not your fragmented reality
Please, elaborate on why my reality is fragmented. I'm interested in what you have to say.
You should read up on some scifi to see how biotech has been applied.
DID YOU NOT READ MY POSTS?! I explicitly mentioned a setting that had biotechnological spacecraft- that of Peter F. Hamilton's Night's Dawn Trilogy- which features several high-profile biological vessels.
since we are discussing science Fiction
Exactly. We are discussing science fiction in general. My problem is that the majority of science fiction that depicts biotechnological constructs either is mediocre in general, or descends into what is derisively termed 'biowank'- as the author ascribes no negative aspects to the biotech constructs, while always making them strictly superior to synthetic, manufactured systems.

Don't put forth Star Trek as a good example of biotech showcasing- '8472 is a case of strict biowank, nothing more nothing less. Instead, you should have pointed out (despite me already mentioning it) the Night's Dawn Trilogy- while some of NDT's biotech is a little wanky, it's all presented in a well-thought, consistent manner- and bioships are much more vulnerable to things like concentrated radiation bursts (a 'voidhawk', as they are termed in NDT, is killed by a scrammed antimatter pod that was within several hundred kilometers).
Your confused when u start mixing scifi with reality.
No, I"m perfectly lucid when it comes to science fiction, reality, and the distinctions between the two. For example, I pointed out the deficiencies that a real-life attempt at a bioship construct would have to overcome, the inherent superiority of synthetic, non-organic systems IRL, as well as the fact that logically advancing technologies would render any type of biological warship obsolete before it left the drawing board- erm, the breeding pen?- unless, of course, you have sufficiently advanced technology that you can build a bioship for shits&giggles.
Otherwise i'm still recommending a full brain defragmentation.
Moron. See, I can play that game too.
I know it will take some time but you can't be stubborn about it.
You don't know me at all. I can be extremely stubborn.
I will ONCE AGAIN point out that biotechnological constructs are often inherently inferior to their synthetic, inorganic contemporaries. A motorcycle is better than a horse- it can go faster, farther, and with no fuss; it will not get tired, buck you off, or give you attitude. It's a machine- and it will do what you want it to do, so long as you have the appropriate skillset to exploit the vehicle.
The analogy can be extended to many things.
I'm sorry, but you're not making any sense. Please try again.
Whiskey144, we're done here.
