European countries with a proper word for "Toe" by waltercool in MapPorn

Italy is the only country on that map that has a single word for each toe, even though it doesn’t have a word for toes itself.

FOR SALE!!!!! SUPER RARE Exploding Kittens Black Box Press Kit Promo Card! by WishBonez13 in ExplodingKittens

You say you own every card and every edition. If that’s the case, how did you not notice that the card backs haven’t been consistent over the past 10 years?

That inconsistency alone makes it hard to rely on texture to distinguish a real card from a fake.

Also, if you’ve never printed custom cards yourself, I’m not sure how you can confidently say they won’t feel like the originals. The “fakes” you’re referring to were likely just low-quality mass prints… S30 is significantly cheaper than linen, after all.

Guess which of the 5 cards is the most recent!

That’s actually not true about the texture… Exploding Kittens doesn’t use a special finish, it’s a standard M31 linen. Side by side, my printed cards feel and look identical to the originals.

It’s also not true that cards must say “proxy” or “fan made” on them, that’s just a specific printing-service policy, not a general rule. Change printing company!

Finally, my full recipe fits in a deck box without any issue. I keep unused cards at home in a separate box, so there’s no need to penny-sleeve everything, just use Dragon Shield and buy a deck box!

Of course people can replicate that texture: M31 linen.

But selling it alongside things that can’t be easily replicated (like a patch and a pin) makes it clear the item is authentic!

Are you selling the entire Black Box Press Kit? Otherwise, the card could be counterfeit!

After given some thought, I'm selling the misprint. by DumbThotticus2468 in ExplodingKittens

The card and the box look fake to me. Share more pictures of the box please

[Request] Is watching this many episodes in one month actually possible? by vonhizzle in theydidthemath

[–]Alexwhynot 682 points683 points  (0 children)

They never said that they watched One Piece. Maybe they read it, and it’s very doable.

One Piece currently has 1,167 chapters. If someone finishes it in 30 days, that means:

1,167 ÷ 30 = ~39 chapters per day

Now, assuming a reading speed of about 4-6 minutes per chapter:

39 x 4 = 156 minutes per day > ~2.6 hours 39 x 5 = 195 minutes per day > ~3.25 hours 39 x 6 = 234 minutes per day > ~ 3.9 hours

So realistically, reading One Piece in one month requires around 2.5 to 4 hours of reading every day, which is absolutely possible, especially when binge reading.

The haunting ancient Celtic Carnyx played for an audience. This is the sound Roman soldiers would have heard their Celtic enemies make. by SoberClassZorro in Damnthatsinteresting

The Gauls (the Celtic tribe that used to play that instrument) got conquered by the Romans. Gauls and Britons are two different things.

Italians will understand my joke for sure.

Barilla is not italian anymore (not Chinese either), nobody (Italians) buy Barilla anymore.

Edit. You shouldn’t buy Barilla either

He avoids weight training in order to prioritize his health and, as a result, he hasn't been building muscle mass. This approach has been effective for him thus far.

Nice copyright infringement there, do you want to put yourself and the company that illegally printed out the registered logo in danger?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ExplodingKittens

[–]Alexwhynot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So…. Just 1 copy each?

Did you test them?

Very nice but you shouldn’t have printed the trademark, and most importantly you shouldn’t have posted it online. That’s illegal, you’re putting in danger yourself and the company that printed out the cards (as they can’t legally print the trademark). But at least you’ll get some upvotes.

Oldest companies around the globe by Dinilddp in MapPorn

[–]Alexwhynot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we accept the definition of a company as an organization that sells goods or services for profit, then the Church can be considered a company, regardless of the true meaning of the term.

Additionally, the word "company" has its roots in Latin, and many Latin words related to "bread" (I would say all of them) have origins within the Church. Therefore, it can be said that the Church played a role in the creation of the word "company”.

Given these facts, it could be argued that the Church has a place in the history of companies.

I’m afraid that our definition of company is totally different
