It's a variable. The unknown.

Obviously around 10 milliamps. Enough to shock you, but not enough to cause any harm.

Of course this depends completely on the voltage.

There is a tension joke in here, but I just can't make it work.

While I don't expect to get a real answer on that question; there's a chance we might get one here: Is the X your actual middle initial, or a chosen nickname?

I would say "Ohm my", but I know that in this case resistance is futile.

Why does this always seem to devolve into a bad puns thread?

That's pretty cagey, I don't get what you mean.

This thread had lots of potential, but now it’s come full circuit and run aground.
At the current rate, some live wire is going to get charged with assault and battery.
Let’s crank some AC/DC, keep it positive, and let Donald field some questions.
Got any good leads?

I can quietly appreciate an unfunny pun that's clever enough, but mostly I only like them when they're also jokes.

No, or none that would really count. I've made some pencil puzzles, but only easier-to-make things.

Those aren't mutually exclusive, so I don't think that's precisely the question you meant to ask. I'll answer the question you meant to ask though: the ship of Theseus in the fable. Only instead of replacing planks, they just keep adding new ones, until the harbor is full of boat.

What's your policy on commenting about the current state of the 2017 client? Are you going to post on the ShuffleIt forums at all? The "Features" forum, in particular, has a lot of requests to bring the client up to par with the MF features.

Overall I think the new client looks promising, but it's still clearly inferior to the MF implementation. I know it'll get better -- I'm just hoping it happens fast enough not to turn away players.

Right now I have 19 posts on the Shuffle iT forums.

I'm not sure what your first question is asking. If you mean, how much will I be commenting on it, probably not much; I don't want to be viewed as promising things or being able to provide things, on this project that isn't mine. And after having accomplished that, I don't want to be unfriendly towards them. I have a contract with RGG that lets RGG sub-license digital rights; they have a contract with Shuffle iT; Shuffle iT is making the program. Any involvement I have with the online version is just me being friendly or stupid or both, same as before.

If you mean, how much do I think you should be commenting on it, man that's between you and them. That stream thing was public, so surely they expect people to talk about it in public?

Oh, you're posting on secret boards that I don't have access to. :) I just checked your post list, and it's empty from my perspective.

I guess my first question is mostly along the lines of are you going to say things like "I don't like how this specific thing is implemented -- personally I'd prefer it to work like this." Obviously, they can implement it however they want, but you do have a lot of clout. Sounds like your answer is "probably not much" though.

I have said some things like that. Mostly I feel like, there must be so many people complaining about these things; that job is covered.

Where are these forums? I realize there are probably various levels of access. Is there a part of them for the public, and what's the link?
