In case the author sees this:

> none of the possible drives you might to do get there are especially scenic

that should say "might do to get there" not "might to do get there" (and also "none...is especially" not "none...are" but I would not go out of my way to point that one out)

yeah, but I was a math major and theta looks like a normal letter to me whereas thorn takes me a sec to realize what I'm looking at

I like the katakana idea, I wonder if I can train myself to recognize the Su one enough to start using that when I'm handwriting days of the week places

I think they mean writing Tu Th Sa Su instead of T T S S (personally I'm a fan of T / theta if I'm doing single-letter abbreviations but Sat/Sun is still not the best)

Interesting haha, I've played enough NYT connections that I would never have gotten it on my own because when I thought of the correct word with sauce, I thought "_ crab" ? no, can't be that...

(author here) I listen to audiobooks a lot and need something to occupy me visually without distracting from listening to the audio. Jigsaw puzzles are perfect for it :)

Author here; almost certainly this is true

I am a small person without access to power tools and didn't have much help for the project, so anything that heavy was out of the question (and the puzzle is huge). Otherwise I would have quite possibly done this!

> You'd think that this would not appeal to anyone,

Why would this not appeal to anyone? Summer reading games are super popular and kids love getting small prizes

Just know them no. Able to sanity check that an RGB value is the color it's supposed to be yes sometimes. It's not the most useful skill because you almost always get a swatch now, but sometimes being able to have some idea of how it'll look (should it be dark or light, grey or intense color) saves me 10 seconds here and there.

I like playing guess-RGB games every now and then because it improves the skill, but at the same time I find them really stressful haha.

I was a math major in undergrad, we care about typesetting so much because you really do not want to be stuck handwriting everything, but it's not easy to be faster typing than you are with handwriting when you're writing out rows and rows of equations. (Actually physics was generally a lot harder for me to keep up with while typing than math was.)

And when your life is revolving around classes or your thesis, the #1 most important thing to you in the world is how easily you can transfer your ideas to paper/digital format. It makes a lot of sense that people care a lot about the quality of their typesetting engine and exchange macro tips with each other (I got a lot of helpful advice from friends, and my default latex header was about 50% my own stuff and 50% copied from friends in my same major)

Why does it play an artificial voice saying "Number 9" over and over in between clips in Revolution 9 mode? it's super annoying especially given the clips are shorter

But this is really cool! I've gotten some animal sounds, weather sounds, music, a small kid talking about a soccer match in Spanish, "evil laugh", political speeches in several languages, and a telephone ringing. only pressed skip a couple times for some really unpleasant noises
