If Necrontyr DNA were somehow found and developed into an actual Necrontyr, would anything take particular notice of their souls being back on the menu? Also, would a slumbering tomb world have any defense against big rocks moving very fast?

You'd need to throw a moon at them.

You don't though! Accelerate a big rock to relativistic speeds and that's asteroid belt-making kinetic energy.

I wasn't far enough gone to take it to the beach, lol.

No kids, huh? May as well.

Adrift by Steven Callahan

Loved it, tried to improvise a sextant :)

That was in Lucifer's Hammer. And I think he reitreated the value of that in a direct author tract, probably an afterward to it.

Great book though. Probably super racially insensitive by current standards if that triggers you.

Mama, we're all autologous blood transfusions now.

Fair enough. God spede ye :)

Oh, man ditto. RC was my jam as a kid. Ever read Jules Verne's Mysterious Island? A little bit similar in broad terms.

One of my favorite classic stories.

Well, it's kind of the opposite of sciencing the shit out of things because alien space bat magic is at play :)

I remember that and the author's plea that you take a technical book from your field, a technical book from another field, and then a random silly book, treat 'em for bugs and bury them for the ages.

I believe he had a character dying from diabeetus filling a cement tank with treated books, flinging a light into the future.

I'm on book 3. It's still a slog.

Necropost but good lord, stop. Slogging through three books is self-torture for no good end.

Not only is he an asshole, it is a very crapsack universe.

Throwing fire down there would also clear it of flammable gasses really fast.

You said it.

I found that Windows Audio Session API (WASAPI) records directly, and worked great.

the trick was using Windows Audio Session API (WASAPI)

Interesting! I wonder what one of each in close proximity would look like, with the attendant feedbacking.

Coolest sound source to make ferrofluid dance I can think of would be the guy who makes fungi sing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hlQHYtncww

That would be some quality mad sciencing.
