@thedisasterautist Definitely seems like it takes a bit of getting use to...
Took a couple of practice sessions before playing 'for real' ... Glad I did.
Eventually, got into the right frame of mind, though sweated it out on that last guess.
I had been a long-time player of Wordle, until The NYT bought it, broke the stats, and (IMO) fumbled the ball.
Saw Merriam-Webster purchased Quordle, and gave it a try (after 2 practice sessions).

Alfred Hitchcock Presents - Season 7, Episode 39 (The Sorcerer's Apprentice).
The episode wasn't shown during the programs first / original run (though later was shown in syndication, on DVD, etc.), because the network felt it was too gruesome.
From "Alfred Hitchcock Presents..." - Season 3, Episode 26 (Bull in a China Shop).
One of my favorite actors: Estelle Winwood (far-right). I do have vague memories of seeing her (though not knowing who she was at the time) on the 1960's "Batman" series.
Other excellent roles were in "Murder By Death" and "The Producers."
If I need a quick cheering up, just hearing that voice, or seeing her wide-eyed looks is enough to bring me out of the deepest doldrums.
@Myriacanth I still haven't looked for that... yet. Might give it a while later today... !

Maybe in the end John Wick will get a cat instead.
LOL - always love seeing Peter Lorre pop up in TV episodes now and then.
Here, in "Alfred Hitchcock Presents..." - Season 3, Episode 10 (The Diplomatic Corpse)

The Altair 8800 arguably launched Microsoft. Now [Dave Glover] from Microsoft offers an emulated and potentially cloud-based Altair emulation with CP/M and Microsoft Basic. You can see a video of the project below. One thing that makes it a bit odd compared to other Altair clones we’ve seen is that the emulator runs in a Docker environment and is fully cloud-enabled. You can interact with it via a PCB front panel, or a terminal running in a web browser. https://hackaday.com/2023/01/15/microsoft-returns-to-the-altair/

@Knitpurrl It's a decent film - though not one that I'd re-watch too often.
From "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" - Season 1, Episode 21 (Safe Conduct) - first shown February 19, 1956.
With both Werner Klemperer (far right) and John Banner (center-left) - several years before they'd star on "Hogan's Heroes."
@Knitpurrl @Agatha
Correct... (early , during Leonides' survival test...)
