Added 2024-08-17 08:57:41 +0000 UTCA video forum is the long distance version of a video conference, and is in some ways closer to a group chat or email chain. It will group local people into live video calls but also allow them to record video chunks and attach them to a reply chain. This works better than "live" calls for groups of people over a couple minutes of lightspeed lag from each other.

I love how you've fleshed out how the internet and data logistics of your world works. Its just all these tiny details that would normally be left unexplained in other settings that makes your world feel so much more alive and tangible.

2024-08-24 12:54:10 +0000 UTCI was wondering why talita didn’t mention the fact that the renovation will be pointless since shes leaving with bip, but then i realized shes probably not ready for that leap yet. right now the three of them are just committing felonies together to help bip leave, they havent come to the decision to go with them yet. cant wait for that realization to set in :)

2024-08-17 20:42:25 +0000 UTCThey use wormhole switchboards to communicate but those are fitted on the same structure as the ship transit wormhole generator because of their power requirements, specialized equipment, and their collapse risks. So communication is mostly limited by light speed, since the data travels to and from the wormhole via laser.

2024-08-17 18:05:42 +0000 UTCI'm assuming they can't just have a network of micro-wormholes that allow for FTL communication no matter were you are.
