Awesome. I'll give it a try.
One of my favorite series is Battlestar Galactica. Both the original and the remake.

I still haven't seen all of BSG. I saw parts here and there a long time ago when my roommate binge watched the entire series. Added it to my watch list so I won't forget again

Damn good TV!
Probably because it's based on good books, and one of the authors is closely involved with the TV show.
If you haven't read the books, I heartedly recommend them!

I wasn't aware it was based on a book series! I'll have to check those out since shows always seem to cut out fun side stories.

Should you never use a Pi Chart to demonstrate obesity?

Nope, just as never using a bar graph to demonstrate alcoholism.

It’s a ‘pie’ chart. Calling it a ‘pi’ chart is irrational.
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

You're right, it's circular, it should be called a 2pi chart.

This actually looks quite cool.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I'm glad the courses are free - that's a ridiculous price for the hardware!

That game had a profound effect on me as something like a then ten year old, I remember my hands shaking trying to get the coin in through the sheer excitement of it all. Sound was legendary and it also had probably the first example I ever saw of particle effects with the explosions. I've tried in the past to buy an old one on ebay and I've even got this idea about writing a C# clone in Blazor at the moment (that won't happen). I did one in ARM32 years ago.
When I take my kids to the same seaside arcade where I had these young moments, it's just full of dull machines that spit tickets out which you can exchange for plastic tat. It was dark, loud and just awesome in the 80s. The music was better too.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

I was about 16 or so I guess when I first dropped a coin in.
