Some questions
I have some questions:
1. Is there a minimal age for joining conwaylife?
2. Who is unname66609?
3. Does LifeWiki store the IP Addresses of users?
Ok! That will be it for now

Re: Some questions
The terms and conditions shown when you first register say nothing about age, and I think the youngest member here, Gustavo, is 11 or 12 - so no.Saka wrote:1. Is there a minimum age for joining conwaylife?
Just another forum user as far as I can tell. They probably live in or near China. Why do you ask?2. Who is unname66609?
Yes.3. Does LifeWiki store the IP Addresses of users?

2. Because he never really posts anything... (just things like "what is sesame oil?"
3. Ok
And by the the way did you notice the second "a" I put in number 1? There's also something else about this line...

Re: Some questions
Hmm... Technically, it's perfectly possible, but I can hardly imagine a six-year-old doing stuff like this. If he/she decides to join, definitely tell me the username. If that person achieves anything, I will clap.Saka wrote:1. So it's ok if a a six year old joins?
So do you think unname is a bot? It is not probable since he/she used to post some relevant content. Unname is just a strange guy, like Gustavo raised to the 10th power.Saka wrote:2. Because he never really posts anything... (just things like "what is sesame oil?"

There are 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don't.

Okay. I just used Gustavo as an example because the normal forum age limit (due to COPPA) is 13.Sarp wrote:Nope I'm younger

Re: Some questions
A question:
Are there any catalogues of LWSS collisions? Or other *WSS collisions?
Are there any catalogues of LWSS collisions? Or other *WSS collisions?
Only two things are constant: change and the speed of light.
Re: Some questions
Meaning, a collection of syntheses where the recipes involve colliding LWSSes instead of colliding gliders? For the second question, are combinations of LWSS, MWSS, and HWSS allowed, or should a single recipe have only one kind of *WSS?The Turtle wrote:Are there any catalogues of LWSS collisions? Or other *WSS collisions?
In any case, I think the answer is no -- nothing really organized, anyway, because no one has had a long-term use for it. It's fairly easy to put together the beginnings of such a collection by running gencols for a while, along these general lines.
If you just want a table of two-*WSS collisions, that's very easy to generate with gencols. Maybe someone has a stamp collection lying around already.
I've been curious for a while now about construction mechanisms using *WSS slow salvos -- though not curious enough yet to do the research myself, apparently. Seems as if slow LWSSes would probably be just about as effective as gliders for building self-constructing circuitry, and Geminoid construction-arm elbows can be programmed to produce *WSSes instead of gliders. It's several times more expensive, but it allows for four new construction directions.

I know I found a while back that LWSS slow salvos can move a blinker anywhere, but I can't find it anywhere but in a quote in the Accidental Discoveries thread.dvgrn wrote:I've been curious for a while now about construction mechanisms using *WSS slow salvos -- though not curious enough yet to do the research myself, apparently.

of flowers, to jump universes to one of springtime in
a land of former winter, where no invisible walls stood,
or could stand for more than a few hours at most...

Re: Some questions
What's with the alternating shades of the posts? Sometimes, tables/lists do that so you can keep track of which item is which, but I don't see how it helps here. Besides, there's almost no difference in the colors.
There is life on Mars. We put it there with not-completely-sterilized rovers.
And, for that matter, the Moon, Jupiter, Titan, and 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko.

Re: Some questions
I only noticed when I tried to make the background of my profile photo the color of the posts. As you can see, the colors match up perfectly here, but they don't in the last post.

I never noticed that before. Anyway, can't you just make the background of your avatar transparent?

Re: Some questions
I might be able to, but I only know how to edit images through Paint, which is like crappy Photoshop that comes with windows.

Re: Some questions
Click the checkbox to the right, then choose "Delete marked" at the bottom, from the dropdown where it normally says "Mark/Unmark as important".BlinkerSpawn wrote:On this note, how do I delete read private messages?gameoflifemaniac wrote:Does Nathaniel have access to private messages?
Surprisingly well hidden, isn't it? It's a very clever design -- keeps you from deleting things accidentally (or on purpose).
Re: Some questions
In theory, yes. PMs are stored as plain text in the database and while there is no direct ability within phpbb for the admin to read PMs, any person or program (such as backup software) with access to the database has access to the content of private messages. I see no reason to be concerned about this.gameoflifemaniac wrote:Does Nathaniel have access to private messages?
The 5S project (Smallest Spaceships Supporting Specific Speeds) is now maintained by AforAmpere. The latest collection is hosted on GitHub and contains well over 1,000,000 spaceships.
