rely on large quantities of matter and quantum tunneling to get the job done. Advanced enough science might actually provide some incredibly niche way to harness energy from a limitless source, and from there it just becomes a matter of using it to "fight" entropy. It's such a big idea though, that trying to envision the logistics of doing so on a galactic scale makes my head hurt.

The endless march of entropy, destruction itself is not something to be cured or a glitch in the system. It's a feature.😂

Glad you think so!

Welcome aboard!

@@StarboundHFY aye aye Captain

the term "term" is a human term, and they wouldn't know of such a thing.

@@CrowbornChaos no... "term" almost certainly has an alien equivalent. "homo sapiens" on the other hand is more akin to a proper name and not something that could be known.

@@DarkHorseSki It is foolish to assume there would be any equivalent in among aliens. Language is a purely human invention, and thus, it's pragmatisms are entirely made up by us. there for any word in language would not be something they know. So no matter what term or word is used, it's all human made, there for, by your own logic, it cannot be made sense of by alien beings.

yeah, all the stories here are original!
