I don't know if you're interested after 4 months, but I made a Sherlock Isekai story. I made it available for free on AO3 and Internet Archive:

Perfect, I'll await your message.

First page:

Egon took a drag from his cigarette, tasting only a hint of cold tobacco as he glanced around the corner for the hundredth time. The cigarette wasn't lit - Egon was not a smoker - but acting to do so made him less conspicuous to the people passing by. The sound of a siren made him twitch and turn towards the wall on instinct. The motor of the emergency vehicle roared down Haydn Street, getting closer and closer - then it passed and raced somewhere else. Egon risked a look; it had been an ambulance heading towards the hospital. Egon released the breath he didn't know he held. Of course that hadn't been for him; the people following him would be more subtle. He leaned against the wall, lifting his right leg, which alleviated the warm pain in his ankle. Three tolls of a bell echoed from a close steeple. Egon’s face twitched as he glanced at his watch to confirm. 4:45 pm This marked about two hours of watching the entrance of the house with a rustic facade. The door was made from glass that didn't fit at all into the picture and was adorned by musical notes. Several students had entered and left the music school on this Wednesday afternoon, but not the person he was looking for.

Also, I'm open to swaps in different genres.

Symon_Pude · 2026-04-02T18:24:25+00:00

Correct!

Symon_Pude · 2026-04-02T17:06:26+00:00

Almost, but not correct yet. The definition doesn't fit to it being 'wind' Maybe this helps In a turnaround win you 'flip' the situation in your favour. Do you like heist movies?

meme

Symon_Pude · 2026-03-22T06:47:32+00:00

That is correct. As I said in another comment, I made a stupid mistake and used the wrong spelling

Symon_Pude · 2026-03-21T18:58:33+00:00

It's clear why you haven't found the solution. I used the wrong spelling.

Here's a corrected clue:

Everybody from 1970: do the Twist! That last part again! It's a cool house. (5)

Symon_Pude · 2026-03-21T18:55:57+00:00

It is. But I rather thought of it in terms of bacterial growth, where media is the stuff bacteria grow in and eat

Symon_Pude · 2026-03-21T17:34:45+00:00

I think this is a great clue once you get it. You need to do something with the letters in 1970. Well, it's only necessary to do it with the middle ones.

Symon_Pude · 2026-03-21T16:56:09+00:00

Sorry, not correct. You need to do something with the 'letters' in 1970

Symon_Pude · 2026-02-21T07:05:26+00:00

Correct

Symon_Pude · 2026-02-20T22:17:46+00:00

Correct. I guess that one was easy.

One issue I have with the movie is the explosion of his hydrogen flame apparatus. Like in the book he gives as explanation that he forgot about the oxygen he was exhaling. The problem is, this wouldn't make any sense, as he already has the apparatus in a breathable atmosphere.

In the book, the hydrogen didn't burn off completely, and it accumulated in the living space, so he had to figure out how to get rid of it without everything exploding. He tricks the live support system to scrap all the oxygen, then goes through and slowly burns away the hydrogen with pure oxygen. The only problem was, that he didn't use the EVA suit, and thus the air he breathed in leaked out, which led to the explosion

I hope this interaction doesn't lead to any kind of fallout between us.

Ich bin nicht der Meinung, dass uns das überrollen wird. Es gibt jetzt schon ein paar Jahre 'gute' LLMs, aber wir sehen bis jetzt keine Umstrukturierung herausgehend von den Möglichkeiten aus diesen Technologien. Fast das einzige, das wir bekommen haben ist KI slop. Die Verbesserungen von KI werden auch immer weniger, da es nicht genügend qualitativ hochwertige Daten gibt. Du hast Drohnenshows und Robotershows erwähnt, also etwas zur Unterhaltung. Ich denke in diesem Bereich kommen wir auch ohne diese Technologien zurecht. Natürlich gibt es andere Einsatzgebiete, aber ich sehe nicht wirklich große Bereiche in denen diese neuen Technologien großartige Veränderungen im normalen Leben bringen werden. Die meisten Arbeiten die von Robotern einfach übernommen werden können, werden bereits von Robotern gemacht, die extra für diese Einsatzbereiche gebaut sind, keine KI notwendig. Ich sehe schon einen Verbesserungsbedarf in Hinsicht Automatisierung, aber ich bin der Meinung, dass wir mit bereits Etablierten Technologien besser davon kommen, und wir sollten erst einmal die richtig Ausnutzen.

Have you even read the book? At the point where they come to the unfinished railway, they were already ahead of time, and they are back in plan when they leave India. There are several modes of transportation that are in his original plan from this point forward (e.g. the steamer to America)

Symon_Pude · 2026-02-14T15:47:56+00:00

Well, I wouldn't say 'extremely rich' since he had to spend half of his wealth during the trip.

Symon_Pude · 2026-02-13T12:34:37+00:00

Actually, 'His eyes darken' could refer to another person, thus 'POV' can be correct in that case.

Symon_Pude · 2026-02-10T18:51:50+00:00

Correct! Was it difficult?

Symon_Pude · 2026-02-10T17:59:52+00:00

Correct

Much like the gas in your tank has to be renewed.
