I personally am a big fan of cakey doughnuts...

[ashersky]

SadlyLuckily, I grew up in Dunkin Donuts' hometown.  The entire Northeast is devoid of quality coffee houses becauseexcept for of Dunkin Donuts

Fixed.

Seriously?  They smell funny, the seating is general rather poor, and until recently many tended not to even have decent wifi.  I also remember them not offering soy milk and insisting upon serving coffee in Styrofoam cups even when I ordered it "for here".

I like the burnt, oily, styrofoamed coffee of DD because it, like baseball, is the epitome of 'mericaness.

I mean, hey, here in Australia, I've got so many amazing coffee options that doesn't matter.  But I used to get a gigantic DD coffee on my way to work in the freezing snow of DC many a time and was happier for it.

Side note: who gets anything "for here" in a DD?

[WanderingWinder]

Still can't get above 8,000 over 9000. 

FTFY

Getting closer with 11684 and a 1024.

Well done Jimmmmm!

If you like that, give Threes a try on iOS and android.

Worm was great. Tattletale OP.

It's neat how the story goes from "huh, Tattletale is pretty OP" to "WOW Tattletale is OP", but it never feels like she dominates or overpowers the rest of the cast.

Is the 4096 thing legit, or is it shopped?  How is that even possible?

No, it's legit.

No, it's legit.

How is it even possible though?  My game ends immediately upon getting a 2048 block, and blocks don't double collapse.  If I have four 2s in a row, collapsing them gives me two 4s next to each other, not a single 8.

It gives you the option of continuing.

Wait whaaaat.  I clearly do not read end game screens clearly.  I am now very sad that I just quit out of a game I just finished.  I had SO much empty space after getting this 2048, thanks to a beautiful chain of snaking blocks from 8 all the way to 1024... it was my best one yet.

Not as good as Jimmmm's, but I actually know what I'm doing now.

Surely it needs to be confirmed by more experiements, but I'm not as negative as that comment.  I think that there is still a reasonable chance that magnetic monopole exist.  Also, the possibility of an inflaton field certainly feels a hell of a lot more likely after the confirmation of the Higgs field.  After all, the Higgs field is a fundamental scalar field just like the inflaton field.  And the Higgs field was invented ad hoc to explain perplexing phenomena in a way not terribly unlike the inflaton field.

Well I was referring less to the content or merit of the comments, but more to their inflammatory nature.

Eh, sounds like a known crackpot being a crackpot and nothing more.

Quite probably, I didn't really look into it.  But he got called out pretty hard on it

Anyhow, today's announcement was pretty much the best evidence to date that universes beyond our own exist.
