I love this comic!! Thanks for sharing, I wouldn't have discovered it otherwise.

Think I'll go toss them a Patreon sub.

Call your championship title the World Series.

Don't invite the rest of the world.

and delivery will be super cheap

lmao, you think they're going to start charging less for their service after you've been gleefully paying full price for it all this time?

You're in for a rude awakening.

Because they can. They don't even have to justify it. My car insurance goes up every year despite no accidents on my record. I look at competitors rates and they are even more expensive. Across the board they are just raising rates.

And we as consumers have no recourse, because we are required to have car insurance to drive, so it's not like we can just boycott them. Would not be surprised to learn that there is collusion going on between all the auto insurance companies to keep their rates roughly similar and raise them all at once.

For as long as I live I'll never understand how people could see that unveiling where the doofuses on stage hurl a big metal ball at the "bulletproof" glass and watch it crack during the live demo, and still think "Yeah I'll pre-order one of those".

Manchildren, fascist sympathizers, and deeply unserious or delusional people drive these cars. There is no "I bought it before I knew how crazy Elon was."

.webm files never embed properly for me in messaging apps. It's been years, and apparently this is an unsolvable issue for the likes of Microsoft Teams (although at my new job I use Slack now, so I haven't tried it in a while).

It is used to refer to a non-Jew.

In order to understand why space is "cold", you have to understand how we, as humans, perceive temperature. What we feel as hotness or coldness is just how excited the molecules in the atmosphere are. Molecules very excited? It's hot. Molecules very still? Cold.

Space is vast. Incomprehensible to our puny human minds that have evolved to exist on this tiny mote of dust. Most of space is devoid of matter. Sure there's hydrogen and helium out there just floating around, but not enough of it for us to be able to feel. So space feels like cold, and indeed, is quite cold. But as the above poster explained, losing heat in space is fundamentally different than how we lose it on earth.

Your body generates heat to keep your squishy organs running smoothly. The way we prevent ourselves from overheating is we rely on perspiration and evaporation, but that only works if we have Earth-like conditions where airflow can carry that excess heat way from our bodies.

In space, there is no airflow. Your skin would freeze while your blood boils.

The same issue is present with our technology. Radiating heat is very, very inefficient in space because we need something to carry it away from the source that is generating it faster than it can generate it. At least with the tech, we can turn it off to let it cool slowly over time, but it doesn't solve the fundamental problem of having no way to efficiently cool an entire AI datacenter that is meant to be used to fill a continuous demand here on Earth.

"That ought to do the trick!" 😆
