The only thing that sucks more than chat on mobile is twitch on mobile. :(

Alex A.

@Shog9 We gotta turn those frowns upside downs.

Doorknob

@Sp3000 If passing were allowed, then it would just be 1. Ka7, pawn is forced to pass, and then 2. Kxa6.

quartata

Ha

Shog9

@RikerW what, you aren't using the new mobile ui?

Sp3000

Ah, right. There'd be no stalemate.

RikerW

3:00 AM

No.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@quartata You think it's good?

@Sp3000 Yeah

Poor u

wat new mobile ui?

You should hang out in The Tavern more. Then you wouldn't be so behind the times.

RikerW

3:01 AM

@AlexA. ಠ‾ಠ

:P

Doorknob

I saw discussion in Tavern about said mobile UI but I never figured out how to enable it

quartata

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I think you should add a test case that's a palindrome with no letters like Elendia suggested

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Oh yeah

quartata

Also mention that it's case-insensitive

Other than that it's good

RikerW

@Doorknob do you like door handles? Not doorknobs, door handles?

Atbash Self Palindromes Consider the following transformation: A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K|L|M Z|Y|X|W|V|U|T|S|R|Q|P|O|N Where A ⇔ Z and L ⇔ O, e.g. There is an interesting property that some words share. When some strings are translated to their atbash-equivalent, said translation is the original ...

Shog9

Did you change your avatar, @Doorknob?

RikerW

Yes.

I don't like it as much.

Shog9

It's looking more... Feminine

RikerW

Doorknob

@RikerW such blasphemy that would be

@Shog9 It's butternut squash

quartata

2 days ago, by Alex A.

It went from 6/10 very phallic to 2/10 fairly phallic.

RikerW

@Calvin'sHobbies you always have random comments. :P

Doorknob

@quartata For the record, he lowered it to 1.5. :P

RikerW

@quartata rofl

It doesn't look like a 1.5 when big with desktop notification...

gtg now.

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ seems dece

@quartata why does everyone unconditionally love carl swaggin?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

coolieo

quartata

Wait

"$%%$" this is false?

Why?

Alex A.

@orlp Who in the world is Carl Swaggin?

quartata

@AlexA. runner

Carl Sagan

ooh this 96 exit race is going to be awesome

Alex A.

Calvin's Hobbies

quartata

@PhiNotPi AGDQ is basically the greatest thing known to mankind

orlp

@Doorknob it is a warning

quartata

3:08 AM

@Doorknob No watch

It's for charity

orlp

of the grave consequences

quartata

They raised $1 million last year

orlp

that will come to you if you do not watch

Doorknob

@quartata Don't watch? Okay. :P

quartata

It's awesome and a good cause

@Doorknob watch

orlp

3:08 AM

seriously

the run coming up

quartata

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ why is $%%$ false?

orlp

plays the game in such a way that it reprograms the game to instantly go to the credits screen

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@quartata Idk

It's not atbash?

quartata

I don't see how we should handle that.

orlp

it is literally the ultimate glitch

quartata

3:09 AM

So, no alphabetic letters = false always?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

yeah

quartata

Seems arbitrary.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

I added that in the body...

@quartata I flipped a coin. Very arbitrary.

Alex A.

@Shog9 Are you going to stick around and partake in a wee bit o' code golf?

orlp

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ how did you flip it?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

3:10 AM

@orlp ... I took my money and flicked in the sky

Doorknob

> a wee bit o'

orlp

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ but did you catch it or let the coin land?

Alex A.

@Doorknob u hurd me

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@orlp It actually landed on it's side first. So I got a new coin.

:P

In all seriousness, I let it fall.

orlp

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ terrible

Doorknob

3:11 AM

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ It landed on it is side?

orlp

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ that creates a significant bias

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Doorknob Not really :P

Doorknob

Also, did you happen to be in any octarine-rich areas?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@orlp Should I flip it again?

orlp

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ yes, and catch it in your hand

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

3:11 AM

@Doorknob Diskworld fan?

Shog9

@AlexA. not unless you mean baggy pants, lots of drinks, and not much actual golfing.

orlp

or in a soft cloth

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@orlp okay

Heads, it's false. Tails, it's true.

Shog9

In which case, already there

Doorknob

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Could you tell? :P

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

3:12 AM

flips

tails

It becomes true @quartata

@Doorknob No, actually. I had to google it.

quartata

Awesome

That means I don't have to change my solution :3

orlp

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

quartata

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Only sequences of the same characters can return true

quartata

Shameless advertising for the design chat room in case a certain someone's wandering eyes reads this post: chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/33840/…

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

quartata

What the hell this is totally different from the 0 exit I remembered

Did they change this

It never involved PI

orlp

@quartata seems this is marathon strats

Doorknob

PhiNotPi

Alex A.

@Shog9 Sounds pretty good. I'm not a fan of Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey; is it better than that?

Shog9

3:19 AM

@AlexA. yes. Actually tastes like cinnamon

Alex A.

Nice

Shog9

Remember Big Red gum? Like drinking that.

quartata

dots screwed it up lmao

Alex A.

orlp

3:22 AM

@quartata not 0 exit doe

quartata

Doorknob

@grc No, because the pawn can move 2 spaces on the first move

The Touhou Project (東方Project, Tōhō Purojekuto, lit. Eastern Project), also known as Toho Project or Project Shrine Maiden, is a Japanese dōjin game series focused on bullet hell shooters made by the one-man developer Team Shanghai Alice, whose sole member, known as ZUN, is responsible for all the graphics, music, and programming for the most part. The series was inducted into the Guinness World Records in October 2010 for being the "most prolific fan-made shooter series". The Touhou Project began in 1995 when Highly Responsive to Prayers was first developed by the group Amusement Makers for the...

@Calvin'sHobbies True.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@RikerW It's not that: it's a bad and highly insulting "argument" against my faith.

Calvin's Hobbies

And small dragons in caps

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Calvin'sHobbies :3 those are the cutest

RikerW

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ What is your faith?

Christianity/Catholic?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@RikerW Christianity.

Not Catholic, that's a little different.

RikerW

3:35 AM

Same.

\o/

I am christian too.

The more you know.

I am not offended though ...

El'endia Starman

It's not really an argument against Christianity...

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

3:35 AM

I'm rather into apologetics, so I am :P

@El'endiaStarman "God makes just as much sense as a giant floating pasta creature?" Never heard that one before?

El'endia Starman

...maybe I should finish that blog post on apologetics I started a while ago...

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

(this probably off-topic :P)

@El'endiaStarman Maybe.

orlp

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ No one argues that it makes as much sense, the argument is that it has just as much proof.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@orlp Ah, yes, thank you.

My mind is fried.

El'endia Starman

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Not exactly, but I just see it as poking fun at Christianity. Not exactly offensive, not to me anyway.

orlp

3:37 AM

And that argument is simply true.

Your faith wouldn't be faith, if it was proven.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@orlp I'd argue that, but it's not the time nor place.

El'endia Starman

This is definitely the place, though:

@PhiNotPi whose side are you on? .___.

I can only do so much

El'endia Starman

"Side"? >_>

Alex A.

@PhiNotPi My appendages are vaguely noodly

PhiNotPi

3:47 AM

I'm not a theist.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@El'endiaStarman It's an argument/debate, right? Or did I just jump to that point o_o

@PhiNotPi okay

El'endia Starman

Depending on what you mean by "noodly", I could have anywhere between 0 and...uh...12 noodly appendages.

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I think that setting things up (or perceiving them to be) as an argument or debate when it arises out of casual conversation is perhaps not all that constructive.
