As biomech advanced the usage ethics turned to a near zero response. It was doubleplus inexpensive in terms of labour, resources, and production time to use a human brain with its already developed support system. To use chiptech cost more.

Foetal data collection was used extensively near the front lines. Easily cobbled together from warscrap a unit could be plus hidden near, or even behind lines, to collect a vast arraywise amount of data.

This unit was discovered nearly 7 decades post Conflict, dutywise collecting data with no uplink to receive the stream.

Today's first draft of chapter 23 (Ceiling) in #RSMarsNeededWomen is complete, with 21 characters in toot-length remaining. Took 1h 35m to write. Twisty feminist fiction. After revision, I'll publish it later in the usual thread.

Recenzje fantastyczne:
»[Recenzja] „Stalker. Długi Długi Rajd”, Piotr Abramik«

Naukowiec, przemierzając Zonę, przyjmuje pseudonim Sos, a na swej drodze spotyka jeszcze wiele innych mniej lub bardziej przyjaznych postaci i poznaje, niekiedy z bardzo bliskiej perspektywy, (nie)naturalne środowisko Czarnobylskiej Strefy Zamkniętej. W związku z tym „Stalker. Długi rajd” jest powieścią przygodową, w której co prawda trup może nie ściele się gęsto, lecz sama akcja jest wciągająca, a sceny dynamiczne, wypełnione wieloma intrygującymi zdarzeniami.

Frederick Pohl’s scifi novel A Plague of Pythons dates from 1962. A man is about to be executed but he has a defence - he was possessed at the time. But it’s not demons doing the possessing. Lots of paranoia and despair. Good book.

The Bees of Death by Robert Moore Williams is a 1949 sci-fi novel. It starts with a phoney psychic, charlatan and con-man gaining possession of a cannonball with strange powers. And there are bee-like monsters. A diverting alien invasion tale.

This is my "Moonslit airdrop in cooler tones", showing the intrepid man braving the skies of an alien world deeper in twilight.

This piece is a blued-out version of my painting "Rapture of the rings"; not sure how realistic such lighting would be out there, but it makes the scene so much more intimate and spacey.
