  • Thanks for that - I hadn’t thought about the rest of the domain in the name.

    I was purely thinking about it from a hypothetical risk-mitigation perspective.

    As you can imagine, keeping ‘the old crap around’ in case of a need to roll back would be handy in some migrations… Assuming the same IP complicates that.

    However, I guess a machine can have multiple IPs so it needn’t be too much of a drama if it’s just a matter of moving the original IP when rolling back…

    Another one with different cultures is the expanse, by James s.a. Corey. This is more different around the belters and whatnot.

    Dune and the freemen are amazing. Some of the earlier parts (this is a massive topic!) are really different, with the bene Gesserit and fremen, tleilaxu gholas, etc

    Certainly the culture, with it’s post-scarcity absence of an economy stands out. I have read any from le guin, yet.
