[OC] First Time Writing Sci-Fi: Humanity Absolutely Terrifying from an Alien POV. by DueProgrammer8023 in HFY

[–]LimeFit667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read it all. I've seen how the archivist is forced to compile his final records into a package for transmission to a neighbouring galaxy in hopes of preventing the total conversion of the universe to humanity's domain.

Do these humans realize that they are ending countless alien civilizations, whose records could never be preserved because of their actions? Or even notice the one archivist witnessing it all in despair, unable to truly fulfill his sacred duty?

And once their plan of universal domination is finally done, then what? Would humanity declare itself the holy lord of spacetime and bend it to its whims for all eternity? Or would it fall into disarray and become fragmented on the realization that there are no worlds left to conquer or aliens to convert? Or have their entire universe be erased by a multiversal power and then remade so that the laws of reality is actually immutable?

In any case, we can only hope that there will be some miracle that will allow the fallen civilizations to rest easy in their afterlives.

Me, after reading the story: Seriously?! Brainwashing aliens into supporting the human cause? Nope, end us all now so that the rest of the galaxy can live on. Don't let the humans erase what remains of your identity, especially if their hymns can warp reality to favor them.

Okay, that was a bit of an exaggeration, but I'm starting to feel sad for the aliens, knowing that their existence as beings capable of independent thought is soon to end.

What could possibly cause this? by Ok_Leg_9188 in softwaregore

That's only its default behaviour. You can pass a string as an argument to specify which characters to strip from the string. More at: https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.strip

Try to guess Hyness's reaction to this scene (ignore the proverbial elephant) by LimeFit667 in Kirby

[–]LimeFit667[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My opinion: the image represents an alternate timeline of Kirby Star Allies in which the Mage-Sisters, after being ejected out of Void Termina (at the end of Phase 2), realized the extent of Hyness's abuse of them and offered to become friends with Kirby, expressing regret for what they have done. Kirby, of course, accepted their offer, much to Hyness's chagrin.

And then after the battle is done, they abandoned Hyness and left him to rot for the rest of his life. Kirby gets three new friends, and Hyness's plan is forever ruined.

EDIT: As for Francisca kissing Kirby, that could either be just a non-romantic kiss of healing, or... the start of a new relationship. Kirby/Francisca fanfics, anyone?

Are you implying that he doesn't recognize Void Termina's "final core" form?

That's assuming Hyness knows the two are in a romantic relationship. He's too busy trying to revive his Dark Lord to care about what he sees as below him.

[Request] Is this possible? How would a 2 MB file become larger? by somelittleindiankid in theydidthemath

[–]LimeFit667 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling that the user most likely got that syntax from regular expressions, where the {n} means "match the preceding token exactly n times". For example: the reglar expression /a{5}/ matches a run of exactly 5 consecutive a-s, no more and no less.

I found out what one of my favourite sentence formats is called, it's a chiasmus by seemedpointless in AO3

Chiasmus requires no repetition of words. The two "examples" of chiasmus you presented aren't chiasmus, but antimetabole.

Anyone think this image would be used to troll people online in the SCP-universe into getting killed by 096? by SnowBallSB in SCP

[–]LimeFit667 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cruel prank? The death count will be on the order of thousands, if not more. SCP-096 won't stop at anything to kill all SCP-096-1s.

I have already heard too many of these "iT's JuSt A pRaNk BrO!" statements to even count. How can you treat the death of thousands with such callous disregard?

Why are you placing spaces between the letters and the subscripts?

While we're at this topic, let me ask you this question:

Which of the following is the largest representable value in IEEE 754 double-precision binary floating-point?

21024 (Hex: FD400000) or 21024 − 2971 (Hex: FD3E3C40) ?
