I'm back.

Of course no one cares so...

Megatight useless xs40 predecessor

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 17, rule = B3/S23

4bo!
some code which took me 2 hours to write since I'm still bad at python

Code: Select all

# Generates RLEs based on random pronounceable apgcodes.
import random
apgcode = ''
vowels = ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u']
consonants = ['b', 'd', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'p', 'r', 's', 't', 'v']
for i in range(random.randint(15, 30)):
 if (i % 2 == 1):
   apgcode = apgcode + random.choice(vowels)
 else:
   apgcode = apgcode + random.choice(consonants)
apgchars = '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
arr = [['.']*len(apgcode) for _ in range(5)]
a = 1
b = 1
for i in apgcode:
q = bin(apgchars.index(i))
for j in q:
  if (j == '1'):
    arr[4 - (b - 3 + (7 - len(q)))][a - 1] = 'o'
  b += 1
a += 1
b = 1
print("#C apgcode = " + apgcode)
print('x = 0, y = 0, rule = B3/S23')
for i in range(5):
for j in range(len(apgcode)):
  print(arr[i][j], end='')
print('$')

Yes, but ensuring that positive and negative cells would stay in balance would be tricky, at least with certain interpretations of negatively alive cells.
I tried. Negative cells add -1 to neighbor count, so they follow B-3/S-2-3. To make it more interesting, I also made it so that cells with 6 neighbors would change color.
Yes; that could keep the positive and negative cells in balance. Good idea.
I am tentatively considering myself back.

The past tense of "snow" is "snew"

Post by praosylen » October 26th, 2020, 10:51 am

WikiReader was a project to deliver an offline, text-only version of Wikipedia on a mobile device.[1] The project was sponsored by Openmoko and made by Pandigital, and its source code has been released.[2]

The project debuted an offline portable reader for Wikipedia in October 2009.[1] Updates in multiple languages were available online[3][dead link] [4] and a twice-yearly offline update service delivered via Micro SD card was also available at a cost of $29 per year. Wikireader versions of the English Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikiquote and Project Gutenberg can be installed together on a user-supplied 16 GB Micro SDHC Memory Card. Unlike Wikipedia itself, the device features parental controls.[5]

The device can also run programs written in Forth; a simple calculator program is included.[6]

In late 2014, the WikiReader website and project itself were shut down and abandoned for unknown reasons. Existing WikiReaders no longer receive updates to their database. Devices and homegrown updates are only available from the secondary markets.

no it isn't
it's clearly "snidw" (c.f. do, did)

Is the past participle snew, snewn, snown, snone, snonew, or snay?

New findings suggest that an alloy of 1 part sir robin and 5 parts glider has velocity (17,19)c/72. However, due to the scarcity of natural sir robins -- zero are known in nature-- they must be constructed in a time consuming manner using search programs. As a result, this alloy has not yet been constructed in measurable amounts. Other promising results include an alloy of 8 parts glider and 1 spider to produce a (11,10)c/45 spaceship, and 5 parts weekender with 2 lwss to produce a 17c/49 orthogonal spaceship (the true period has not yet been tested as the quantity of weekenders required is so large that it is very expensive to experiment with

The irony is that even though this was clearly meant to be a joke, this actually makes sense in a way. For example, the spaghetti monster travels at 3c/7 by switching between c/2 and c/3 forward movement mechanisms, and 2c/5 spaceships do the same thing. Also, the weekender switches between c/3 and c/4 forward movement mechanisms.
I am tentatively considering myself back.

That's called the mediant. It actually has valid uses, such as when combining samples.
