I just thought it was blue because that's just what Cerenkov radiation really looks like, and it doesn't matter whether it's given off by reactors or revenants.

double nine posted:so what you're saying is that human-carrying rockets to mars will be akin to a submarine ... submerged in a swimming pool? More like you have a room with a double metal wall with water piped in between. You wouldn't need it all the time, it's literally a solar storm shelter sort of deal.

It's been a while since I've read the early books and short stories, but IIRC Protogen is specifically shown to have a corporate culture that strongly encourages voluntary elective neurosurgical procedures for key employees in order to improve their decisionmaking and maintain cross-functional team alignment on core organizational objectives. You have to start taking the corporate Prozac because if you don't you might end up on basic again, and it does make all the bullshit in your life easier to deal with. The corporate Prozac makes you a sociopath, but you don't care, because now you're a sociopath. It was true of all the scientists assigned to work on the protomolecule; stands to reason it applies to the security/PMC types as well.

showbiz_liz posted:Exactly. The history of humanity isn't mostly "look at these vast unclaimed riches... better distribute them equitably instead of free-for-all grabbing whatever I can possibly hold onto!" This ain't Star Trek. And even Trek had the Ma'quis being forcibly resettled, admittedly because of Cardassian imperialism, but the Federation was hardly without blame in all that.

Baronjutter posted:Federation: We strongly recommend not settling these planets, they're in a potentially disputed frontier region with a hostile power. Also we're a post scarcity utopia if you want to larp as frontier homesteaders we can set you up with a safer place to settle that won't have political implications in the future. haha gently caress well yeah fair enough, I'm mostly thinking of Sisko nuking entire ecosystems to prove a point tbh

Sandwich Anarchist posted:You like to do this alot in a sci fi tv show thread. Can you stop it? You don't need to signal over Star Trek lol I hate to break it to you but science fiction is highly loving political, as is this show. Tossing around the idea of genocide so casually normalizes it. You might not think it matters, but it adds up subconsciously over time, and changes how we think and respond to world events as individuals and, indeed as voters.

The Clowner posted:The cool thing about this show is that the characters are good and consistent and when they change their attitude/behavior/beliefs it's for a very legitimate reason, which I can't say for ~some~ shows and movies I wonder what James S. A. Corey collectively make of the Game of Thrones series, and what they would have done different. There's a pretty big connection there after all...
