I'm not sure, but I think the windows progress bar thingy includes the time spent actually writing to disk, whereas on Linux (or i guess cinnamon) only shows when it gets to disk-cache. If you are full on RAM or tried shutting down immediately afterwards it should take a bit longer since it has to actually write it to disk

Thats my guess anyway

I need there to be a theory video about how this is actually not a joke, but confirmation that mojang will rewrite minecraft bedrock edition in rust and how it will save bedrock edition from all of its bugs

Cool, thanks for sharing. Maybe I'll take a look. I don't know a lot about i2p's protocol though.

There's another i2p router in rust I'm aware of but it hasnt been active in 2 years it seems. Maybe it's a useful reference to you https://github.com/str4d/ire :)

The other logic I've started trying to apply is using words that repeat letters.

That too. I did this a couple games ago when the word was CARRY. I had ⬛️🟥⬛️⬛️🟥 and was able to use MAMMY DADDY NANNY SASSY. I think these are the most optimal types of words because it lets you bypass the requirement of needing yellows to pad space, and as a consequence the yellows don't bully you into a corner as quickly. I guess thinking in terms of information, it does good at keeping the set of possible words as big as possible. (In normal Wordle, you want to pick a word which halves the set.)

Yellows (and reds) seem good because they slow down how fast you go through gray letters. I'm not so sure the best starting word is the most obscure word. Good ones seem to reveal a pattern of "rhymes," which is what I was going for with the ⬛️🟨🟨🟨🟨 pattern. Unfortunately I already used quite a few letters by that point :(

Disclaimer: I played this round alongside my dad so I did have an advantage in knowing where some letters were. More realistically I'd have gotten 9 or something :)

Seems like a pretty decent starting word, although it did give a yellow this timeXYLYL

After my first guess I was not expecting it to go this well

Thats a good observation. I would think I use Ctrl more frequently than Alt, so it would make sense to have Alt where Ctrl usually is, and Ctrl where Shift usually is.

Interesting, I'll have to check it out. I've been passively wanting to leave brave on iOS for some time now. Thank you!

Nope. I use left shift for everything.

Even if you do use both shift keys correctly, it still feels awkward to me since you have to sacrifice a pinky from home row and shift your hands.

It's why I've been curious to try a layout where Shift and Alt are swapped, that way you can use your thumb to press shift and keep your fingers in place.

I got inspired and made a similar effect is desmos

f(theta, t) = 0.1 max(cos(theta + t), 0)^2 sin(8 theta)

r = 1 + f(theta, t)
r = 1 - f(theta, t)
where: 0 <= theta <= 2 pi

t = 0
where: 0 <= t < 2 pi

It's not quite right though, the sin(8 theta) part needs to phase shift, but basing it off of t messes up the perfect loop.

At that point I would reach for code, which also lets you save the animation. Using something like p5.js (editor.p5js.org) you can easily draw graphics and save each frame as its own image
