I've been a lot more close to front lately. I wonder if there's some particular reason for that, or if it's just down to chance.

Good evening.

@starkatt You were talking about the word "hundo" earlier, I believe. I wanted to tell you that we actually encountered someone using it for something completely different today--we were testing the current-carrying capacity of a wire by passing 100 amperes through it and measuring the power loss and temperature rise, and the person we were borrowing the 250A power supply from referred to it being set at 100A with "hundo".

Has anyone ever made the "my god, it's full of taurs!" joke?

Goodnight!

I can only assume the solution I found was unintended for at least one of the two. What's the intended solution?

Wait, are the levels space-8 and space-extra1 identical? I solved both of them with exactly the same method. They can't both be intended to be completed in exactly the same way, right?

I feel like I haven't been around much lately. I'm not really sure how to fix that. I'd like to be around more; you're all good people here.

Baba is you is a good game, but some of the levels just have me really stumped.

I managed to complete the temple ruins though!

Here, I'm using /g/ to represent any of [g], [γ], [gγ], or similar sounds, as I certainly couldn't claim to know what specific voiced back-of-the-throat consonant it represented. Likewise, /k/ represents an unvoiced consonant at the same place of articulation--or possibly different but similar place.

Where did the letter G come from, anyway? I know it originated as a variant of C, but I don't know what sound changes in Latin made it necessary. It would make most sense for it to have originally been /g/ and something shifted it to be /k/ in some contexts, and then later /k/ was seen as the default and /g/ a variant, which would logically lead to /g/ getting its own glyph assuming the people speaking the language could tell the difference between /k/ and /g/.

They say to have soup when you're feeling ill... Perhaps we'll go get some nice udon soup.

Seeing them called Intel FPGAs still looks weird to us.

Gen 5 would probably be the most interesting, just because if you go to gen 6 or 7 you have access to ORAS, which gets you all the hoenn pokemon without needing any transfers. Also, you can do up to gen 5 without using any software other than the games themselves; transferring from 5 to 6 requires a transfer program external to the pokemon games, and 6 to 7 requires that you use that online box thing.

Still thinking about routing out a glitchless catch-em-all speedrun of a recent pokemon game, that involves trading and transferring up through generations of pokemon games in order to get ones not otherwise available.

I learned a new word today, one that seems useful for nothing more than sounding pretentious and filling in esoteric crosswords: antejentacular, meaning "pre-breakfast".

A glitchless complete-pokedex run of any of the more recent pokemon games would be interesting, as it would necessarily involve playing multiple games. I'd like to see someone speedrun that sometime. Or at least route it out.

Goodnight, all. May you dream of excellent things.

Hey @starkatt, you seem like the most likely person to know out of the people we know; do you know what the proper method for stripping polyimide-insulated litz wire is? Considering it has thousands of individually-insulated strands I assume you're not meant to manually remove the insulation from each one. Is there a solvent to use or something?

No problem if you don't know, I just thought I'd ask just in case. I can't seem to find anything online.
