I am familiar with the phrase. And I was correct assuming you were referring to chromium as the culprit.

In case anyone didn’t know, you actually can polish a turd.

How would you say it’s a turd? I assume because it’s still chromium based, but I don’t want to put words in your mouth.

It’s my browser of choice for my work computer but I do run Firefox at home and on mobile.

As someone with more RGB things in my house than one should admit to, I can see where the confusion comes in.

They should have specified pigments or light.

However, when you look at it from the perspective of the first things we teach kids about colors, green is a mixture of the primary colors yellow and blue.

For a puzzle with so many cross over red herrings, this just kinda fell into place.

7.0.57. I’ve had no android issues with this version. I don’t feel like I’m missing any features by refusing to update.

Meh. Nova is the best launcher in my opinion but I’ve already been version locked to the last release before this company bought it. I’ve basically given up in anyone else replicating the features I want. So I’ll be using this version of Nova until Google finally breaks it.

One of those games where I had yo take a mid day break and come back to it. I think it helped not having the LAST LETTER locked in.

You don’t want to know what happens to the dog if you don’t get it in 6 guesses.

A tricky one today - default purple win. TWEET snuck into my green section. I would probably never have gotten purple on my own.

HOT DOG. Even as an American that was obscure. It feels like a real “old timey” kind of saying - and I’m no spring chicken.

My first time today also. I wasn’t impressed with the clue words. But I’ll give it another shot tomorrow.

Your stats look like a dog laying down. Or perhaps the sphinx with the fallen nose highlighted.

Gotta appreciate the spanogram shape today but it was a very easy solve.

Strands #106 “Picking up the pieces” 🔵🔵🔵🔵 🔵🔵🟡

Very straightforward puzzle today. Oddly enough little ol “clue” was what got me going today.

I had a much easier time today. It would have been even better if I didn’t misspell the long word.

Not words I would have picked for the category. Obviously.

Even with nostalgia glasses on I had a hard time enjoying the really old ones. That said, I think there’s a lot of charm in sq4 and kq5 5/6.

Another old fart here. Some of my first gaming memories are Kings Quest 1 and Space Quest 1. I remember having to go all my parents how to spell certain words to do what I needed to do.

I played both of those originals but then missed out on the sequels until they went vga - sq4 and kq5. Of course as an adult I bought all the collections so I could finally see what I missed in 2-4.

All that to say, thanks for posting this. I’ll always watch another documentary on Sierra.
