Fun fact: Rubik originally invented his cube to teach his students (he was a teacher) about 3D shapes and faces. After trying it out, unintentionally mixing it, he spent roughly three weeks obsessively trying to solve it.
Richard Pike they said three weeks so one would assume that after those three weeks he solved it and that’s why it is being sold today edit: 0.1 likes.
I hate to be "that guy" but the part about teaching his students isn't the true story He actually used the cube to solve a structural problem, and see if he could move the individual parts without ruining the cube as a whole. The part about scrambling it unintentionally and taking a long while to solve it, however, is 100% true another fact is that it was originally just called the "magic cube", but the distributor wanted to make the trademark more unique, and thus named it after the inventor
When Lark said he wouldn't fake a heart attack and then immediately did that was only topped by Gray immediately going "Woah are you okay? A N D R E W!" I fucking cackled
"I saw uhm, bounce off of nothing?" "yeah that's a thing that happens" ACHTUALLY I'm fairly certain they re-created that bug from the ORIGINAL pong, which is pretty neat.
The fact that these two had a minute-long conversation about Al Pacino without mentioning Scarface or any of The Godfather movies is hilarious yet slightly horrifying
The fact that it’s all just Dunkaccino makes it even funnier considering a good half of the song’s lyrics are references to lines from Scarface and the Godfather movies lmao
The "Viennese pong" bit is one of my favorites from you two. It's just hilarious visualizing you guys boarding a plane and flying to Vienna mid stream.
@@aBlackMage If you're from Vienna, does that mean you're banned from all pongs except Viennese Pong? Does being naturally Viennese give you an edge in Viennese Pong? I have so many Viennese questions!
"and no, and axis of movement is not a dimension". In a 1D line you can move forward and back, in a 2d plane you can move forward, back, left, and right. In pong 1 the paddles only moved in a 1-D line instead of a 2-D plane. Its a dumb excuse to add 2D to the title but I imagine that's what they were going for.
that is axis of movment a dimension is what exists in both original and this pong there is a vertical and horizontal axis that the screen is displayed on. shut the fuck up
Mad props to Lark for the heart attack bit. It doesn't matter how many times I watch this video/this video's VOD, hearing Andrew's insane avian ramblings interrupted by the bang of a head hitting a table is comedy gold. I hope you didn't hurt yourself that bad.
Good to see someone with a community playing Dong Dong Never Die. I run the community discord for the game, lmk if there’s anything you wanted to learn!
The Pong segment was more entertaining than I expected it to be. Also, I love seeing people’s first reactions to Dong Dong Never Die, it’s such an experience to behold.
If you want to give Pongs a shot, check it out here! This web version will no longer be available after the end of 2020 so play while you can! The creator, Pippin Barr, also has other similar games like "Chesses" and "Breaksout". www.pippinbarr.com/games/pongs/Pongs.html (If you're reading this in the future, congrats for making it so far! If you still feel a burning desire to play Pongs, try out BlueMaxima's Flashpoint program; it's got thousands of classic (and non-classic) Flash games on it, and the Infinity version is a nice slim download that I'd very much recommend; I use it for Flash Game Friday every week.) bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/downloads/ Dong Dong Never Die can be downloaded here, but be warned, it's kind of jank and has a tendency to crash(and the majority of the game is in Chinese). dong-dong-never-die.en.uptodown.com/windows
Pong for 2 is a reference to Tennis for 2, which is one of the earliest video games ever made. It was designed to display on an oscilloscope and ran off of a computer meant for determining the trajectory of intercontinental ballistic missles, which leant itself well to predicting the trajectory of a ball being bounced about by paddles.
Or, could be defined as 2^n = how many equal parts it splits in to (n being the number of dimenions) Though, for non fractional dimensions your definition works fine
i remember watching the vod and hardly being able to wait for the edited version i genuinely laughed multiple times during both the vod and this video. :)
Thank you Grayfruit. I’ve been watching your channel for a while, and your videos helped me through a really dark time. Again, thank you for the laughs and smiles.
particularly hilarious is that the nerd's stats are also imbalanced, but very far from being a favorable imbalance ...which explains why the matchup at 1:18:18 was an absolute sweep
I think the reason the breakout game ended at 12 was because in a lot of games where there is a serve you need to be winning by a certain amount of points to win
This no joke is one of my favorite videos online. I have no idea why I love it so fucking much, but it AT LEAST is in my top 5 This is better than 2001: A Space Odyssey
The first game was tennis for two. The first commercial game was Tennis for the Magnavox Odyssey. Then Space Wars released in arcades. Then Pong, a bootleg of Tennis, became popular. Atari was, rightfully, sued for Pong, but they had an idea of how to market something, unlike Magnavox, and managed to make it somewhat popular
I just looked at the webpage and other browser games of this author and holy crap does he have a fixation on the same five Greek myth punishments. Also he's a master at driving you mad in a very intentionally feeling way in solo games and it's honestly genius
Dong dong never dies, isn’t a street fighter clone. Its a clone of the less popular king of fighters, and uses kof inputs, which is why the moves don’t come out when you think they should.
Did anyone catch the Pig with the face of a boy reference when they were playing tetris pong, "That are made by the men in Kazakhstan", this is from the song "The Complete History of the Soviet Union, Through the Eyes of a Humble Worker" which is a bop and arranged to the melody of tetris
grayfruit you seem like a cool dude and you make great content, i figured out about your channel when i saw the first Bikmin video, ive watched you streams and this video is one of my new favorites keep doing what you're doing and never change
Watching you play breakdown pong and calling it breakout pong was honestly a bit annoying, what made it worse was that you then proceeded to SKIP the actual breakout pong.
