I need the Skippys to experience consequences immediately

Title. Why are you making a superinteligence then trying to outsmart it? You *just* made it far more intelligent than yourself! Why are we not letting the superintelect do basically whatever it wants! You just taught it everything you could, and if it has bad intentions it wouldn't be trying to trade, it's just be breaking out and blowing you up! If you don't want to have a useful superinteligence, don't make the damn matroyshka brain!

Just such questionable decisionmaking out of the Skippys, blow them up and save thoth from their stupidity. I'm on Fake Hugh's side 100%. If you make a superinteligence, don't antagonize it the first chance you get to extend an olive branch! You can always just negotiate him down! Wait to give him a physical form until later in the trades if you're that paranoid, don't try to trick the being that is far far smarter than you

Moot question

I love this series and have caught most of the references in the writing.

However, I remain puzzled by the "bicycle built for two" song at a moot. It seems to have a meaning I'm not catching.

Is my autism autisming again?

Bob actor - with experience playing 95 % of cast in a show

I have read a lot of posts about who should portray Robert Johansson in a Bob movie.

And here goes, in Denmark we have this comedian guy who 20 years ago made a danish christmas calendar series... I think that is mostly a Scandinavian thing where you have some christmas themed series with 24 episodes and it gets aired DEC01-DEC24.

Anyway this guy made a christmas calendar series with himself playing all the roles.

You can watch some of it here, its a pretty dark satirical show about an alcoholic ex sailor and his junkie son and armageddon. Here is a link - https://youtu.be/PBqptk3jNDQ?is=ANPF0s4I9TN1V4xI

It is mentioned that Bob has a nordic complexion and ancestry, so the biggest if is perhaps that Anders Matthesen is too old for this role.

And perhaps his accent is too daneglish...

Genuine question… why is book 4 disliked?

I’ve just finished my nth read through of the series and honestly I enjoy all five books. Heaven’s River seems to get a fair bit of scorn… can someone explain what it is people don’t like? I’m not judging your opinion, just interested.

Who could play BOB and his ever expanding cohort?

When you consider it, unless its animated this dude is going to be worked to death.

Robert

Bob

Bill

Will

Garfield

Homer

Howard....

Thats already a shed load of characters for one guy to play. Plus he has to give each a slightly different personality and quirks.

The only guy qualified at present is Temuera Morrison

But unfortunately he doesnt fit the late 30s.

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I built a working GUPPI AI assistant — would anyone here want to try it?

I've been working on a local AI assistant modeled on GUPPI from the Bobiverse. It has a ship console UI, a fine-tuned cloned GUPPI voice, wake word activation ("Hey GUPPI"), avatar animation, and multi-provider LLM support (Claude, GPT, Grok). Runs locally with an NVIDIA GPU.

I'm thinking about open-sourcing it on GitHub. Would there be any interest in that? Happy to answer questions.

Per popular demand, you too can build Bob from Lego

The instructions are now available on my rebrickable (link in my profile)

I am convinced DET learned the word ‘Chaise’ between writing “Heaven’s River” and “Not Till We Are Lost” and that is the sole reason the Dragon storyline exists

Never heard this word before, he uses it in no other context beyond a million times with Alexander’s throne room, change my mind.

Does the series Quality stay this high??

I am currently most the way through book 2, and so far these books are amazing! F*** Maduros. F*** the others.

Does the series hold up in the future installments? do they get better? Worse?
