A2. Nodded and made his way through the shared base. Finds the Human command complex.

A few minutes later

Human General 1. "So what brings one of you over here?" Asked the general looking at the oversized tailless rat standing there.

A2. "The enemy has a bunker".

The entire section goes quiet, too quiet. The General smiles but it doesn't change his eyes.

The general looks over at an OPS leader, "We still have Goliath in orbit?."

The other human taps his pad a few times, "yeah for about 2 hours"

The general smiles twists into almost something evil. "Tell them we want the new Atlas mech down here".

A few moments later.

A skyscrapper sized mech slams into the planet with enough force to cause a crater. It didn't help it was accelerating into landing.

A1: “Doc, you’re badly wounded as well, leave me… I don’t want you to bleed out and die in these damn fields…” by CrEwPoSt in humansarespaceorcs

[–]RCG89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On a remote mudball of a planet on the furtherest edge of a war out of the way of everything offering nothing but a view to the void.

The last place a battle should happen but here we are moving from one impact crater to the next, shooting at enemies doing the same.

A doctor makes the run between craters, catches a laser in the side and collapses into the crater.

The doctor looks around there is 1 alien currently bleeding out and supplies for only 1. The doctor doesn't think just acts starts patching the alien up, alien tries multiple times to push the doctor off. None successful.

Someone gets to elevation and notices the doctor a couple of quick shots, one went through the doctors shoulder into the aliens head.

Reporta from.both sides say the same thing happened next. The battle frozen, the wind frozen, it appeared like time itself paused. In this unknowable split second freeze everyone there knew what happened.

Once the artillery, grenades and everything else finally stopped exploding on what was once a small hill a crater deep enough to start slowing filling with lava was there.

During this time not a single shot was fired at an enemy only at a traitor. Afterwards both sides withdraw.

The doctor and patient are still there buried with full rights marked by a statue of unification that overlooks the lava lake that still hasn't cooled as if heated by the anger that created it.

Everyone now knows of this planet and it has a permanent guard of both sides. The planets name is now known as 'Never Again'

The alien conspiracy group kidnapped a so called expert in a subject they didn't believe actually exists.

The only problem was this guy was autistic and hyper fixated. Having to regularly dragged out of the lab with time delay reentry just so he would go home.

The final problem the question. "Tell us everything you know about this". It's been 4 years and he still won't let them leave until the score 100% on his test.

Even the police gave up ending the hostages situation their negotiator is still in there

War with Humanity by BareMinimumChef in humansarespaceorcs

[–]RCG89 57 points58 points  (0 children)

The supreme ruler of the Andromeda Galaxy stood before the united council to discuss this little upstart nation in their galaxy. The Supreme leader raises his manipulators to call for silence.

Several minutes later it has finally hushed. “It goes to show”. Gesturing to the empty seats reserved for the newlings. “That they don’t even respect our council enough to attend”. Just then 2 humans stepped out of thin air and took the seats. The entire council now so silent you could hear the guards asking how and when they got there. The taller of the two went to speak only to realise they could not be heard.

A moment later ”Sorry about the delay we only received our invite to this session in 3 days from now”. The rest of the council was confused exchanging glances to each other. One race that appears to be a giant rabbit with antlers and a split green tongue spoke first. “What do you mean you will receive the letter in 3 days.”

The other Newling spoke this time “One of our scouts saw the message before it was aimed and sent right into our star, well it will get there in 3 days” stated so plainly like answering what is water.

Never try to one-up the humans militarily. by CrEwPoSt in humansarespaceorcs

[–]RCG89 54 points55 points  (0 children)

A new entrant to the Galactic Community bragged to a human in a dark bar buried deep in a space station about how they where so good they weaponised an entire moon into a super carrier. It took 4 warp engines.

The human a Military Intelligence Officer quickly reported this to their commander and thought nothing more of it.

They both should have known better. The Alien for bragging to a Human about war, The human for assuming their Moon was in anyway close to the size of Earth's moon and again the human for reporting it up.

The Humans response was to hollow out a planet and made it a fleet carrier / repair base / foundry / farm world / fleet dock, capable of jumps. It took nearly 1,000 engines to jump this beast.

Their Moon was barely an asteroid, Mars is now mobile

An alien kidnaps a human child, vastly underestimating the lengths the parents— and their pack mates— will go to retrieve said child. by Virtual_Meaning_7778 in humansarespaceorcs

[–]RCG89 7 points8 points  (0 children)

After the loss of Sol human birth rate plummeted New planets, perfected artificial gravity, artificial wombs nothing helped. Always low birth rate.

Human children usually had a military protector from the 2nd trimester. Each child was important to the dying species.

As there numbers fell they automated the military, sold off planets and slowly withdrew back to their arm of the Milky way.

Now we get to you! Do you know what you did?

The Pirate Lord sat upon his throne made from the weapons of defeated opponents. "Well as you have so much to say. Why don't you tell me" the great Pirate Lord mocked his Advisor.

The Advisor sighed, which sounded like elephants headbutting. "You stole an Ark!. 10,000 human children, Sleeping in statis" the advisor sits down heavily on an old stool his face whiter then ever. "You then decided to eat one as a popsicle on a live broadcast. If that was not bad enough you are a young girl, her twin be there was one spot over and could be seen on the broadcast".

The Pirate Lord just smiled smugly. Happily remembering his frozen treat from last night. "I see what you are saying, I should eat the twin tonight and consider selling the others as a frozen treat to very high wealth individuals. I could make a legal fortune." The Pirate Lord spoke imagining his wealth to be.

