    People out there who enjoyed the harder sci-fi of "The Expanse" are recommending:

    - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silo_(se…
    - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beacon_2…
    - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrapol…

    I'll put them on my list to check out.

    Silo: People in a post-apocalyptic world trapped in an underground silo. The world outside is lethal. Or is it? Yes, it is. Or is it?

    Beacon 23: Two people stuck on a dark-matter "lighthouse" at the edge of settled space. Slow-going world-building.

    Extrapolations: Climate future anthology with loads of famous actors.

    A question was asked on a French-speaking Discord server I'm on: Is there any #ScienceFiction work that specifically explores in details fictional alternative economic systems?

    If you know anything about the #Foundation series by Isaac #Asimov, do not interact with the Foundation #ScienceFiction TV show created for Apple TV+ in 2021. I repeat, do not interact, you are risking significant mental damage.

    You have been warned.

    ♲ @aaribaud@mastodon.art: Hello Fediverse,

    Would you, or someone you know, #translate a #ScienceFiction story of 5500 words from #French to #English for €500 (about €0.09/word) ?

    If so:

    I'm good enough to write in plain English, but my main character uses a mix of slang and inventive idioms which baffles me as far as translating it goes.

    I will expect questions during the translation process and will provide all answers needed, but be warned: I will probably retaliate with questions of my own. :)

    Thanks in advance!

    So I'm watching this Chinese #SciFi/disaster blockbuster! I don't know if I should continue. It's so incredible bad, but I also like the fact this is a Chinese #scienceFiction film and I've never saw one.

    I mostly write speculative fiction with a bit of grit and grime. However, being a creature of complexity and nuance, I also co-author humorous fiction.
