You are correct about the meaning being not to have other gods, I didn’t say it was a mistranslation. I said they are purposefully taking the alternate and more popular meaning of the word “before”. In the scripture it means ‘in front of’ or ‘in my sight’. They take the meaning as ‘in line in front of’. Because of the eccentricities of English and many other languages, the meaning could be taken either way if you didn’t have context. Also, the joke hinges on ignoring that mentioning other gods doesn’t mean they exist or exist in the way they are purported to exist. In that German translation from the post I was replying to, the translation was more specific and didn’t lend as much confusion.

The joke hinges on misusing an alternate meaning to an English word that is a translation already from ancient Hebrew (likely via Latin). I am pretty sure the artist is well aware of this. Of course, some people will read this comic and think they discovered some profound contradiction…

I don’t have a single problem with the word “application”

As is your right and duty.

Yeah, I thought I made that clear. I just don’t like it.

Oh, it is. It is… Sigh.

I fought hard against that for years. I still only use ‘app’ for phone programs, but I stopped correcting people every time they used the term for anything else. It isn’t technically wrong, but it grates on my nerves for some reason.

This guy is a hero. Inkscape is so much better than Adobe. Also, I couldn’t have done some recent PDF to AutoCad conversions without that software. Autocad chokes on pulling vectors out of PDFs for some reason. It does it, but it is a mess. The bad thing is I know it could do better because if you just pull in the same PDF that it struggled with as an external source, it renders it fine, including all the vector information. I could be doing something wrong, but it shouldn’t be that hard.

That cat would have 3 arms if it relied on me remembering to look before I slam the door even with the note… I would have to affix some cloth on that gap or something.

Well, I just mean that she is probably using the British meaning of Fanny for the joke… I’ve never heard of this comic before so I figured it was a one-off.

Based on the joke, I think she might be British…

That’s a trash article, and Antarctica is the last place anyone should worry about cruises going unless they are chopping up penguins for bird-brunch or something.

I tried to play that game and totally failed to grasp the controls. The idea of is is appealing. I might have to give it another go.
