In an alternate Universe, Mr. Spock remarked, "It is truly remarkable how the Ferengi culture has evolved!"
Indeed!
Morale of the story: DO NOT MESS WITH HUMANS! 😂
Great story!
Exactly! Glad you liked it. :)
I love it sińce there was no "Galactic Council...." bs...
Glad you liked it! I think the whole council thing is a bit overused, but it's an integral part of most HFY stories still too. I can live with it so long as alien butts are being thoroughly kicked! Lol
These stories make me feel so excited and proud to be a human.
I'm glad you're liking them! HFY is definitely an enjoyable subgenre just because of how positive it paints humans. :)
Great story. Kept picturing the Ferengi in my head tho. Nice to have an engaging story that didn’t involve the Galactic Council, and Admiral or a named ship. Well done.
Glad you liked it! I'll see of we can cut down on some of those more stereotypical HFY things since so many people seem to be tired of it. :)
Excellent story! Very well thought out and narrated! Four thumbs up 👍👍👍👍
Awesome! I'm glad you liked this so much, thank you!
That was excellent very well thought out…plus all the leassons r spot on!
Glad you liked it!
One of the best stories out there. Good to listen too, well paced and with a sound tale to tell. Well done.
Awesome! Thank you for the comment amd the view. :) I'll tell the writer you liked it!
These Galatic stories are AWESOME!!! keeper coming
Awesome! I'm thrilled to hear it, thank you. :)
This is an excellent story!
Well worth listening to,great pacing!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked this one. :)
I agree. Well told.
@@ANGRYWOLVERINE2060-ft2nc Thank you! :D
Nice story, but holy shit, if I hear about "cybernetic enhancements flickering" I'm gonna lose it.
Hahahaha
*My cybernetic enhancements flickered and whirred as I processed this new information...*
I made sure that the cybernetic references were toned down in the stories later on in this series, I hope that makes them more enjoyable for ya! (And less annoying for all of us!)
i thought the same, this story did not need it.
Perhaps instead: _Derlaki adjusted his robes and stepped up to the podium before his world's parliment. He placed his hands on its surface and began to speak, the vertical crack at the center of his face widening as he began to speak in modulated concentrations of sulpur, which was the languge of his kind._
No Galactic Council, No Chen's, and No "And This Is Only The Beginning"!
Glad you liked it! :)
Truly one of the best examples of why peace and equal trade and honest good treatment to everyone is the best way to go. Profit! Profit!! Profit!!!....by not screwing others.
Agreed! :)
"we flourish in peace, we thrive in war"
New hear toltaly enjoyed loved the POV.
Glad you liked it! :)
A cautionary tale I wish our "leaders" were more familiar with. Thank you. UKUK
Agreed and thanks for the comment. :)
Fully fleshed out, this could be a good movie.
A very fresh look at the cost of war. Very good story.
I'd sure love to see a movie made off of this one as well! Glad you liked it. :)
There are several other stories linked to this one as well in the Fall of the Droo Empire playlist that I made. Hope you enjoy those as well! :)
Many truths spoken
Indeed!
what a good teacher
Indeed! :)
Love the story and the unique take on it. By the way do you think that teacher named um has has the last name ofnDuh😂
Lol!
To many cybernetic enhancement references. I could also see the humans capitalizing on the cultures that were dominated by the Droo would have been encouraged too rise up and fight against the Droo, as well as being spared, unless they were the "True Droo"
I gotta agree, I was tempted to cut several but didn't in the end, I don't like doing big edits on writer's work. Might need to change that though, sorta like a real publisher needs to!
And I really like those thoughts! Could be really cool for a future story. :)
I still have The Rules of Accusition . Sorry for the spelling .
Nice! And no worries. :)
very good
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
Sorry, but the whole "cybernetic enhancements" thing wore very, VERY, thin.
Sorry about that, it got to me a bit too. I'll see about doing bigger edits on stories in the future for stuff like that! :)
*My cybernetic enhancements whir as I commit this to memory* Lol
Take a shot everytime cybernetics are flickering 😂
Lol So you want to get DRUNK drunk.
Trieð dis challenge. OT OKAY.
VERy dunk. Call you later. K thhx bye.
@@jamesogden7756 Lol!
Excellent story.
I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for the comment. :)
Still need to work on tuning your narrators model, good story and the channel has lots of potential if you can clean up and improve the narration. (Yeah, I know thats the hard part. Ill swing back in a few months to see if things have improved!)
Thanks for the feedback and encouragement! Working on the AI to trying to make ot perfect! :)
What Ferengi Rule of Acquisition would this story cover??
Hahaha Maybe we'll need a thread for folks to discuss it!
