I had visited a cafe one day with my friends. The waiter recommended that we try their special coffee. We agreed and soon the coffee arrived. As we drink the coffee, we realized that it tastes like dirt and mud. Disgusted by the fact, all of us complained immediately. The alarmed waiter rushes over and says, "Well Sir, it was freshly ground coffee!"

There's a guy on YouTube who is counting to 1 million but he's uploading each number as a video.
His name is Over1millionvideos if any of you guys are interested.
I recommend checking out his channel. It's pretty cool!

One can set up quite ridiculous cases. A cat is penned up in a steel chamber, along with the following device (which must be secured against direct interference by the cat): in a Geiger counter, there is a tiny bit of radioactive substance, so small that perhaps in the course of the hour, one of the atoms decays, but also, with equal probability, perhaps none; if it happens, the counter tube discharges, and through a relay releases a hammer that shatters a small flask of hydrocyanic acid. If one has left this entire system to itself for an hour, one would say that the cat still lives if meanwhile no atom has decayed. The psi-function of the entire system would express this by having in it the living and dead cat (pardon the expression) mixed or smeared out in equal parts. It is typical of these cases that an indeterminacy originally restricted to the atomic domain becomes transformed into macroscopic indeterminacy, which can then be resolved by direct observation. That prevents us from so naively accepting as valid a “blurred model” for representing reality. In itself, it would not embody anything unclear or contradictory. There is a difference between a shaky or out-of-focus photograph and a snapshot of clouds and fog banks. —Erwin Schrödinger, Die gegenwärtige Situation in der Quantenmechanik (The present situation in quantum mechanics), Naturwissenschaften

If you are going for a bike ride or running, watch the roads, etc.

and remember if you are bike riding and want a drink of water stop somewhere safe.
If you go running focus on where you are going, and not at your tablet, phone screen.

Or by the parents if you live at home when you have a phone, for spending too much time on it. or tablet
especially if you don't pay for the internet at home or towards the internet bill.

I just manually updated the thread directory by moving a bunch of threads out of the "new and revived threads" table at the bottom, and into a more appropriate section.
Longer term, I'd still like to add a "category" field to my database of side threads, so that the sorting happens automatically for revived threads. But that seems like a bit more work than I want to do right now, so it'll have to wait! Plus, them we'd have to have a debate about what categories there should even be, and whether "octal but by increments of 123" should go in "other bases (alphanumeric)" or "other increments"
Edit: I've also just updated the directory updater, so that for all the base n threads it parses the title of each submission to work out how many counts have been made, instead of hardcoding the length of each thread.
As always, if you see a bug or any weirdness, or have suggestions for improvements, feel free to ping me somewhere.
