That reminds me, I was going to try and finish off getting the 100 of everything achievement, at which point I'd have all the normal achievements except the final CpS one (which just seems stupidly hard to achieve, I'm like 5% of the way there and thanks to the exponentially increasing costs... ugh).

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I've got 100 of everything except the Antimatter Condensers now...

Tables, for the CpS, did you try an Elder Frenzy? x666 production helps a lot

There has to be a market out there for a Candy Box or Cookie Clicker style game, but with beer.

That game already exists.  It's call alcoholism.

Well, "small" is relative. It doesn't look that small to me, judging from the amount of light pollution.

I've been wasting a bunch of time on this: http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/

I hate you all for introducing me to this. Sitting at 300,000,000 cps, 39 Antimatter condensers.

So now that I've discovered that you can hack the Javascript; I had a few minutes of fun looking through the code to find stuff to change; and now I'm done with the game for good. Just seems pointless if you can just give yourself all achievements and more with a simple hack.

Cheated cookies taste awful, it ruins the game.  Don't cheat, and the game never runs out.

Two things.  First, I reached one quintillion cookies today.

Second, this is really interesting:
http://bit-player.org/2013/the-keys-to-the-keydom

Some group gathered millions of public RSA keys from around the internet (each of which is the product of two large primes), and after discarding duplicates they ran the Euclidean algorithm on them to find pairs which shared a factor.  Out of the 5.8 million unique public keys gathered, they found that about 64,000 -- around 0.05% -- shared factors.  That makes them useless for security purposes.  It is unfathomable that this could be the result of chance, and so excluding conspiracy theories, it appears to indicate serious flaws in our pseudorandom number generators.

Also,


I feel like they just put the cookie on a pressure plate under those pieces of paper... but still, pretty cool.

And that's ridiculous and kinda scary about the keys...

Nah, I think they just used something like this, attached to a cookie.

That is truly strange.  I mean, is it reasonable to assume that these common factors were each generated by different PRNGs?  Or is there the possibility that multiples were generated by the same PRNG, without proper re-seeding?
