Seems confusing, why don't we just call it base-10?
I love this joke so much.
This made my day...I felt way too proud of the joke for being clever, and usually when that happens some people don't get it and think I'm an idiot, and the people who get it think it's just a dumb joke
I very nearly didn't post the comment because of that, but said "fuck it, I think it's funny, and if no one else does no one will notice"
Compliments mean nothing to me when I don't feel proud of the thing being complimented, but I felt proud of this...
It's a stupid little thing, but it comes at a time when I'm trying to build up the confidence to release the game demo I made months ago. You moved the needle a little bit... I'm going to text a friend right now and have someone else play the demo.
So thanks for telling me you loved the joke, it was the straw that pushed me into putting more of my work out there
I’m so glad! I totally get it, I love when someone notices something I’m proud of, especially when it’s unexpected. I’m thrilled I could help!
Also, I have previously told this joke you may appreciate:
“There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary, those who don’t, and those who knew this joke was in ternary all along.”
I laughed out loud, the twist at the end got me
