Regarding the alt text, that’s called a bureaucrat

If you think curiosity without rigor is bad, you should see rigor without curiosity

I hope I typed that right. I couldn’t copy the alt text from the source on mobile.
And I was annoyed that XKCD alt text wasn’t included with the post, so I thought I would include it to the best of my ability

I appreciate it!

XKCD alt text is always worth!
And it’s not always available (like, the well known ones being circulated around social media).

Props to the OP for linking to the image from XKCD (as opposed to rehosting it) and further props for linking the source!

Just missing the delicious alt text (at least for me using jerboa, Firefox and a pixel phone)

Yeah the alt text is always half the joke with XKCD.

psud@aussie.zone on 13 Jun 06:26 collapse

If you add “m.” before XKCD like: m.xkcd.com/3101/ you can tap the image to display the alt text and then copy it

Aww!

See, I thought that the most important thing was solutions of ethanol.

Midnitte@beehaw.org on 12 Jun 23:46 next collapse

I guess you’d need some proof.

Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org on 13 Jun 00:30 collapse

How does 90 sound?

Midnitte@beehaw.org on 13 Jun 00:38 collapse

Hm, that doesn’t sound absolute

Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org on 13 Jun 01:20 collapse

It's not, but it has some flavor to it. But 100 is a bit much.

Initiateofthevoid@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 13 Jun 03:00 collapse

We can compromise - 95. That seems like a good number if you really want to proof things right. You want at least 95.

Alaik@lemmy.zip on 13 Jun 16:22 collapse

I don’t know that leaves 5P less. I feel like we need a P closer to 0.

Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org on 14 Jun 02:50 collapse

How about if we just define that P=NP?

Agent641@lemmy.world on 13 Jun 08:52 collapse

I’ve never had solutions from ethanol, only problems

Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org on 13 Jun 12:32 collapse

It is the cause of, and solution to, all life's problems. :-)

As a scientist who has seen too much “that’s what the Algorithmen spit out, let’s publish it”, I can truly feel the comic

JATtho@lemmy.world on 13 Jun 16:07 collapse

Oh, this is a good one.
