AffinityJules Posted June 18 Posted June 18 This one took its own flight path, I just pressed buttons and adjusted sliders when I was told to. And again, although not strictly copied from the Dune universe, the inspiration came from it.

I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe. These are not my own words but I sure like this quote.

Although it’s hardly necessary here, in principle I don’t see why not. I believe that a new member’s posts are only editable for a very limited time, but the rest of us have a pretty big editing window. Fun fact: Most people get it wrong the other way around, writing “just desserts” instead of “just deserts” (with the emphasis, when spoken, also on the second syllable rather than the first, a “desert” in this sense being “that which is deserved”.)
