F1RST! I actually found the comic before Theusafbot did. K9Dragon23, or RainWingSquares (talk) (talk) 01:01, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

I also did a crappy first draft explanation. K9Dragon23, or RainWingSquares (talk) (talk) 01:03, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Published on the 25th Anniversary of the song release right?

wasn't there an olympic runner who requested a song to be played with his preferred beats per minute, only to be rejected out of a concern for an unfair advantage? 84.225.125.43 07:10, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Wow! I needed this explanation. I knew nothing of speedruns, nor Tool. Usain Bolt I had heard of.--2A00:23CC:D248:8901:79C8:645F:821A:1BA3 08:37, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Cueball is such a tool. 2A02:2455:1960:4000:2C98:4FB4:B92F:33B4 10:07, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Shouldn't they remove Usain Bolt'd record as a TAS?--94.73.49.13

No, he was the one that did the record, not a programmed computer. A robot that was programmed to perform a series of specific inputs that make it run really fast would be a TAS. --DollarStoreBa'alconverse 15:26, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
Funny, I use Pneuma as my coding focus music.... 2A0A:EF40:2D3:201:A4CA:7332:48F3:6525 12:27, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
