I remember old cartoons used to riff on that design by making it a hamster wheel or the like. 😀 Would be quite fun, though. Set it up with a gyroscope to keep you centered in the middle while the rest of with rolls around you. Attraction idea for the theme park thread?
Ah, didn’t realize that musical organs were that popular. Yeah, I see them at estate sales periodically for pretty cheap. Even the pianos tend to be more popular at the sales. Now, if someone had a pipe organ…that would be a bit more difficult to sell and move 😛
Not exactly. The Sentinels are essentially robots from an alternate universe that think it’s their job to make sure planets’ resources are untouched. They’re fine if you explore (except on planets where they’ve gone haywire) but will attack if they see you doing anything else. If you keep at it and attack them, the alert level continues to climb until they bring out the big guns: giant mechs and robot dogs. In space, they’ll start with a squadron of fighters and escalate from there to a giant capital ship. You find out the lore by reading old logs left behind at crashed ships (usually destroyed by Sentinels) or abandoned buildings.
Speaking of, do we need a comic thread or do we not have enough discussion yet to warrant one?
Yep. It used to be easy to tell an AI voice from a human. Usually they were very monotonous. Now, it’s very difficult. On the phone, there are a few tell-tale signs, though, such as pauses at certain points. Eventually, they’ll get things to where we can’t tell the difference at all!
