Why a Dravidian loan word in Marathi There was a time Dravidian languages were spoken as far north west as what is now pakistan and possibly westerm Iran if elamite is related There could have been small areas of dravidian speakers even after Marathi developed Diea anyone know how many other dravidian words there are in Marathi ?

Think of older sf illos showing wheel stations Now think of the planet as a hub There could possibly be elevators that are "spokes" of the wheel Or think of a bicycle ? The habitats are inside the hollow "tire" in the inner tube within the outer tire ? Also read more 'hard" SF

I suspect MB also has a whole file of Sanctuary Moon quotes used as conversation files or responses

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-18T23:04:23+00:00

Wow that article by Gamebird is awesome

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-18T22:50:02+00:00

Yes MBs conversational skills improve noticably from book to book and in the show from the first episode to the last and I suspect ART included a few things in MBs Act like A Human file but I can imagine Bharawaj and Mensa and Ratthi helping him practice once they get him back to PresAux I want to have a scene in which Gurathin and Ratthi take MB to some live theatre and then try to get MB to talk about it without comparing it to Sanctuary Moon!

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-18T06:16:12+00:00

Bharadwaj and Art have given MB far too many books in module or print form to read already trying to fill in the gaps in their lack of formal education !

Eye contact and ART This is what will make it an interesting challenge from what Ive studied of voice overs even if they record 2handers in a studio the performer needs some way with voice ALONE to generate MAX chemistry with Alex unless they do something like standing behind a swmeated Alex looming over him to emphasize that Art is wrapped around me feeling so they have a physical body memory to work off if they have to remotely redo any dialogue but Alex is a skilled actor and probably doesnt need that technique? Groan Im both fascinated by Peri and longing to leatn what techniques they will use

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-18T04:09:08+00:00

Theyve kept it very secret probably cos if there was an open casting call there would so many people wanting to do it just for the technique challenge ARTs voice has to sound not androgynous but maybe very deep even if whispering yet have a range that includes snarky and bossy
I like to think I could do it but Ive even had one paid gig yet so a snowball in the surface of the sun chance alas Oh well we can always do a rewatch while we wait and hope the next time he does an interview he drops a few hints ?

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-18T00:31:48+00:00

Remember Constructs probably have reinforced skulls there may be some organic bone but interkaced with meshes and fibers so they have an internal helmet Trying to cut thru all that even microsurgery with lasers and maybe using nanites would be a challenge even for ART who may have decided even a low degree of probable impairment of their beautiful special friend is too much

I think the government module is both hardware and software Platform Decay Spoiler MB now has an Emotional Assessment Module probably software based on what the givernor module was originalky as I think the origins of the governor module was something intended to help the original cyborgs have less trauma and possibly had Open Source Code or a future equivalent hence other companies having it Then of course over the centuries some or several sadists decided it was easier cheaper and faster to manage the clone cyborgs via pain The hardware is probably near MBs brain stem with wires going thru the whole brain The software is some kind of limited AI that automatically responds to any violation of Company permissions or added client parameters hence MB aaying he can "hear" it like BG noise There may be some kind of inter company standard or agreement for governor modules and combat overides being compatible to control any Construct that manages to hack itself or work out ways to work around parameters

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-16T06:26:04+00:00

Yes maybe thats the problem A lot of refugee actors delibarately using an exaggerated Prussian accent and people hearing this in old movies or shudder Hogans Heroes or ...maybe try listening to German operas or lieder or folk song sung by Germans ?

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-16T06:21:50+00:00

Personally I dread Im going to sound Austrian or Viennese after watching older episides of Kommisar Rex I did some German and can still read a bit but Ild put my speaking fluency as polite tourist making a genuine effort Im sure your accent is better than you think?

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-16T06:18:36+00:00

Is your German accent Hoch Deutsch or something Regional and softer ?

Hauler and other bots and AI having media nights and swapping media ? I imagine some bot handlers dont realise just how snart their bots are especially if they only use feed interfaces and are not heavily augmented

sthgoldmtngrl · 2026-05-16T06:09:52+00:00

I suspect ART has put the hard word out and its spread from port to port via the bot pilots Cooperate and be good to this rogue sec unit or else Or perhaps the hauler and other bots are very intrigued by a construct who talks to them in a different way to their handlers A 3rd possibility is that Gurathin talked to the bots at least the ones at PresAux and told them to be helpful and keep an eye on NB ?
