*And then the human eye isn't large as an inch, and the "most central fovea" is much smaller. Maybe Randall will correct the "hundreds of pixels per inch"... | *And then the human eye isn't large as an inch, and the "most central fovea" is much smaller.

Nevertheless the word ''retina'' is focusing on people who know the ''Apple Retina Display'' but don't know where it comes from. --[[User:Dgbrt|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt|talk]]) 22:06, 30 May 2018 (UTC) | Nevertheless the word ''retina'' is focusing on people who know the ''Apple Retina Display'' but don't know where it comes from. --[[User:Dgbrt|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt|talk]]) 22:06, 30 May 2018 (UTC) | ||

Why '''Maggie Haberman'''? Is it just because of her prolific Twitter usage? I'm not aware how that relates to captioning photos, am I missing a reference? {{unsigned|JohnHawkinson}} | Why '''Maggie Haberman'''? Is it just because of her prolific Twitter usage?

If comic #404 wasn't counted due to Comic Not Found, it means that this comic is not really #2000, but rather #1999. Probably on Wednesday it will be truly comic #2000. {{unsigned|Xkcdreader52}} | If comic #404 wasn't counted due to Comic Not Found, it means that this comic is not really #2000, but rather #1999.

There are two Unicode characters for the letters C and R in circles. The enclosed C and enclosed R characters are neither superscript or subscript. and registered trademark (® ®) and copyright (© ©) are smaller and often superscript. The copyright symbol should be used in place of enclosed C and the registered trademark symbol should be used instead of enclosed R. All registered trademarks are trademarks. Not all trademarks are registered copyrights. Therefore, the two symbols should not be used together. You should have only one of the symbols (® ™ ©) and it should appear immediately after the item it refers to. Items can have copyrights, trademarks, and service marks, but not a combination. Dictionary words, such as "number" can't be copyrighted. It might be possible to apply for a trademark or service mark, but you would have a hard time defending it in court.

− | When i read the camera obscura bit i was thinking of the camera from Fatal Frame which allows its user to see/fight off ghosts. That makes more sense to me than the explanation here which is more of a projector than camera. | + | When i read the camera obscura bit i was thinking of the camera from Fatal Frame which allows its user to see/fight off ghosts.
