TIL that a single d100 die was possible (I would have assumed it was simulated with two d10 dice or something, but googling showed that there is such a die)

If I had a nickel for every orange class ranked war weapon with two bonuses that I managed to buy for the typical price of a non-rw weapon in Torn, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

My newest acquisition.

There wasn't time for another primary and, given her name recognition and that she dominated in the polling of who Democrats wanted to replace Biden, she would have won the primary anyway. Also, having been on the ticket, she was the only candidate that would have been eligible for Biden's warchest.

In the 80s, the Commodore 64 put computing into homes all over the world. Kids experimented, learned to code, built games. Millions of people gained access to tools they never would have had otherwise โ€” all because a Holocaust survivor refused to let the trauma stop him from making a difference.

It's a good episode. Thankfully, though, unlike with the black and white episode of The Planet of the Daleks, it could be removed without hurting the overall story too much.

This was one of the last episodes I saw, as the story had only ever been broadcast here without the first episode, presumably because PBS didn't want to broadcast a black and white episode when the rest of the story was in color.๐Ÿ“บ

An absolute favourite bit of lunancy. Some people dancing to incidental music from The Moonbase in 1966.
