Achievement get!

I quite enjoy this 10-minute tool-assisted speedrun of that acheivement.

were that many people using 3D-plastic printing, back in 2019

3D printing was already pretty common in 2019. I had a small hobby printer by then.

But I’m not entirely convinced that the above tray is 3D printed. I can’t see any obvious artifacts such as layer lines or the tool path of the top layer. It is quite a large object, and would likely need to be printed in multiple parts, or on a specialized printer. Additionally, untreated 3D prints are generally not recommended for items which will repeatedly contact food, as the rough surface is difficult to fully clean.

This presentation is exceptionally visually pleasing. It’s like an Indian bento.

Invest in beans!

These noodles resemble spaghetti more than I would expect.

His expression, the stretchiness of the overwrap on the box, the frantic speed of Calvin’s arms, all brilliantly executed in a single panel.

The threadiverse needs an equivalent of r/MemeEconomy.

Thanks for sharing. That was great!

Of those 72…

Why can we assume that the people that Bilbo “likes half as well as they deserve” are drawn exclusively from the set of people he does not know “half as well as he should like”?

To put it another way, are we sure that there are no red hobbits in the top half (blue section) of the chart?

Who is Al? Weird Al? :)

I thought “fin” was the stressed syllable.

I love how skilled Watterson is at drawing facial expressions. He really captures Calvin’s eagerness and Hobbes’ annoyance.

Your extended editions must be different from mine.

Thanks for the spoiler tag. It would be even more helpful if you stated which movie you were about to spoil.

By uploading this file to my webspace, am I “distributing” it in the legal sense? Dang.

Technically yes. A slightly riskier and whackier idea would be to try and upload it to a more popular site, and wait to see if it gets flagged by ContentID or if you get a DMCA takedown notice from someone.

Not recommending this course of action, just saying that it is a possible one.

helicopter or high-end drone

Given that the LOTR films were made in the early 2000s, I believe only one of these options would have been available.

one could not say ‘a green great dragon’, but had to say ‘a great green dragon’. I wondered why, and still do

Tom Scott to the rescue: Adjectival Order: Why A “Big Red Balloon”, not a “Red Big Balloon”?

TL;DW: There is an order, we mostly agree on what that order is, but we still have no idea why. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is one of my mom’s favourites. Mine too, I suppose.

Happy Hobbes is the best Hobbes.

Just look how pleased he is with himself.

We do have one member of that mod team here with us on the threadiverse.

It’s a bit of a long shot, as they aren’t super active, but it would be interesting to hear their side of the story.
