It’s definitely a trap. All that knowledge would probably overfill your brain and overwrite parts, making you an insane halfzombie without a friend.
Halloween!
Was not expecting a Chainsaw man reference in this thread lol
I’ll have some knowledge for free, pls!
hugs
DM me if you need a friend. being isolated sucks.
Isolated and without knowledge :|.
Thank you for your kind words, it is appreciated, and helps.
This is nice.
Nice things are nice.
if i get all the knowledge in the universe, i’ll know how to retrieve my friend
The knowledge will let you know you made the wrong decision.
Maybe you will simply know that it is impossible to retrieve them
Fair

Or maybe he just hands you a slip of paper which says “you know nothing”
If he’s still a corporeal form, there aint no way he has all the knowledge of the universe.
Might be easier to communicate that way
Could have recreated a physical avatar after compiling the Book.
A friend of mine once told me this story. She was very much trying to do good in school, including studying a lot to do good at the final exams. Her dad had cancer at the time and the prognosis was he’d last till August or so. He died in May. She was devastated. She said she’d rather have spent time with her dad before he passed away than study for the stupid school. Her plan was to study, finish school in June and then spend time with her dad. The universe had other plans. Just a story from real life.
All the knowledge in the universe sounds like a privacy crisis.
I would assume that ALL the knowledge in the universe would include how to get my friend back from Gax.
Or the knowledge that you can’t.
It does, but Gax also has all of that knowledge. Now you are in a galactic game of wits.
Decoy Gax.

had all of that knowledge
Do you lose information when you share it with others?
According to big corporations with a lot of intellectual property at least
If it was me being taking away I would tell the person “take the knowledge, build clean energy on this planet! Trust me, that’s totally worth one person! Especially if that person is my lazy ass!”
And then the recipient of the knowledge realizes the problem was never the technology, it’s the incentive structure of the system.
What do you mean capitalism only enables greedy psychopaths!?
Hey now, you’re not getting a free escape from this dump that easily.
You get back down here right now 🦀
“Change the world! My final message. Goodbye.”
What’s he doing with the friend he’s taking? Maybe it won’t be so bad.
Can we pick the friend?
isn’t it paradoxical? all the knowledge means you now have an infinitely detailed image of the friend, you know how to create a look-alike human with same dna’s and know how to flash the image to the new human. thus you’ve recreated the friend while keeping the knowledge.
Only if that is possible. It is not a god cheat code. In fact even if something is possible it does not mean it is practical or doable in ones lifetime
I was also thinking if Gax has all that knowledge then they know her friend is needed, regardless.
Is test. No-one willing to trade a friend should be given such knowlege freely. Conversely, no-one should bear such a burden alone.
Can we break it up among my friend-group with a decent bit of overlap? Except for the moral hazard stuff; Break that up among us into the smallest, least coherent bits possible.
If any alien wants to take me away from you, let them. Fuck earth! I’m off to GORP GORP!!!
It’s gonna take a GORP to drag me awaaaay from yoooou!
And it’s nothing that a hundred Gax or more could ever dooooooo!
The first one is a bit unfair since they don’t say what they’re planning to do with the 100,000 people. Even when things are doing well generally, there will always be people who would jump at the chance to get off the planet and start anew.
The second one sounds like heaven if the internet access includes a good gaming PC and way to get games on it.
I mean, they start with “we come seeking mates.” Sex is implied, though it could be sex slavery, could be a death after sex thing, but there are fetishes for that too, and she got the signups on a fetish site. Seems fair to me, unless you mean the judgement of the Aliens. Maybe asking more questions is part of the test.
Oh, you’re right, I missed that. I have a feeling they’d get more male volunteers in that case, but what I said mostly still applies.
From from
From is Gax’s last name
Gax From just wanted a friend
“Not THAT one, but sure.”
