absurdle, the game is being kinda lewd 

@eldang @compostablespork @antifuchs If you’ve gotten a word before, the same set of guesses will reliably produce the same result so i’m sure it’s theoretically possible?

eliminating all the vowels that aren’t in your target in your first few guesses would certainly tip the odds in your favor

@ljwrites my personal preference would be for a completely separate freeform tags field that's separate from the body of the post (like blogs have)

@Lady on the other hand, i saw a lot less proof that being spread out helps than i expected

@fribbledom well there’s a lot of ‘i’ve never heard of this novel and have no idea when it was published’ once you start getting too far in, but it’s an interesting game!

@Anke wordle is a game where you try to guess a secret word every day (everyone gets the same word) and it responds by coloring the letters with how close you are — grey means wrong letter, yellow means right letter but wrong place, and green is right letter right place

Since the words are universal, it’s considered spoilers to post your actual results, so people post abstractions with emoji that just show the feedback without telling anyone what their guesses are

@tozka esp considering that this is text, the glasses wont be in the way unless someone writes them to be that way

@tozka i think a lot of non-glasses wearers just assume that everyone is nearsighted, in which case taking your glasses off makes more sense?

I don't know what the asterisks are going to be (besides stable address, obviously) or whether this is going to be more than a one-time "we did it, now shut up" blip in a long-term problem, but apparently the US government is planning to send out four rapid tests per household next week covidtests.gov/

@neauoire also implied though not explicitly stated is that the lung damage from inhaling smoke from synthetic products can be much more serious — not the way they were able to watch the wool fire from a relatively close distance without concern but were warned back from the polyester fire because of the ‘toxic smoke’

@prehensile making a point about bathroom bills the weird way

@flip @sunbather @maxc @oppen most of these are thirty years old — they could probably have done without the various scorchings but the wood is perfectly solid

@flip i’m not a wood carver, but i’ve been stirring pans full of all sorts of soups and sauces with unfinished plain wooden spoons for years and never had any issues so I’m not sure you’d need to do anything in particular?

Is the concern that it wont get a chance to fully try between uses or

@platypus @alpine_thistle in addition to being themselves important, lower body joint issues tend to travel upwards — so if you don’t take care of your feet, you can very well end up with knee / hip / lower back pain too

(Which is why my podiatrist is always looking Concerned when I come in, oops)

Lewd (work, a T shirt) 

@compostablespork i mean even if the nice round hadnt been minimized that’d still be a bit lewd 😆

@cassolotl@queer.party arent they going bankrupt?
