Famous Quotes

A forum where anything goes. Introduce yourselves to other members of the forums, discuss how your name evolves when written out in the Game of Life, or just tell us how you found it. This is the forum for "non-academic" content.

zdr is a problem with the community because he will not reveal his name or the techniques used to find the spaceship. I have reached out to him to get his details out, but it seems he's a "hit-and-run" user who only cares about the fame.

Conway's Life is a field of mathematics; like all fields of mathematics the research into it is open and honest. Yet zdr is selfish (for the reasons mentioned above). What can we do about this?

It's also unfortunate that it doesn't work with any of the p2^n oscillators I tried to use, but that's not as great of an issue.

Although we each search for conduits manually, AbhpzTa and I are not the same person.

I was going to edit this to finish my thought because I hit the enter key too soon but it's perfect
Context:

me: what are the longest words you've constructed [in your conlang]
saka: ahem

You will start to regret burning (our) meat
you could just keep going theoretically
but it would start to stop making sense as to why you're putting all that in one word

I'll start with the most famous of all:

For the record, this was a typo (in Discord). This is what I meant to post:
Someone who doesn't want to deal with moderator action shouldn't be claiming to possess contraband, publicly intending to distribute said contraband, doing either specifically in a post that a moderator is expected to read, or attempting to bribe a moderator.
I am tentatively considering myself back.
