For everybody commenting on passwords manager, I've been using one for years now and I feel this so bad. My company has a password policy of changing the LAPTOP's password every 8 weeks and you can't reuse any of the last 10 passwords used. I hate it because I can't use a password manager to unlock my laptop and I'm so used to password managers by now that it's getting really hard to come up with new passwords that follow the stupid requirements and even worse remembering them. I'm veeeery close to just start noting them down in a notebook by my machine and then send a picture to our security guy to show him where he has gotten us all to

All good! Having a cup of coffee and prepping everything for a Boardgame Night.

But then said good only has as much value as we put on it. There's a tacit acceptance of what a group of people decided that good is worth. Its value is as real as we collectively decide it is; it's a construct

I already own the game, so I'm not interested in the code. I just wanted to acknowledge that you're an awesome human being! Thank you for being kind.

A theoretical discovery is still a discovery isn't it?

This is the type of meta-content I live for lol

I really like this! Great job!

It still equals 1, you can prove it without using fractions:

x = 0.999...

10x = 9.999...

10x = 9 + 0.999...

10x = 9 + x

9x = 9

x = 1

There's even a Wikipedia page on the subject

Saw it for the first time very recently. I did NOT expect such... versatility from racoons' testicles. Great movie for a wild ride

Didn't know about the third one. Thanks, I'll check it out!

Came here to say the exact same thing: To the Moon is definitely a game for ugly crying. I even replayed it a couple of years ago, and even when I already KNEW what was going to happen, I still found myself crying for hours and being overemotional for a week. Great games with beautiful storytelling. I can feel myself tearing up just by thinking about it. Maybe it's time for another replay haha

I know that nowadays there are some physics engines pretty advanced, capable of very complex simulations.

Are we at a point in technology where if, for example, we were to simulate a rock being dropped on the floor from a certain distance, the simulation can calculate the shape and weight of the rock , the air resistance experienced during the fall, the density of the floor where the rock will fall onto, and all the other thousands of factors involved, and from those things "calculate" the sound that the rock will make when hitting the floor, and then reproduce it?

Is there such a thing? Are we there yet? If not, is it something feasible?
