oh yeah,

forgot about the hints, thank you ledge! so, not an m-word at all. the first part is crossword-familiar, but as the name for an individual species, not the family as a whole

The unredacted word in the first sentence pretty much gives the article away.

computer > video (was thinking games) > picture > movie > moving. wasn't thinking I had the answer when I typed it in.

ledge, Friday, 16 June 2023 07:48 (two years ago)

does this word really need a wiki page? seems more like a job for wiktionary. also - Two-dimensional images may be created through optical devices – such as cameras, mirrors, lenses, telescopes, microscopes, and natural objects and phenomena, such as the human eye or water. - er, what?

ledge, Friday, 16 June 2023 08:21 (two years ago)

water can function as a mirror, so reflections

Clay, Friday, 16 June 2023 08:33 (two years ago)

oops welp forgot how hide works sorry

Clay, Friday, 16 June 2023 08:34 (two years ago)

yeah i guess that's what they're going for but to stick mirrors and cameras and telescopes *and* the human eye in there seems like a ball of confusion. don't all images require the human eye ultimately? does a telescope really make an image? if a reflection of a mountain in a lake is an image, what about the original mountain? just a terrible paragraph. lol nearly submitted with i instead of h tags myself.

Finally made good on my promise to remember that first 7-letter word. From there it was just figuring out if it was in Europe or Asia.

yeah almost forgot about the ol' 'history of' trick. scrolling through I saw a capitalised An which looked like an asian currency or something.

Should've realized sooner this was going to be in either "North" or "South" Asia, and of course only the latter is a thing.

lol it took me sooo long to get that few-lettered country, I thought I had already covered everything, but had forgotten about the *a*i**ea*. not that I was in any particular hurry, it’s warm here and I’ve had a long day at work

still haven’t figured out that behemoth of American stand-up comedy of Irish stock tho. it’s obviously something blindingly obvious, but I’ve got nothing (well, I had Lenny Bruce right away (before the Irishness became apparent) - it’s not like I haven’t got any credentials in this field)

The first four-letter country I thought of was Peru, but that put me in the right hemisphere at least, and when I tried "revolution" the answer came pretty quickly.

rocky start, nothing stuck (including “religious”), until I tried “concept”, then I was there within 15. luckily, the first case-relevant concept I tried turned out to be the right one

Same as BC, "religious" turned up nothing nor did "theory," and the "formula" in the third paragraph put me on a very fruitless goose chase.

am I losing it? yesterday I couldn't think of one of the most basic concepts in Buddhism, today it took me 30 guesses to realise there are professions other than writer, composer, scientist, philosopher, who produce titled works. then, though I knew it was probably wrong, it took me literally ten minutes to think of the name of degas. oh and i had to look up the real guy's first name.
