Yeah I remmeber this on TV months ago and it was really weird. Now imagine if every walrus looked like Walrii

Also Street posted this on IRC and I thought this was funny XD https://twitter.com/grumpyuxman/status/575596036628029440

This could almost become a CAPTCHA for retro gaming websites

Maybe they can ask what "the save icon" is too, as a failsafe

Nah that would be for next decade when everything will be moved to Cloud hosting.

Unless you are refering to floppy disks, but some computers at school still use them.

Remember our ol' Friendship Unity Caring Kindness in the #omnimaga topic?

u/Dream of Omnimaga March 24, 2015, 09:00:16 AM

Oh wow I remember that. Netham45 set it up in May 2008 (on the 23rd IIRC) and then Eeems removed it somewhere in late 2012 or 2013 (it was later added back but in #omnimaga-spam).

I wonder if the above picture is real, though?

Also talking about Netham45, this happened in early 2010 or so (this has to be very early in the year because Simplethinker/mio/noah were still around):

Make sure to not repeat this anymore on any main TI community IRC channel, though.

You thought the flag of Nepal was weird? Here's the formula to calculate its aspect ratio, according to Wikipedia:

[tex]\frac{24+\frac{297-180\sqrt{2}}{92-36\sqrt{2}}\cdot\left(1+\frac{8-3\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{118-48\sqrt{2}}-6}\right)}{32+\frac{297-180\sqrt{2}}{92-36\sqrt{2}}\cdot\left(1+\frac{6}{\left(8-3\sqrt{2}\right)\cdot\left(\sqrt{1+\frac{18}{41-24\sqrt{2}}}-1\right)}\right)}\approx 0.82033758776860084636 \ldots[/tex]

(Yay a legit reason to test the TeX mod
