2019-01-11 11:29:43 UTC  

I wasn't too impressed, but I'm picky with my books.

2019-01-11 11:30:23 UTC

2019-01-11 11:32:24 UTC  

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 πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ 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

2019-01-11 11:33:53 UTC  

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.

2019-01-11 11:34:05 UTC  

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

2019-01-11 11:34:29 UTC  

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

2019-01-11 11:35:04 UTC  

John Locke

2019-01-11 11:35:11 UTC  

Foundation wasn't published in magazines

2019-01-11 11:35:22 UTC  

But pretty much everything about robots was

2019-01-11 11:35:24 UTC  

looks cool @M4Gunner

2019-01-11 11:36:58 UTC  

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

2019-01-11 11:37:34 UTC  

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

2019-01-11 11:38:51 UTC  

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

2019-01-11 11:39:01 UTC  

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

2019-01-11 11:39:47 UTC  

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