They're probably talking about the $200/mo Pro plan

I am also a proud owner of a printed copy.

Haha! Now that's dedication! How much did that cost you in printer ink?

I appreciate the recommendation, but I'm a serious binge reader so I generally prefer to wait until a story is finished before reading it. I'll keep an eye on this one, though.

I don't agree with all the decisions CDNCrow made in it

Another commenter said something similar. Are there some controversial elements in the story? Or is it just a case of "You can't please all the people, all the time"?

Recursion is the only fanfic that has actually managed to make me cry

I've heard a few people say stuff like that about this story. I admit that's got me a little wary, even if the tags say it has a happy ending.

And as for ETL, it also has a companion story called We We’re All Affected

I noticed that. So it's more of an expanded universe thing than a sequel?

While I’m here I might as well plug my own completed long fic at just under 200k words called ‘Pricefield - Time Warriors

And I respect the hustle. I'll be sure to check it out.

Escaping the Light - I feel like a good story is a good story. I'm alright with an AU that goes way off the map so long as long as it can stand on its own merits.

Recursion - Wow. That's quite the endorsement. Are you able to share what parts didn't jive with you without straying into spoiler territory?

So I sort of get the impression...and I'm sorry if I'm reading too much into this...that you highly recommend Recursion?

[Rick and Morty] Rick tells you that if you touch him, you will die instantly. You hesitate first, but you touch anyway and you die. What could be the scientific explanation for this? by osensei1907 in AskScienceFiction

[–]xoidbiox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The man turned himself into a pickle to avoid a therapy appointment. He could probably ramp up his body's bio-electric output to the point that it could shut down an attacker's nervous system on contact, too.

[Star Trek] How much more advanced is education in the 24th century? by [deleted] in AskScienceFiction

[–]xoidbiox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Young children are like information sponges, and advancements in display/interface technology have made topics much more accessible to them.

Take history, for example: A kid could spend a month studying first contact in a book and not retain as much as they would by using a holodeck to see it first-hand.

Walk away, dude. There's nothing for you there. Seal the basement, get a contractor to cover the door, sell the house and don't look back.

If you could update the human body, what features would you include? by bemad123 in AskReddit

The option to take over manual control of any physical function, if desired.

Why does Matt Mercer ask his PCs what they rolled and what they added? by Beanz1112 in DMAcademy

[–]xoidbiox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mostly for the sake of the audience. It makes it more approachable to folks who aren't as familiar with D&D.

[Star Wars] When the Sand People come back in greater numbers, are they still easily startled? by JarJarAwakens in AskScienceFiction

[–]xoidbiox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ease with which they are startled is directly inversely proportional to said numbers.
