Windows 10 goes out of support today. My fave useless fact about w10 is that the iconic blue desktop background is a *photograph* - not CGI.

To everyone in the comments/quotes saying it's not pronounced "wooster" - just read it like "woo-" as in "wood"

Panel 1: Shen is stoically holding up a sign with his right hand that says "W O R C E S T E R" on it.

Panel 2: A man clearly from Boston, in a black Red Sox cap and Bruins jersey and holding a Market Basket bag slung over his shoulder, says "WOOSTER!" Under the cap, he has messy brown hair, and is smiling innocently.

Panel 3: Shen, still stoic, now holds up a picture of a rooster with both hands.

Panel 4: The man from Boston smile lights up, sparkles in his eyes, and says "ROOCHESTER!!!"

those lines are actually *on* the checkpoint values! 32 for scorch, 40 for humpback and undertow, 42 for museum.

there's six 32-31 games, eight 40-39s, and just one 42-41.

(this relies on self-reported scores on sendou.ink, and I did manually exclude scores I deemed sufficiently unlikely. this also means losing scores in KOs are not recorded. there was a single 1-0 clams game I deemed plausible enough to keep.)

inspired by @whit3fi3sta.bsky.social making a scorigami board for the #S3NAL, I've put together a scorigami sheet for LUTI season 16 - one board with all scores, and one for each mode individually. #compsplatoon

Greetings #compsplatoon community! I've started a Scorigami to track every score that has happened for the Top 8 games throughout #S3NAL. Scores in black are impossible, and scores in green/blue all occurred in Week 1's Top 8 games.

(this does not account for edge cases where a connection desync causes a power clam to score no points - I have been shown documentation of this happening.)

Jordyn "Squidoku" Pi 🔜 New InkLAN @squidoku.bsky.social · 6d

this is what the clam blitz-specific scorigami board looks like btw. illegal scores are grayed out. it's so cursed.

a chart showing all legal final scores of a game of clam blitz. there's a bizarre pattern of unreachable scores.

the Unfair Flips speedrunning community has gone in a terrifying direction

Text from the final screen of the game Unfair Flips reading TOTAL FLIPS: 10

Final screen of the game Unfair Flips. Top left shows a speedrun timer at 10 minutes 55 seconds. Heads chance is 25%. Total flips is 10. Gar looks at the player. The coin is in ruins.

the strat, as i understand it, involves opening multiple copies of the game simultaneously, and using all of them to manipulate a single save so that eventually you end up with a save that only ever flipped heads

The game in which the premise is "the odds are real but gamers struggle to conceptualize or even believe them" has negative reviews from gamers who don't believe the odds are real (game: Unfair Flips)

A 'Not Recommended' Steam review with 4 hours played

Review text reads: It's a decent idea for a game where you flip a coin and depending on your percentage chances you get heads or tails. However the odds are a lie. You will flip tails 100 percent more than you will heads no matter what your percentage is. Even when you get it up to 60% you will still flip tails way more often then you will heads.

The Dev can try to defend it, but when I flip the coin 2500 times and only hit heads a third of the time even when at 60% then the odds are broken or a lie. I've also watched gameplay and seen fellow players have the same flips so I know it isn't just me having bad luck.

Still not bad for $2, but I'm saying no because the game is coded against you instead of it being fully on chance and luck.
