Also loving LOL that Ben has a huge walk in office while actual employees have to sit 2 feet from eachother.

The only similarities are they write long posts and are skeptical of SC. They have completely different styles. OSC is usually very coherent.

Looks like it time to wake up and get moving, big day today. I wake up in bed, wearing my space suit. Mom always said, a man sleeps in his suit. She died in the Clipping Disaster of '36. I miss her every day.

It's time to get moving.

I hold my arms put from my sides, perfectly level with the floor, and noiselessly glide across the room. This is how people move now. In the station I pass Kim, she's halfway fused into the floor and vibrating rapidly. Looks like a bad day for Kim today! I laugh but my mouth moves soundlessly. The actual sound it produces erupts several seconds later and is has a static tone to it. The 'verse is strange!

My ship waits outside, a MISC Saberdart XXTk 8700t. It looks like a child's toy, bristling with pointless protrusions and appendages. My ship is so freaking cool, it's jet black with black accents and black guns. The windows are a dark black. I gaze at my ship lovingly, she's lasted several days for me now and I named her "xXxBongRipper420xXx". It feels like the right name for such a perfect spacecraft. Right now she's on the landing pad, spinning in place furiously.

I walk up to my ship and attempt to open the rear cargo​ hatch, I've got a couple of Big Benny's vending machines to transport to a moon today. The ship is spinning so rapidly that the hatch is a blur, as expected. All is well in the 'verse.

A corpse floats by, stuck in tpose. As I near the BongRipper420, the rapidly spinning ship sends me spinning into space, my body contorting into horrifying positions as I jettison away. Looks like those Big Benny's will have to wait! The blood starts pooling in my eyes, and I see a brief blinding flash as the local star reflects in my visor.

In the distance, the space station twitches and writhes.

I sigh in contentment. Another day in the 'verse!

:lol:

This was a fun one. Good job! :)

Ok. Let's play a game, goons.

Open this image, full size, in another tab and see if you can identify items from Ben's room in the 1990's that are also in the above photo of his office in 2017.

then it's a good hire and stop spreading fud

No, but since the whole place is supposed to be breaking down, that's probably intended. So it's almost the exact opposite of SC and hard to use as a point of reference.

Also any zoom in closeups of the items in this game developers bedroom you have will totally help with the effort here, so get all up in there. Really get crazy with it.

Do you guys think hundreds of years into the future, once mankind begins to build a galactic empire, scientists and engineers will have figured out a way to secure cargo crates in a spaceship hold? This is important.

Well they will probably lose all forklift technology, and robotic loading methods. Everything will be relegated to tiny boxes only movable by hand. I think because of this scientific minds will develop a way to make these boxes vanish into thin air until the cargo area is used and the box reappears for you to pick up.

I'm pretty sure this is the direction science is going to go. Oh, also your call will be full of exposed conduits and wiring like a Giger painting. And I hope you like leather jackets!
