I read this story in the last 10 years. It is a scifi short story, probably published in Giganotosaurus or some other sci fi short story collective. Definitely published online. The story is kind of like "The Entire History of You" from Black Mirror, where people's whole lives are recorded by s...

Saw the ending for this in the early 80's. His soul is trapped in a box or placed there making him unable to die. Ends with him walking into the street and being messed up by a car hitting him but doesn't die. Can't seem to figure out what it was.

I don't really remember the context of where I read this story. It could have been online, but, if so, it would have been at a notable site. It may have been in a collection, too. I think I read it between 5 and 10 years ago, but it may have been earlier or later. It was either a longer short sto...

I bought a paperback from the PX in Italy in 1982 or 1983. The cover had a man riding a furutistic motorcycle with a woman riding behind him. The story was about preventing a presidential assassination. The hero was a secret service agent in a super-max prison. He had been accused of trying to k...

There was a short story, probably in the 1950's, about a man who goes to visit his grandfather (or uncle, father...etc). The man is confronted by a stranger who tries to beat him up while walking to his grandfathers house. Once he beats this stranger he arrives at his grandfathers house and notic...

I remember reading the book, oh about 15 years ago. It was full immersion VR in a medieval setting. I've looked at a number of other options such as, "Killobyte" or "Heir Apparent" and they don't ring a bell. I remember one specific detail, the main character would go to the physical server loc...

I've just finished reading The Three-Body Problem and noticed that a common trope in science fiction is that alien civilisations fear the rate of technological progression of the human race. In that particular novel, the Trisolarans observe that it took humans a hundred thousand years to progres...

"I own an island. Off the coast of Costa Rica. I leased it from the government and spent the last five years setting up a kind of biological preserve down there. Really spectacular. Spared no expense. It makes the one I had in Kenya look like a petting zoo." — John Hammond, Jurassic ...

Within the generation ship Ascension, there appears to be normal Earth-like gravity. Yes, I know about the twist from the end of episode 1x02, Nonetheless, there must be some explanation from the point of view of the people on board the ship (some of which even seem to be scientifically minded...

So Ysalamiri create force-empty bubbles, but what exactly is affected by this? Are you not able to use the force at all or can you just not use force abilities like force push, that influence the surroundings. Basically, they take away the force from a certain space around you if you are close en...

We’re finally in 2019, the year in which Blade Runner, Ridley Scott’s iconic 1982 science fiction film, is set. Which technologies that exist in 2019 (at least as prototypes) were correctly predicted by Blade Runner ? To clarify, I am looking only for technologies that were not in existence a...

I've watched countless prediction videos about Season 8 but no one mentions anything about Daario returning. Is there something I'm missing that would completely eliminate any chance of him coming ashore with the Second Sons ? Surely the two year gap between the time Dany left him, they could'v...

In "Aliens" Burke tells Ripley that they have lost contact with the colony on LV426 and they were sending Colonial Marines to investigate. Did "the company" assume that Ripleys story may be true or did they know there had been an outbreak of xenomorphs at 'Hadleys Hope' and that's why they were s...

I am asking this question for an older relative. This story sticks out to them over four decades after reading it, but they can't remember the title. The story is about an extremely intelligent man who is put into suspended animation and is woken up when a really complex problem needs to be solv...

Burke seems to be a pretty involved guy for WY Corp, point of contact and/or liason with Ripley at "Gateway", the accompanying the "Colonial Marines" and Ripley to LV426, but what was his actual role for WY? He sends a message to investigate the "Spacejockey" ship and had the potential to interce...

I know that Stack Exchange currently supports only Netscape, but that's against ethos of www. I use Internet Explorer which Microsoft now ships with Windows and it's damn fast. I believe that it'll beat Netscape in market share by late 90's. So, Stack Exchange should start supporting Internet ...

As per the revelation at the end of episode 1x02 Now, I'm wondering whether the immediate surrounding around the ship is a vacuum. In the scene the leads up to the aforementioned revelation has someone getting blown out through an airlock. Apparently, there is a significant pressure differenc...

What potion is used in the videogame Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix to sabotage Umbridges Speakers? Is there an official name of the potion?

In S04E15 of Supergirl, Nia Nal kisses Brainy, but after that Brainy tells her that the two of them can't be together. Why can't they be together?

I remember a film where the government was corrupt with aliens, people were sent out to kill these said aliens with visors which would show an alien if there was a green heart present, however these visors were rigged and were the opposite. Name of the film?

There's this really long book I read about eighteen years ago, though I'm fairly sure it's older than that. It starts with a guy receiving from his uncle a piece of jewellery he doesn't really want, and would like to get rid of. Only, this piece of jewellery has a really bad recycling policy - on...

I started watching this film late at night a few years ago. UK. I suddenly leaped up and grabbed the remote and switched it off. This woman was setting off to have sex with a bloke and the viewpoint switched to inside her, there was snarling noises and rows of teeth in her vagina waiting to bite...

Is there any indication that (perhaps in some script version), as in Alien 4, that the trilobite, being the offspring of Shaw, recognizes her and that motivates it to attack the Engineer which, in this case, saves her life? I realize that it seems pretty mindless, basically a machine for creating...
