Also I'm 90% sure the onyx is meant to be a total solar eclipse and I'm having a nerd moment 🤩

If you're still going, could I know more about these, please? Also if you know the exact size, i.e. are they any bigger than their category?

Snagged! Just wanted to check if I needed it adjusted or not. Thanks!

Is this one actually adjustable as the listing says? It didn’t look like the type of setting that would be unless it’s open on the back 👀

Aurora borealis? At this time of year, at this time of day, localized entirely within Rime?

So glad that the paper has been useful! That’s exactly what we wanted. Your series has been really good! Excited to see the next installments and hopefully a future version on your cohort’s mission!

I looked at the photo before I read the post and thought “I swear that’s MAUVE with Bernie Sanders”…delighted to see it *is* MAUVE! Had not seen before that @astrobites.bsky.social is covering our paper!! That’s my (and 17 other people’s) baby!

It’s bath bombs! Highly anticipating a future Cyan Version™️ with Lego mini figures, tiny puzzles to solve, etc. Myst-themed bath products also accepted.

It’s actually bath bombs and not anything Riven-related 😅 but now I’m thinking about how cool it would be if each day had clues of a big puzzle to solve

A homemade advent calendar featuring hastily photo-shopped art from the game Riven, including Gehn, Catherine, Atrus, Cho, a wahrk, and two sunners.

It’s the DIY Riven advent calendar of my dreams! @cyan.com New product idea? Featuring all your Riven faves and bonus yellow raincoat Atrus, who is best Atrus.

I had to look this up! It’s been awhile 😅. (3 - sqrt(13))^2 is equivalent to (sqrt(13) - 3)^2. sqrt(13)~=3.6, so (3 - sqrt(13)) is negative, but (sqrt(13) - 3) is positive.

It’s 2*sqrt(13). The trick is that (3 - sqrt(13)) is negative, so undoing the square makes the whole quantity negative and reverses the signs to be (-3 + sqrt(13)).

Good to know! For sure discount it if it showed up outside the window. I once had a line show up hours later and it freaked me out

I actually see a very faint positive line on your first test from today. I tried to blow up the contrast to make it more obvious. Would recommend PCR to confirm. Afaik, asymptomatic cases are very common and ~60% of infections occur from asymptomatic transmission
