Comment	Post #279503	Have a genetic sequence coding for a hash in a block chain of citizen identities. You are given a unique hash at birth and this is easy to sequence and check in the block chain ledger to see who the sequence belongs to. Forging this information is bad because the gull genome can be sequenced and in... (more)	—	over 2 years ago
Comment	Post #236597	It seems there is no way to add a Title to a comment later when editing it. (more)	—	over 2 years ago
Comment	Post #236597	The Niven Ringworld has such a mountain. Enabled by the god like Ringworld Engineers when they made the floor material strong enough to withstand a large meteor strike by bulging in without rupturing until the bulge was higher than the atmosphere. It has a catchy name "Fist-of-God". Known Space t... (more)	—	over 2 years ago

Comment	Post #279977	Filling the middle ear with fluid will damp the tympanum. Making this process slow or voluntary could add plot twist, perhaps only the priest class are taught how to clear their ears to be able to hear. (more)	—	over 2 years ago

Comment	Post #280677	One of Iain M. Banks' (RIP) novels had a military command centre that was in a tight orbit on a planetoid with no atmosphere at a radius smaller than the planets radius. It was orbiting in a groove cut in the planet like a giant grand canyon but bigger. Very hard to shoot at because it was in a dif... (more)	—	over 2 years ago

Comment	Post #281706	It would also allow people to take a risk of damage to the gun by heating it and hoping the solidified gun jam gets denatured before the stuck rounds explode and damage the gun. Single shot electrically ignited guns will be developed before the end of your book to totally avoid Strawberry Gun Jam.... (more)	—	over 2 years ago
Comment	Post #281707	I like this stuff, permanent thread locker. When overheated It would turn to diamond and embed itself into the scratches it makes in the parts before crystallising like superglue. (more)	—	over 2 years ago
Comment	Post #232832	Yeah, a radioactive Titanium isotope would be interesting. Might have to be an isotope that has a short half life and is synthetic. An alternative is a mythical binary isotope where every unstable atom needs a stable light isotope atomically bonded with it to keep it stable, when excited with a l... (more)	—	over 2 years ago
Comment	Post #206265	Bombadere beetles fart superheated steam. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombardier_beetle All the hypergollic rocket fuels (ignite on contact) I have read about are very reactive chemicals where both components are hard to store in well engineered containers. Biological storage may be impossibl... (more)	—	over 2 years ago
Comment	Post #272117	I would suggest reading the books by Thor Heyerdahl to gain insight on proven ways of how to do this in a minimalist way. A flotilla with N+2 smaller boats would be my choice if I had to make the crossing and the stakes were high. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thor_Heyerdahl (more)	—	over 2 years ago
