Even if you think of a slave not as a human being but as, say, a working dog, or even a nice tool, these things are treated well. Most dog owners genuinely love their dogs and don't punish them more than what is strictly necessary. Most people naturally respect and grow attached to their "partners", whether there are humans, animals or even inanimate objects.
So why do slaves, who are are capable of empathy, speech, and everything that make us human get treated worse than a mechanic's favorite wrench?

Learn some history. The actual treatment of slaves varied massively from culture to culture, in some better, in some worse.

Although saying that, even the best treated slaves in history still weren't in a particularly enviable position.

>So why do slaves, who are are capable of empathy, speech, and everything that make us human get treated worse than a mechanic's favorite wrench?
Because slaves are disposable. Dogs, partners or nice tools are not.
There is no emotional attachment involved and one slave is indistinguishable from another from the owner's viewpoint.
>>
>>53274623
Might be considered some kind of hidden morality thing. Like the people who owned slaves, even if they said otherwise, knew what they were doing was kind of fucked up.

At the very least I'd posit this: a dog could never overthrow you and take your place. Even historical groups who believed slaves were of lesser stock realized that they were extremely dangerous, and so likely took efforts to beat them down.

Which of course only made them more likely to rebel, but hey, that's humanity for you. Stupid and pointlessly cruel. When robots become sapient they'll probably not even go full terminator until some idiot decides to preemptive strike them.

In a space opera setting where FTL travel is widespread, what level of math proficiency should normal people possess?
23 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
>>53272720
No more than most today's people?
Basic operations and a few other stuff?
I mean, cars are widespread but not one one in ten people can tell you exactly how they work, with all the math and stuff.
>>
>>53272720
Space Opera is all about not sweating the finer details of 'how' while playing around with the 'what's going on'. The normal people don't need a lot of math, since they've clearly got robots and computers to do that for them.

We probably need a new pasta edition.

Warmasters Triumvirate is an attempt at creation yet another 40k AU. The Primarchs have changed, and instead of appointing a single Warmaster upon returning to Terra, the Emperor leaves the Great Crusade in the care of three of his sons. This eventually culminates in a civil war between Loyalists, Chaos Traitors and Seperatists...

first you need an armored crib or Satchel.

A good husband in a large, well protected city to take care of the kids whenever you're out bashing dragons heads.

A large city since small rural towns are just begging to have a horde of some sort roll through.

It's always been slow, last one was pretty fast without going OT though so I don't know why you would say that.

What do you guys listen to while creating stuff, if anything?
I tend to listen to Age of Wonders OST and other videogame OSTs or ambient.
It really helps sometimes if I don't know how to continue something to listen to some music thematically similar to what I'm writing about.