3. Never spend more for an acquisition than you have to.
7. Keep your ears open.
8. Small print leads to large risk.
9. Opportunity plus instinct equals profit.
10. Greed is eternal.
21. Never place friendship above profit.
23. Nothing is more important than your health… except for your money.
34. War is good for business.
35. Peace is good for business.
45 or 95. Expand or die.
59. Free advice is seldom cheap.
62. The riskier the road, the greater the profit.
74. Knowledge equals profit.
98. Every man has his price.
109. Dignity and an empty sack is worth the sack.
125. You can't make a deal if you're dead.
208. Sometimes the only thing more dangerous than a question is an answer.
211. Employees are the rungs on the ladder of success. Don't hesitate to step on them.
239. Never allow doubt to tarnish your lust for latinum.
289?. Shoot first, count profits later.
Got from the wiki, ones that seemed to fit there may be more.
@@guildgaming9891 Treat your employees as ur enemies: persue them
A wealthy customer is rare get into them till ur toes
Is this story a commentary on the possible conflict between China and America?
Nope, but I can see some parallels.
@Sci-FiVault I watch quite a bit about China and it's relationships so my mind goes there.
@@daniellore2961 Yeah, I've been following those stories for years now as well. (I guess sci-fi is where a lot of those of us who actually watch the meaningful news come for escape. Lots of us seem more knowledgeable in military and politics than the experts the normal news puts up!)
Great words of wisdom. Peace = profits and prosperity. War = death and destruction. Can someone in the community share this video to Uncle Putin.
Share it with every world leader! They all seem to want to get folks dead of late.
many profit alot from war and destruction. You think the American "aid" to Ukraine goes to Ukraine as a banktransfer? Or do you think America is lend-leasing their old weapons stock and pumping all that money back into their economy by boosting the American weapon manufactures to renew their own warmachine's stock. Saying war is not profitable is nonsense, specialy if you manage to sell to both sides without them finding out.
We will once uncle Shlomo...I mean uncle Sam learns that lesson.😊
@@andrzej2488 Yep.
with our own MIC...War is profitable
A great story.
Thank you! Glad you liked it. :)
The story would have been better if it hadn't repeated itself several times
punctuation is crucial...
Good story. My only criticism would be to program the AI to pronounce a name the same way every time. This one pronounced the instructor's name six different ways.
I know! I'm super sorry about that, I kept tweaking things and trying to fix it but wasn't able to for this one. Some names just make my AI poop its pants. Hahaha
Trying to get the AI to behave for later videos, can't make promises, just progress. :)
Ha! We can barely get to our moon
simply fantastic
Glad you think so! Thanks!
“Peace for profitable trade” he remarked, while rubbing a heavily bejewelled thumb over his hooked nose.
das ist ein beleidigend übelriechender Gedanke.
At 11:16; "Burning Bridges", a human idiom the instructor should have given the student credit for using.
True! that could have been fun. :)
Pretty decent though an actual human narrator would be better. No proper punctuation pauses... run-on sentences... the AI is deficient. And if it ever gains sentience, then I didn't write this- my next door neighbor did.😏👉
Working on improving the voice as quick as I can! Thanks for the comment. :)
And Lol! I'll be sure to tell the AI that. :P
the grentsound a lot like ferengi
Indeed. :)
I disagree with the whole premise huge fortunes have been created because of war.😅
Limited to a few as a society war is counterproductive and Total war mostly counterproductive
That might be true, but historically war isn't good for business as well. The whole concept of it being good actually arose around the world wars ONLY for when the US wasn't a part of the wars and was just selling materials and taking loans from folks. Once you get in and get on a total war footing it's not beneficial. Plus the destruction wrought and all of that, es no bueno.
Just my take though.
Ahhh... The Ferengi
Someone has gotta get rich! Lol
Explains why the USA (Drew)is going bust.....
Oof, ain't that the truth. At least one of the reasons.
Acquisition
They sound like the feringe.
Indeed.
Looking at your photo stock, I wonder where on earth would Elon Musk find the materials needed to build his ship to MARS 😔😭? Unless, it's a fantastic GRIFT 😊😊😊
I loved the ship in the video image when I finally got it. But, yes, it would be so expensive to build!
@@Sci-FiVaultwould it be the rarity of some of the materials , or just the quantity? If the latter , then compared to a couple super tankers it may not be to unachievable
@@outinthesticks1035 My guess is a bit of both. But, let's face it, if we master the tech to build stuff like this then I expect it won't be too hard to build a massive warship like that. So many more materials will be immediately made available for our purposes. :)
I so hope we can see space mining in my lifetime!
The main reason Musk is developing rocket tech is so he can capture asteroids and mine them for metals and minerals. Mars is the end goal but the process of developing the tech to get there is what is making him rich.
@@inspiraPaz And I'd love to see it! :)
...I am a little curious what kind of tweets we'll be seeing as he does it though! Hahaha
horrible
