UNSOLICITED FACT: The way I form my ellipses acts as a sort of tone indicator. A non-spaced ellipsis indicates a negative tone, while a spaced ellipsis indicates a positive or contemplative tone.
Icelandic Water Dragon: “Huh . . . I never thought about them having folding handles. I guess it makes sense, if you wanted to put them in an equipment locker-” *water droplet hits forehead* “-ow. That's . . . kinda ironic, now that I think about it.”
Lakkatura: *staring at phone, grinning intensely*
Pariki: *addressing Lakkatura* “You could've just told us…”
Icelandic Waters #1: “I couldn't tell whether it said 'Paintbrush’ or ‘Painbrush’ . . . and it was the latter. That thing is thinner than a roller and slower than an Inkbrush. At least it's good at pummeling Stingers and painting over Flipper-Flopper spots. My Jet Squelcher dream might've been closer to reality than I expected…”
Icelandic Waters #2: “Spoiler alert: 26 × 26 + 26 > 118.”
Lakkatura: “The harmony intensifies . . . heheheh.”
Icelandic Waters #1: “LANDON COMING THROUGH, NOW ATTEMPTING COMPETITIVE PAINTBOMBING!”
Icelandic Waters #2: “Shhh, we forgot to tell them about Rai-”
Out of curiosity, does anyone else spam ⌘C when copying things, or is it just because I’m running on a mixture of frustration and paranoia?
Today, we got a Nintendo Direct, an Apple Special Event, and No Man's Sky: Cosmos, all in a single day. Anything else I missed?
It’s only been four months since The Watcher was released, and in just 20 minutes, this year’s Akupara Direct is going live, which is due to announce a fresh round of Rain World news, whatever it may be . . .
UPDATE: Kayvana started playing during the pre-show countdown, and the live chat blew up.
My Dad: “Hey, I found a Geiger counter at a yard sale! Do you know of any objects around the house that emit gamma radiation?”
Me:
let limiter = 25
var weights = [0,0,0]
var valid = false
while true {
valid = true
weights[0] = Int.random(in: 1 ... limiter)
weights[1] = Int.random(in: 1 ... limiter)
weights[2] = Int.random(in: 1 ... limiter)
if ((weights[0]+weights[1]) != (17)) {valid = false}
if ((weights[0]+weights[2]) != (14)) {valid = false}
if ((weights[1]+weights[2]) != (11)) {valid = false}
if valid {print(weights)}
}If I am somehow elected, I will be partnering with a certain private biology research institute to provide health services that allow anyone to be transformed into a dragon for the low price of five cents (5¢)! More species will be made available in the future, assuming that our research is funded and forthcoming!
. . . wait, am I supposed to be campaigning for a country, or for a website?
I remember hearing somewhere that Nintendo Game Boy games were fully backwards compatible with the Nintendo DS. So let me get this straight . . . up to the 3DS, until the introduction of the Switch, every game ever created for any portable gaming system in the Nintendo ecosystem was natively playable with up-to-date hardware? That can’t possibly be true . . .
Out of curiosity, how does everyone feel about games that release at midnight local time? I happen to be aware of a certain game that’s currently going through one such release cycle. While the system ensures that everyone gets their launch at a convenient time, that also means that the folks who went out of their way to get Australian accounts reserve access to their copies a day ahead of time - and reserve the rights to make “all bosses + ending“ videos. Should this system be abolished, or should it be kept in place?
CYBERSECURITY TIP: if your door lock has visibly worn digits, get the code changed. By revealing the digits of the code, the baseline 10×10×10×10 = 10,000 possible 4-digit codes is reduced to a measly 4×3×2 = 24 possible codes.
