when I was young, there were 2 of us in the group who preferred varicolored dice. The rest prefered same color sets, but only one player was argumentative about it.
one evening, the argumentative advocate of same color sets was having a long series of low d20s rolls. Hadn't rolled above 12 for the whole session. Near the end, he finally realized he'd used a d12 for an uknown number of d20 rolls. Maybe the whole night! And he was mad nobody had noticed.

I thought I saw an article about someone claiming to have "discovered new meaning" or some crap by using an LLM to "translate" the Voynich manuscript, back in 2022. Maybe @npub1ved…5w6p mentioned it, I'm not sure.

I'm imagining it like this: "The development of sheet metal enabled metal to borrow more extensively from music genres that relied heavily on sheet music, such as hymns and classical."

everyone criticizes Stegosaurus for having a brain the size of a carrot, but what if they hid their true intellect with steganography?
(ps: who hid eggnog in steganography??)

when Bilbo and the dwarves hide in barrels and float down the river to escape from the elves of Mirkwood, doesn't that river pass through a tunnel at a point near the dungeons of the elves?

one other thing: Wyoming is also overwhelmingly white.

Wyoming's major industries are mining and ranching. Wyoming has some of the largest coal deposits in the world, more cows than people, and more sheep than cows and people combined. In the usa, these are very conservative industires. It also has a culture steeped in guns and toxic masculinity.

in the USA in the 1980s, most magazines had a few articles in each issue that would have "continued on page <whatever>" about halfway through the article.

it should be obvious from the raids on personal data that "DOGE" has been making that elon's new business will be wave after wave of cybercrime. Not only does he plan to steal from the USA government, he'll steal from anyone whose data was collected by the USA government. Why should he care whether or not anyone buys a cybertruck when he can just steal their money directly, without the hassle of them getting a truck for it?

the hashtags #cats , #language , #starTrek , and #gardening seem active and appropriate. #renaissance is probably appropriate as well, but not very active.

maybe lure them to antarctica to investigate a paranormal phenomenon that is actually just the southern lights. : )

I feel like this isn't a new discovery??
Apparently the wikipedia page was started in 2018. Not sure whether 6 years old qualifies as new.

oh, I agree, I lean quite heavily on wikipedia, and on its sourcing, but sometimes there's no wikipedia page, or there's some edit war going on, or the page is just a bunch of [citation needed], etc.
