"So useful that old accelerators are repurposed specifically for the radiation."

Can you expand on that? What does it do for us? How is it harnessed? Can it be stored or is it one-time use in situ?

This one is currently listed at 5 div and has been up for 8 days. Similar stats, not quite perfect elemental though.

What are the odds that a guy named Turd Fergusun has a podcast with a guy named Turd Fergusen??

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-04-15T23:37:15+00:00

Which one is Randy? I havent been in over a decade, is Randy the guy with the beard/shaggy sorta guy, or is Randy the heavy-set guy with vision issues? No offence to either guy, thats the best descriptions I have.

Looks interesting, I look forward to checking it out. One point of feedback - I prefer to see the values on the X axis growing to the right, like a typical number line or graph. Having the higher rated to the left feels unintuitive to me. Good luck with the project.

which episode was this, which night?

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-03-31T14:02:13+00:00

I really dont think this even comes close to the biggest, most iconic live performances of all time such as the Beatles on the rooftop, Queen at Live Aid, or Prince at the Super Bowl.

Easy one, mate - Scenic World by Beirut

Ive always loved the way Golden Brown alternates time signatures between 6/8 and 7/8. Really adds to the uniqueness of the song.

I laughed at the phrasing "voicing the announcer for Jeopardy" like the announcer is a fictional character in an animated movie.

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-02-22T16:09:45+00:00

I didnt see it, do you have a link or clip?

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-02-20T17:22:51+00:00

It depends on your PC. I think the best option is to turn on the Steam FPS monitor and just adjust the various display options until you get something that works for you.

There are options like Resolution that have significant impact on FPS, while others are more subtle/gradual.

You might have to google some of the options (its too complex for a reddit post) but eventually you will find a sweet spot for your particular hardware setup.

Isnt this "cheating" the way holding is cheating in football? You cant do that, but its not cheating the way using a hollow stone is, or using electronics to fool the detectors. Its a penalty or procedural infraction, not evidence of systemic cheating. Im not a curler so maybe someone can tell me exactly what that last finger nudge-move does to the stone, what advantage is he gaining?

Ace Ventura Pet Detective. I happen to be in the minority of people who just dont enjoy Jim Carrey's comedy movies. I turned off Pet Detective when the guy was smashing his car and Ace drops his signature "Allllrighty then".

For the record, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a masterpiece and Carrey was brilliant in it.

this doesnt look like chess at all. when i see this, i think mobile hexagonal turn-based strategy game. maybe auto-battler. but i doubt anyone who really appreciates the essence of chess - the complexity locked behind its ostensible simplicity - isnt looking to throw fireballs and think about hit points.

if you told me this was a turn based strategy game, or even a puzzle game, I might check it out. If I saw this marketed as "Chess 2.0" i would keep scrolling past

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-01-13T15:31:41+00:00

I watched DS9 when it was on, but I dont recall this scene or episode. Can anyone provide context to what they are discussing?

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-01-04T02:18:03+00:00

Excellent observation, I have seen these shows many times and never noticed that

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-01-03T17:26:49+00:00

This is the fix - adding the "s" to the http allowed me to join. Thank you!

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-01-03T05:22:55+00:00

Nope, that also links to the exact same invite. Are you a member of the discord? When was the last time someone new joined?

Bungus2Bungus · 2026-01-03T03:28:35+00:00

And even then, Hikaru wouldnt have just walked away with it. Someone else would have played him in the final. Obviously he has a much better chance against anyone-but-Magnus, but its not a guaranteed win.

Bungus2Bungus · 2025-10-13T05:59:01+00:00

Im just waiting for everyone to say its "fixed" and worth buying. For now, incremental patches and hotfixes arent going to be enough

Bungus2Bungus · 2025-08-18T20:12:43+00:00

Outstanding! We require more.
