Re: Road to Hope
Its so interesting to see that the Kyanah would starve to death if they were a vegetarian and how they would be poorly if they eat human foods. To be fair, that's usually what happens if you try to eat alien foods. Lots of enzymes and biomolecules that your body either doesn't know what to do with,...

It seems that you are going for Defeated Humans. Imma just throw out the different scenarios for humans vs aliens in sci-fi: Destroyed Humans: Humans lose, and get destroyed. Not a single human lives, or if they do, they have been turned into livestock or mutated and contorted beyond recognition. T...

Re: Road to Hope
Kyanah are obligate carnivores, a fact which obviously influences their diet to a strong degree. Virtually all of their calories come from some form of meat, eggs, or other animal products; while some plant matter can be safely consumed, they derive little or no energy from it and would eventually s...

Re: Road to Hope
As previously mentioned, Kyanah don't seem to care about personal space and privacy amongst their own packs, and thus as far as they're concerned, they have enough living space if they can move around without tripping over each other. A 5 by 5 meter apartment would be seen as a decent starter home f...

Re: Road to Hope
You mentioned the Kyanah being known for being aggressive. Humans aren't as aggressive and are already pretty cringe on the net. I imaging a typical Kyanah online interaction to go like: User1: geoengineering good User2: HOPE HATER HOPE HATER I WILL ******* DOX AND KILL YOU, AND I WILL HANG YOUR BO...

Re: Some thoughts on the future of humanity
Why would we become the Borg? I'm not gonna merge with anyone. And AI has no particular motive to kill us, unless we for some reason create AI that is programmed to kill us (so let's not?).
Free will is a myth anyway.

Re: Road to Hope
Naturally, Kyanah computers communicate with each other, and they have their own analogues to the internet and web. There exists specialized software called transfer programs that can take a numerical pointer to another computer and interface with the hardware in a computer's comms module, convertin...

Re: Road to Hope
Despite it being impossible for either species to hack into the other's computer systems or even directly communicate between computers, there's still a way in via trickery and social engineering. If one species can transmit a file to the other via radio and convince an engineer to convert it to the...
