Ever seen a "maybe dexterity and agility should different stats" -> "there are aleph null stats" speedrun?

'Modern BASIC' is a contradiction in terms. It was obsolete before it was invented.

And twenty lines of code in your language of choice. (BASIC may be the third worst language there is but for this application it would be traditional.)

Wow, it Whoa, it does. (In my experience, a) favicon support varies so much between browsers that it's a curiosity, nothing more and b) my browser shows favicons so small you need a microscope to see them anyway.)

I'm perfectly content for Aslan claws to just be claws. (Similar to the hani. In the books, a human who through odd circumstances became crew on a hani ship improvised fake claws to use hani 'keyboards'...)

Why climb the highest mountain? Why, 100 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?

In my experience combat in FG is pretty smooth... or would be if someone (they know who they are) would remember to set their targets.

I may have been subconsciously thinking of that. Never met any Trinocs...

Ever circumnavigate the galaxy? You see, something really stressful was going on and I needed something pointless and mind-numbing to do...

...more work for whom? I wouldn't ever use some kind of Imperial Citizen Number at my table, for the simple reason that it brings nothing to the, uh, table. Really, what problem is trying to be solved here?

I would be very polite if I was on an elevator with Tyson. ... Oh, not that Tyson.

Book 2 of the new version of The Great Rift. There's only one core rulebook; it's the one that says Core Rulebook on the title page. (Also the cover and the spine, but those are not what determines the title of a book under normal circumstances.)

Just in case anyone has the new version and is scratching their heads over why that isn't in their box, it's now the first section of Book 2. In the old version it was bound by itself.
