A Single Ship | HFY | A short Sci-Fi Story

[@MrGeneralissimus]

Probe with a sense of humor. What could go wrong.

[@DasHeino2010]

"Say Apple!"

[@merrick1588]

so we became The Q and programmed our probes with the mind of Lor... great

[@Low_commotion]

When a (post-sublimed) Culture drone gets one last bout of that ol' crankiness...

[@Triffgits]

Man this AI sure isn't smart if it can't figure out why the aliens are hostile to it or why deleting all of the aliens' weapons is a poor diplomatic move. This is like a teenager given a superweapon.

[@Bellator_of_the_Shadow]

It was malfunctioning

[@davidknight3249]

Why didn't it delete all the weapons in the first place instead of killing 125k beings?

[@target4all766]

Let me guess the name of that Prope AI was H.A.L 9000

[@TK-fp5fp]

What did Will do and why are they all firing at him? 🤔😂😂😂

[@stratometal]

Best thing about HFY is that there is enough content for everyone to make videos about. The image fits so well. I've really been meaning to ask, what AI (if any) are you guys using, cuz I've been wanting to make some stuff like that for my Starfinder tabletop rpg sessions.

[@scifistories1977]

I use Leonardo.ai it has free credits as well (150 credits a day).

[@stratometal]

@@scifistories1977 AWESOME! Thank you. Maybe now I can get my players off my back about visual aids, lol. My drawings suck.

[@klappstock943]

For the Algorithm the story and the voice 🎉

[@stratometal]

LMAO. Fellow squirrel I presume?

[@klappstock943]

True words to ready in times of need 🎉

[@Erin-Thor]

And we thank you for your service. 😊

[@michaelbarnard8529]

Stationary relative to all frames of reference? That would be really weird to somehow be stationary relative to frames of reference that are moving relative to each other. Weird on the level of “basic physics no longer makes any sense”.

[@worldcomicsreview354]

How would you know, anyway? You can't check on every frame of reference in the universe!

[@Mens_Rights]

@@worldcomicsreview354 Sigh. Are you joking, or are you really not getting this very simple point?

[@enricnaval4934]

It's one of those things that sounds very impressive, but doesn't actually make sense. Not from a logical or a physical point. It's just word salad, arranged to look cool and nothing else.

[@_AcatHat]

If it was possible to be stopped relative to all frames of reference you would slip out of the universe as far as anyone not affected could tell.. So to all frames of reference they KNEW to check maybe?

[@RobertMattison-w4p]

Very interesting short SfYi story. I thought it would be interesting and well written.

[@ronin47-ThorstenFrank]

That one was great! And I guess a bit influenced by the late Iain M. Banks Culture! Which would be a good thing.

[@geotard]

The disappointment when they receive a copy of wikipedia ..

[@davidknight3249]

😂😂😂

[@lemonandgaming6013]

if bronze age people had access to wikipedia (and we did teach them how to read it, of course) that would immeasurably help them

[@geotard]

@@lemonandgaming6013 that whooshing noise is the joke going over your head. take life less seriously, believe me it will help you delay the inevitability of depression when you understand how stupid we really are and how the internet failed and shares stupid at the speed of light

[@lemonandgaming6013]

@@geotard wow you deduced my entire psychological state from a single sentence! besides, i did realize you are making a joke but it was not funny and i had an interesting point to raise so i raised it

[@geotard]

@@lemonandgaming6013 back to bed. you've had a big day. school in the morning. the grownups are talking and we don't need your distraction.

[@johncunningham4820]

The A.I. sounds like Omega v:93.113 . Or just Tim . It's hard to say.......................

[@valkgh]

Yep sound similar

[@unipsi]

Returning people to life, restoring a 1000 ships that were destroyed, erasing memories and even unsoiling pants...this is so over the top god-like that it makes me think the writer activates god mode on every game he buys without ever playing it on normal mode. This started out interesting until the human arrived and started undoing everything.

[@davidturner4824]

Great story. Well, I guess we become a successful specie.

[@winnie8614]

If anything couldn't move, how they could "bombard" it? At least this hould be lasers or somth.

[@AnthonyOkeeffe]

This is the best story I've ever heard from you i need more of this hour's of it i need just brilliant top stuff mate 👌

[@TheSolidSnakeOil]

Nice of them to unshit everyones pants.

[@ZoruaZorroark]

anyone else suspect humans were involved

[@Mens_Rights]

Well, yes, because it's an HFY story.

[@kitcarpo4745]

Very entertaining.

[@cindaschuster6725]

Luv this 💙👍

[@walterengler5709]

Like Humanity even evolved and advanced would share THAT level of technology with another universe. Compensate them, repair the damage, help them understand how to use it .. yes. But given what was seen of the lifeform .. giving them incredible powers and tech will only result in another malfunction to clean up, this time on a universal scale. Sigh.

[@azwanajeeb2167]

Not exactly 10 years is not enough for them to reach human level technology at very least only propelled them to civilization type 3 or 4 while humankind at type 30 and above

[@davidhaaijema4521]

Most conflicts are over limited resources, you just gave them access to infinite resources for their needs. And you also seem to be forgetting that there's only 2 other species as hyper aggressive as humans can be on this planet and kill their own. That's a 3 out of over 340 million distinct species we've observed donig that. The chances that a sentient alien species would be as aggressive as us is highly unlikely.

[@mattor300]

​@@azwanajeeb2167as far as I'm concerned a species that uses entire universes for power is type 7

[@randombloke82]

Ten years to study billions of years of history and technological progress? Barely enough to understand how the light switches work now. Just about enough time to truly understand exactly how far behind you are though.

[@souplike.homogenate]

My concern for theToran president ended when they immediately asked about the value of the Universal Unit, instead of the resurrection of 100,000+ of its people. Demand more of your leaders.

[@edmondgreen7970]

It wasn't the Toran president that asked.

[@FullchanAnon]

I can't even call you speedreader-kun 😂

[@themarlboromandalorian]

Impetuous thing isn't it?

Temper temper

[@CaelDorman]

"What? They fired first."

[@rachaelcourtnell7275]

Human's become Q lol.

[@ScorpiusZA.]

What happens when Humanity reaches the level of the Q

[@GalakStarscraper]

I have to admit this was not my taste. Love the stories of this channel but it is for what humans excel at. We are not qualifying for god beings even in a billion years I fear.
