My guess on the DisTown is they will just use HOA's to skirt the laws. It's also possible it will be in an unincorporated area. There is only so much they can do, though. They know the residents won't do anything because this is america and people don't have any power to do poo poo.

Perhaps as the search for beloved books to turn into disappointing movies/shows continues, someone will decide to wave a shitload of money in front of Vernor Vinge and we'll get a The Peace War adaptation (except the bad guys aren't government scientists any more, obviously). Or they'll adapt A Fire Upon The Deep but make the Tines extremely toyetic. Amazon probably won't want to do A Deepness In The Sky because the Emergents seem like basically Bezos' dream future.

I can't even imagine what kind of loopholes they have figured out to maintain corporate control of all municipal government. Imagine a timeshare where you give up control of every aspect of your life to live an idealized 50s perfect suburbia. You can't own it. But you can vacation there for x months a year and a requirement to participate is proof of homeownership elsewhere. Conveniently proves you can't vote there because you don't really live there with the added benefit it keeps the poor out.

It's probably more sinister than that. Like the kind of broke-brained dipshit that would live in Disneyville wouldn't try to fight Disneyville anyways, but they still cinched up every loophole anyways just to make sure the residents are legally the property of the park and have no civil rights.

This will specifically be a community in which we all LARP as lightning fast VCR repair employees. Broken VCR's will be provided on site, attempting to fix them is punishable by death. The rent will be zero and the lease will expire when the elderly return from their vacation homes. If you go ten years without being removed then whoever owned your home died of covid and you can begin your legal case to eminent domain your new hovel.

It was a reference to the Dune art book that was recently bought by a DAO of crypto idiots who assumed that by buying this expensive book for way more than they should have paid that it enabled them to now start producing Dune IP, it's quite ridiculous. I mean you're right though, it will absolutely happen again as well because these people are dumb as hell. https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/crypto-group-buys-rare-dune-175957282.html

A Deepness In The Sky is one of my all time favorite sci-fi novels. I got bored of the Tines by book 1 but the whole concept and execution of Deepness In The Sky is loving Good As Hell. I can't even imagine how they'd gently caress it up. Cuddly spider people? SEXY spider people?
