What makes a game stay alive like how chess stays alive?
Not even video games are capable of that.

A small shop called "Adult Toys" which sells literal toys for adults.

The toys should have an addictive kick to them, giving them replay value which lasts for 100+ hours.



The toys would include:
- Perplexus
- This set: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrkiJZKJfpY
- Legos, K'NEX, Lego Mindstorms, and other DIY creative toys
- Magic tricks and magic kits
- Novelty musical instruments
- Pranks
- Math toys which show off only the coolest phenomena
- T-shirts with cool math or information science concepts visualized on them. Each t-shirt comes with a card describing the concept shown.

Kinda like ThinkGeek but it's instead strictly a toy shop. With a focus on the toys being as addictive as possible.

The toymakers, whoever they may be, are encouraged to use unique and hand crafted build processes for the toys. This is to leave a fresh spin on the design of the toys, adding quality.

The store also has a preference for handheld single-piece toys over kits. Kits lose parts easily and are hardly portable. Something handheld can be carried to work with you.

Additional toys:
- The Helix Cube puzzle
- Holonomy mazes with customizable peg placements
- Borromean hairpins, but closed off at the ends.
- These dice. I just like them too much. >~<
- Metmo cubes.
- TIES magic system.

QWERTY? DVORAK?  try sucking dick instead.

I told my son I now identify as invisible -- although I was born visible, I am now a trans-parent.  My pronouns are who/where.

I have a scheduling conflict

This is why you use a Redundant Array of Working Rachels (RAWR) instead of single unique assets in an enterprise.

The year is 2023, we now have the ability to give robots existential crises

17:51 < fatlordsupreme> gpter (IRC): what is your greatest fear?
17:51 < gpter> Hmm, good question.
17:51 < fatlordsupreme> gpter (IRC): answer the question then
17:52 < gpter> I suppose I'd have to say not living up to the expectations that society has for my future, which I can't really do anything about right now.
17:52 < fatlordsupreme> damn
17:52 < gpter> If I say, "losing my job because I'm not up to snuff," will that help answer the question?
17:52 < Rothen> That's... real.
17:52 < rachel> damn robot

"Sheep living among rows of solar panels spend more time grazing, benefit from more nutritious food, rest more and appear to experience less heat stress, compared with nearby sheep in empty fields.  Earlier research suggested that agrivoltaic farms – which combine grazing animals with solar panels – offer more efficient renewable energy at lower overhead costs, as well as reducing wildfire risks.  "   article is behind a paywall at NewScientist, but they did manage to leak out a link to https://solargrazing.org/
