The ! makes this even higher than it looks, since it's not 99, it's a factorial now, so "crazy" is definitely apt.

Neat, I didn't know that, but I'm gonna watch one of those lore videos on YouTube since the two-front war sounds cool, thanks for letting me know.

I think forerunners and ancient humans are separate species that fought a war and the humans lost it.

Fair point, it is more corporatocracy, but I feel like that's just the natural endpoint of unchecked capitalism's continuous drive for the growth of profits, which is why 'managed capitalism' is a core part of many ideologies, as they believe the ability to generate wealth is valuable, but without being limited it also brings a great deal of downsides.

I'm surprised no one commented this since it started with ugly insults.

Arguably, only tech like the replicators as has already been mentioned would be useful, because from the like couple episodes of Star Trek shows I've seen, the human ships/shields/weapons always are way worse than whichever alien group is in the episode that time, which is weird how Star Fleet has so many civilisations tech but it seems like garbage compared to everyone new they encounter.

I think in Star Trek a civilisation has to invent warp tech before it's legal for other planets/species to interact with them. I assume Federation/Star Fleet tech would largely count as human because Earth/Humans are part of it, but it could also only count Human-specific tech in regards to the system in this.

It's how the modern world is, capitalism has companies make decisions which extract all its value as short-term record profits to please shareholders, even if it slowly kills the company. Same reason for climate change and stuff not being properly addressed, it's beneficial in the short-term not to add regulations which will improve things long-term, even if it results in the destruction of ecosystems or even makes parts or all of the planet uninhabitable.

No, 1,800 points is how many he spent, he had 5,670, he spent 1,800 and so now has 3,870 points remaining.

One of the schools I went to had barbed wire on top of the walls, so you're not wrong.

I think the whole improving the lives of the other half was just self-righteous stuff he came up with, it was really about proving to his dead people that he was correct and they should have listened to him and killed half the population.

I do think it did slightly harm the martial arts part of the novel though since he could just do that, anyway, ignore me, I just like talking about Nano Machine.

Out of all the stuff in Nano Machine, I think the wildest was how every time he found like a strong material like sapphire or whatever, it would just modify his body to make him physically stronger than it, like that's the key thing I think nano machine is better at than even some stuff in more advanced sci-fi stories

I think in this it was meant to be 'flaws' as in the random nature of the pogo stick's jump height being a flaw, which these are without.

I have to assume it was made by a Group of Interest which is being redacted or something, though I think it would be hilarious if they just redacted an entirely normal brand

Because of the word 'carriers' I think these were those things from the Winter soldier movie, the like AI helicarriers that kill anyone they select as a target. I could be wildly off though I do not remember that movie.

Tau-5 had the skeleton key to get that Ghost person from shield, I think this is a different group on this mission so they don't have it.

My first time seeing the name I use in a story was a very strange experience, a very sad chapter too.

I think they mean 1/3 God (mother) + 1/3 Human (father) + 1/3 God (self) = 2/3 God 1/3 Human? I never understood it, and assumed it should be half/half but Gilgamesh is a special little freak and so got 2/3 and 1/3.

The dragon thing from Shang-Chi probably
