Yeah, the book wasn't awful or anything, it was just...another fairly average book. Not really interested in the movie either.

@Broo TulsiGang 2024 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 idk that the movie added that in tbh, the book seemed like had socialist undertones and strong independent women that don't need no man

Well, my favorite books tend to be classic sci-fi. Asimov, Niven, Heinlein, that sort of thing. If I had to pick one absolute favorite, likely Asimov's Foundation series as a whole, since it's functionally one long book split into parts.

If I recall, it was originally published as a serial via magazines.

Have you even read Locke? <:ohsargon:451135765368274954>

John Locke

Foundation wasn't published in magazines

But pretty much everything about robots was

looks cool @M4Gunner

Challenger 2 is not powerful enough as main battle tank i.e. zero future proofing

It's fine if up against older Russian hardware in the Middle East

[mind you, latest Russian hardware is untested, so might actually work well against it too]

Ah. No, first part of Foundation was published in Astounding Science Fiction in May 1942.

Well, techincally, the second part. The very first part of the book was written later as a prologue.

👌

Anyone wanna talk about how communist economy works ?

it doesn't

discussion over

^

It makes everyone equal by making everyone poor

Yes but how is it bad though

Everyone get their needs

And everyone get welfare

The communist economy is quite interesting

The state controls everything and all the income goes to one place

very epic!

and the state also controls the prices of everything

I want to pay for my own kids. Not yours Commie

There are commissars managing everything

The state pays for it

Are you talking about a theoretical communist economy that might actually work in a post-scarity society, or are you talking about actual communist economies that have been attempted?

The State takes my money