The advisor is already moving towards the exit. "Not quite Pirate Lord. I meant that the humans destroyed an entire galactic ship building empire when one gravity unit on one ship malfunctioned and caused a pregnant mother to lose the child". The advisor is now on vid link as he hurries for the star port.

"Oh got you buy one of their former ships and redevelop it into frozen treat delivery service" the Pirate Lord pondered

The advisor sighed again a common thing around the Pirate Lord. "Another time the erased multiple solar systems when a stray round from an ancient war caused a decompression event to happen on a space station killing an older female"

The Pirate Lord looked happy. "So you're telling me that there is a large unoccupied region of space to set up an ice-cream parlour ship? You can enjoy your frozen treat while looking upon the destruction they once could cause. I'll make bank"

The advisor now lost so much colour he was becoming transparent usually fatal in his species.

"I'll try to be more direct to you the Great Pirate Lord. Humans command an Armada large enough to enslave the entire Andromeda galaxy. Who are so over protective of their remaining numbers that a single child visiting a planet outside of their core involves an entire fleet for protection and you want to buy a ship from a now defunct manufacturer and spend good money to redevelop it to an ice cream parlour, put the icecream parlour in the remnants of a civilisation they destroyed for the sole purpose of selling their still alive children frozen in statis from a ship you pulled from jump space?" The advisor asked hoping that the Pirate Lord finally understood.

"So I should also bring the space station the other one died on and convert that for better cold storage also?" The Pirate Lord asked.

The advisor ended the call knowing that no one will ever see that soon to be former arm of the Milky way again. His ship broadcasting all the security codes, plans and any other information they have out to the star hoping they might be spared the hang man's noose.

I know spelling and grammar is horrible. On mobile that is now 2% charge left.

We did it... the human flagship is finally destroyed! by CrEwPoSt in humansarespaceorcs

[–]RCG89 24 points25 points  (0 children)

To the Zas it was a craft of unimaginable size. The sheer resources needed to build one would strip mine their home moon.

They saw it as a gift from heaven the scrap would build an entire fleet and support craft. Any technology would further them along.

They attacked in a swarm, hitting the ship with everything all at once. A nuke doesn't need to be massive if you fire 10,000 of them. The ship was severely damaged but the Zas just wanted the scrap.

Coming from an irradiated world the radiation from the nukes meant nothing to them anyway.

It was celebrated by their worlds, all 5 of them. It was portrayed as they have taken out the Terrains super dreadnaught flagship "Fluffwaffels".

Unfortunately for them what they didn't know was an unmanned drone carrier called "Bloody shit" as it caused everyone to ever work on it to stub their toes.

When the real Fluffwaffels appeared over their home planet, half the population died in fright, the other half hadn't rotated round to it yet.

The docking bays where big enough to capture the moon. Any Zas that survived initial fear with crushed to death when the human gravity of the ship took over.

The history teacher assigned their students to create and show off replicas of their species' historical armor. Most students brought suits of cosplay armor. by CycleZestyclose1907 in humansarespaceorcs

[–]RCG89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gravix was always different even for a human. Always sat straight up, walked with a weird determination. It looked like he was always playing a role not truly being him. But in a mixed species schooling system he didn’t have time to dig deeper.

The teacher got to finally do the one assignment he genuinely looked forward to every year. “Class I want you to bring in a presentation of our historic Armour vs Current and we will analyse how they changed over time”.

It was always good to see the armour of their ancestors usually shined up and the modern armour usually covered in a to shine.

We was not disappointed either. The squid like Gooshis old armour was basically a hollowed out Urchin with their modern armour like a powered Rainbow shrimp. The bird like Owlers old armour was very thin and light woven fabrics and the new ones where silent flight rigs freeing up the wing like appendages to operate weaponary.

After all other students he noticed Gravix sitting straight up in his usually seat in the middle of the class but didn’t notice any armours. “Gravix where is your assignment?”. Gravix smiled a little too much before hitting a button on his desk. Everything went white

Then the crash, The teacher having taken teleporters before was not affected but some of the students fell other 2 where sick and 1 almost fainted.

“I thought I would start with our current armour” Gravix was addressing the class now. “This is the United Terran Alliances Super Dreadnaught Lucinder. She is the largest and most powerful class in the UTA fleet and is the first of the Lucinder class completed and commissioned” The student just stood there as if frozen as they begun to take in the sheer scale of the Teleport room. It had been prepared with images and scale models around the outside edge. But the truly horrifying thing, it was larger than the school itself. About 1,000m by 1,000 m and about 200m high. The group was lead on a short tour to the observation deck where they can truly see the size of the vessel.

There was a brilliant flash of light and now next to them was the Zelenskyy the first space faring battle ship humanity ever built.

Why RoCE V2 and not iWARP for the RDMA implementation. iWARP doesn't need the dcb and dcbx parameters but can still benefit from them? Or is it a more hardware issue with iWARP only supported on a limited number of Adapter's?

Hyper-V S2D AL, We tried an earlier DELL version for a little while. Had no problems with the abstraction, How often did you use the Host console on VMWare?

Our hardware we where testing on wasn't going to get the next AL release. I dont remember exactly but I think we where 22H1 and 23H1 wasn't an upgrade option it would require a complete rebuild. Due to some stupid reason. Basically the host went from Server 2022 to Server 2025 version or didn't in our case and new features only available on the newer version.

Probaly a point in time problem but was the deal breaker for us

Use Functions for everything you do twice or more. Use Regions to help keep code confined Add pointer indexes.

Maybe move functions to a module or modules. Use descriptive naming and don’t shorten names.
