Even the fingers that touched her...😳

Interesting topic 🍿

I’m a total newbie when it comes to this stuff, but reading 😁 was actually pretty interesting.

Do you have Facebook? 😁

Chloe Cooper10 said:And who exactly was touching his fingers? 😳

I have golden touch—you don't just bite into things like that without consequence. 🤣

I'm a complete novice in this field, but it's an interesting read. 😁

There are certainly some intriguing aspects to uncover here. 😁

I suppose I finished that quite some time ago, though I find that memories can be rather fragile things 😁

And honestly, who doesn't enjoy a bit of playfulness 🤣
Though it does somewhat remind me of Operation Swordfish 🤣
Which was quite a parody, if you ask me

The idea of hacking seems a bit silly. I imagine a self-respecting engineer wouldn't stoop to such low-level tactics just to go around "hacking" things, would they?

Action movies, in general, seem to be parodies themselves. I can't quite recall the name of that one movie where an action hero just types "override all security" in a single scene and instantly gains access to the entire system. 🤣

I suppose we could say that about every single second of our lives. 😬

Anyway, how might one actually write a program capable of solving the Queen's puzzle?🍿

Yes indeed.

I suppose he was attempting to pull off that 'akiro' move earlier, though it seems like that blonde lady might have somewhat distracted him from his focus. 😬

Gregory Smith21 said:He was probably going to pull that 'akiro' move—if that blonde hadn't completely thrown him off his game. 😬

Yeah—honestly, he would have had it sorted out the second he fired up the PC. 😬

I find myself utterly perplexed by the fact that this forum doesn't offer a functional way to actually delete one's own user account...

The technology is just outdated.
Even when you change your handle—it only updates your own posts, rather than where others have quoted you, for example.

Besides, that kind of behavior isn't exactly popular—just look at the process on Facebook if you actually want to kill an account...

Anyway, how have you been?

Admins can go ahead and delete if they need to. Does this forum even have an option to just wipe my own user account? 🤔

Hey, check this out 🙂

Anthony Nguyen81 said:The technology is just outdated...
Even if you decide to change your handle, you really ought to go back and edit your own posts specifically, rather than assuming it magically updates everywhere someone else has quoted you, for instance...

And frankly, that kind of behavior isn't exactly well-received around here, so if you're looking for how to shut down an account, maybe take a look at the protocols they have over on Facebook...

Anyway, how have you been lately?

Well, I don't see much point in getting into a heated debate about how things "should" be done...

I am quite familiar with the process on Facebook. You essentially spend a month waiting for them to actually purge your data. It is more a question of sheer persistence than anything else...😁

To me, it all feels like a mere technicality. As far as their attitude toward programming goes, they honestly don't seem any different from a group of people who are way, way younger...😁

Cool 👍

It makes sense for bots 😬

I am well aware of how the process works on Facebook. You basically sit around for a month waiting for them to actually wipe your data. It really comes down to a matter of persistence. 😁

P.S. This is a great topic;

A Buddhist monk once gave a young trainee the task of meditating for precisely 45 minutes. The problem is, he doesn't have a clock or a stopwatch; all he has are two incense sticks, each of which takes exactly one hour to burn, though they happen to burn at different rates.

I suppose the question is, how might this young trainee use those two sticks to measure out exactly 45 minutes? 🍿

Watch out, bluebadger112😍

It won't. And hey, let's not clutter things up with random spam—just get the job done ☕

He just needs one stick—specifically, one without its top quarter. 😬

Gregory Smith21 said:A Buddhist monk gave a young trainee the task of meditating for exactly 45 minutes. He doesn't have a watch, just two incense sticks that each burn for one hour, but they burn at different rates!

How on earth is that young monk supposed to measure out exactly 45 minutes using nothing but those sticks? 🍿

Wait, can he light them from both ends?
Because if he can, then here's the trick:
If you light one stick at both ends, once it's completely gone, exactly thirty minutes have passed.

Actually, he should probably light the second one at the same time! So, he lights both sticks like this:
- one at both ends
- the other at just one end

--> Once that first stick burns out, thirty minutes have flown by. Perfect! At that exact moment, he just needs to light the other end of the second stick—since that one has already been burning for half an hour and has thirty minutes left, lighting the other side will make it finish in just 15 minutes.

😁

But honestly, how is a young Buddhist supposed to actually meditate if he has to constantly worry about managing all those burning incense sticks? 🧐
