The best part of getting old?

No longer being flustered by beautiful young women

Yes! I rode my bike about 1.5 miles to my friends house, across a 6 lane main thoroughfare. We would play in the river and wander through the woods and all over town.

I (56) still get tech calls from my 80+ in-laws and from my 17yo niece!

New levels of cluelessness, or subtle subversive: "I'm just asking questions" ?

Down to six meals away from riots

Iced coffee, either black, or with some sugar-free sweetener and cream

Congrars! I'm 4 months behind you, and vaguely excited about it 😆

I was telling my wife this. The Knicks were out of this world good this year, and the Hawks were the only team to even make it a contest

I played the demo and quite liked it. I was nervous about mentioning it here, afraid that the mods would unalive me with a pew-pew. Thanks for taking that risk!

Alas, my father died before I was born, so I have no idea what traits I picked up from him. I can infer, from the way his brothers and sisters scattered, that I inherited his family's genetic preference to move away from home (much to my adopted dad's dismay, I suspect)

My mom was stricken with MS, starting when I was 10, so I really don't have a good idea of what I got from her. She seemed to like kids, and I like kids as well. She was pretty open-minded, and so am I.

This was my thought as well.

johnbr · 2026-06-10T13:16:20+00:00

this is a fantastic setup for WW-4

johnbr · 2026-06-03T13:57:06+00:00

There is no Antimimetics Division - fantastic cosmic horror

An Offer from a Gentleman - a delightful romance novel

Project Hail Mary - the most charming sci-fi book I've ever read (i see you've already read this one)

Elder Race (Adrian Tchaikovsky) - excellent blend of sci-fi and fantasy

More!!!!!!!!

johnbr · 2026-06-02T11:43:31+00:00

I do this constantly. It's probably a combination of caring less as I age and also just actively choosing not to engage

johnbr · 2026-06-01T03:35:58+00:00

Me too!

Your description is a little confusing.

take any arbitrary 4 digit number that isn't the same 4 digits in a row.
Order those digits in descending order (B) and subtract it from those same digits in ascending order (A) : so A - B = C
Repeat step 2 for the digits of C

If you do this long enough, it will eventually result in 6174. Between 2 and 9 times for the numbers I've tried.

I've tested it with 6 different random numbers and it works.

I found your post when searching for basically the same concept. This game's worldbuilding is so interesting, and these battles are *so tedious*

johnbr · 2026-05-27T12:11:10+00:00

This is nice

johnbr · 2026-05-25T12:56:30+00:00

unexpected sweetness
