[Reverie]

I totally just stuffed my face with cookies when I saw the tablet candy. I'm so bad D:
Edit: It was just four cookies, don't judge me >.>

[Biowraith]

I tried making tablet. I think I did it wrong, it was INCREDIBLY sweet.

That sounds like you did it right to me.

[Parsely]

100 million degrees centigrade. Where can I find it?

guys hlep D:

I'm just curious where you could find something this hot in nature.

[Arx]

The closest you can get, I'd imagine, would be a lightning bolt or the surface of a star. I don't know how hot those are, but they're the hottest that come to mind.

[Descan]

The other problem was that it was hard and very thin, and didn't want to settle without like 7 days in the fridge. The hardness might simply be because I let it settle too long, but the outsides were hard while the inner regions was as soft as fondant...

So the surface of a star is the hottest thing that comes to mind?
Not maybe the core of it?

[Reverie]

I'd imagine it would be far hotter in the singularity of a black hole.

[Descan]

Center of our sun is only a fourth of that temperature, 27 million degrees kelvin.

Just searching "100 million degrees" finds me this.

Edit: I'm... not sure if that's even a meaningful thing, Reverie. Temperature is the movement of matter, and in a black-hole... I don't think we even know if what it inside there could even be CALLED matter, let alone it moving at all, let alone enough to be upwards of 100 million degrees.

It sounded logical in my head :p

I have some vague memory of the surface being hotter than the core. But it's not true. Don't mind me, I'm just purveying misinformation. I do that less often when I actually look this stuff up first, which is probably a sign.

Surface is about 10,000 (on the order of magnitude, unitless because it counts for any temperature system you can think of). The core of hotter stars gets to be 10,000,000, I think, and I imagine that supernovas get to be... bigger than whatever I could say here. Shit's scary.

I'd imagine they'd be pretty bright, considering we can see them from other galaxies.

On a completely unrelated to temperature note, I am back online and holy sweet baby Jesus there's a new Dwarf Fortress edition oh my God that's like my birthday all over again and and when I killed a guy in adventurer mode his wife was all like "It was inevitable" and then my companion cried in the corner and why are there so many exploded peregrine falcons everywhere and oh god this is like a drug!

[Orange Wizard]

I think I remember seeing a Knit tie somewhere. Anyway, welcome back, even if this is the first time I've ever seen you.

[Lyeos]

I have returned!

Welcome back, Knit Tie.
Of course...
It was inevitable.
