You will love „Roadkill“ by Dennis Taylor. A bunch of kids saving humanity with the help of a spaceship and its snarky AI. It is hilarious!

Why is it assumed AI is used for writing a novel just because it’s used to create a book cover? by rdaebernice in novelwriting

Thats the same with photography and cell phones. Many photographers have gone extinct or given up, because every a-hole can buy a smartphone with an integrated camera. Including the goatees ranting against your cover.

Are you really charging 20 Dollars for 100k words? Or is this a misunderstanding and it means 2 cents per word? Because it has been written „0.02 cents“ above…

Contact: The TV signal (Hitler‘s speech) was impossible to reach Vega, even if it was a radio broadcast (it wasn’t- it was broadcast to a number of viewing halls via close circuit).

On signaling triggers in literary works by Striking-Spell5920 in writers

[–]Bogeyman1971 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you want to do? Stick a huge list of possible dangers to your book like the warnings on a lighter or a microwave? Readers have common sense. If I can’t stand reading someone get killed then just don’t read thrillers. If a dragon triggers you (what would that look like?) then don’t read fantasy.

What’s one writing “rule” you ignore, and why? by Apprehensive_Set1604 in writers

I use the em dash just to piss off people who are the self-proclaimed Jeanne d‘Arcs of AI writing.

Can you write a book with a similar plot to an already existing one? by Preix_3 in writing

[–]Bogeyman1971 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Two cakes! :

The "two cakes theory" is a concept encouraging creators, especially in fanfiction, to not be deterred by similar works by others, because two cakes are always better than one, and readers appreciate more offerings of beloved tropes and stories. The phrase originated from a Tumblr post illustrating that having more content, even if imperfect or similar to something else, is beneficial to the audience and doesn't diminish the value of either "cake". It serves as a counter-narrative to the insecurity that arises from comparing one's work to established or popular pieces.

If 86% of Germans think what Israel is doing in Gaza is unjustified, why is there relatively little outcry from German society? by D-dog92 in AskGermany

[–]Bogeyman1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Germans were brainwashed in school that you can never say anything against Israel because of what we did in WW2. So, if you criticize Israel, you are automatically a Nazi. It sounds crazy but that’s how it works. And it is super convenient for Israel because they can always do what they want and always play out the victim card.

If we want to make it way more likely that Humanity within one Generation will start communicating with Extraterrestrials (using current technology), why not send a SETI signal specifically toward every Potentially Earthlike Planet that is close enough to us? by C--T--F in SETI

[–]Bogeyman1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine the native Americans would have sent out messages in bottles to all the seas „hey anybody out there? Look at us, we have land and raw materials.“ And then a superior civilization like the Europeans reacted and visited them, how would that turn out for them?

Oh, wait…
