This is really cool! I'd love to see more comics like this

Idono, I think this one is quite unique and interesting, if it's just a choice they made I really like it

Yws, and that would be the goal of the little boy that's playing the game

I'm not sure that I'll get the English terms wrong but basically heat can move in three ways:

  • By convection, aka liquids and gases moving around when theire heated. Obviously this doesn't happen in space
  • By conduction, a hot thing thouches a cold one and heat transfers from hot to cold. And, this neither works in space
  • By radiaton. Hot objects radiate heat as electro magnetic waves (ie ligth). This is the only one that works in a vacuum and this process is rather slow. Also this results I the weird phenomenon that good looking people cool down faster in space since their hoter. Therefore we should only recruit bad looking astronauts, but no one seems to have figured that out

Could someone explain? Can one do this? What evil spells have to be cast for this to work?

You should sort them in alphabetical order, my European brain won't be able to remember them otherwise

Yes, it's probably referring to the climate crisis. I think it qualifies as a emergency allowing me to not use the button

We have basic words for the numbers zero to three, so why not use them to count?

  • None (0)
  • Single (1)
  • pair (2)
  • Multiple (3+ but we'll use it as three)

So with those "digits" we can construct some numbers:

  1. Single
  2. pair
  3. Multiple
  4. Single nothing
  5. Single single
  6. Single pair
  7. Single multiple
  8. Pair of nothing
  9. Pair of singels
  10. Pair of pairs

And of course we can construct bigger numbers like:
42 = 4²×2+4¹×2+4⁰×2 = pair of pairs of pairs
128 = 4³×2 = pair of absolute complete nothinges For this last one I just use some adjectives to repeat the "nothing" as it looks really weird with multiple nothing in a row.

The distance between Stockholm and Gothenburg is a single multiple of none multiple multiples

Could I have a single multiple of bananas please?

 
 

And do believe that I, this random guy on the internet has a soul

I personally don't believe that I anyone else has a soul. From my standup I don't se any reason to believe that our consciousness and our so called "soul" would be any more then something our brain is making up.

 

Like just commenting a friendly joke, a compliment or something like that

 

I've seen .: used two times now, and I really wonder what is? The first time I saw it was in an extract from the Swedish dictionary SAOL in NE. They used it something like this so:

History.: since year x

More lately I saw it used in this comment by @nodsocket@lemmy.world like so:

What make bikes so expensive?

R.: The willing of people to buy them.


What is this? Were does it come from? Should I use it?


Edit: thanks for all the answers :). It turns out it was actually used for abbreviation in the dictionary, they wrote "hist." instead of "historia".
