Talk:3238: Soniferous Aether

Dunno how, but I managed to get to an XKCD comic within the first like 5 minutes of it's upload. Went ahead and added a really bare bones explanation. People funnier and smarter than me can take it from there. RG (talk) 04:24, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

managed to get to the xkcd comic before this page was even made somehow so yeah. --Utdtutyabthsc (talk) 04:49, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

ah, i have a script which polls for the new comic pages on comic days and sends a webhook to alert me as well as sending a request to another program of mine to index the new page, so i fairly often find that the wiki page has been made by the bot but is completely empty when i get to it--or on rare occasions the webhook triggers before the xkcd.com/<number> url can embed, apparently; i guess the comic metadata JSON gets filled in before the image is, or something like that? (the webhook triggers sending a message to discord with the link, which embeds 99% of the time) - Vaedez (talk) 05:03, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

"...however the Tu-144 and Concordé..." - why the rogue accent? Was the author's reasoning that, as a French word, it is de rigeur (see what I did there) for it to include accents? As errors go, it's acute one... 50.45.232.78 05:21, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

The rogue accent has been removed with the speed of sound. But what about that supersonic DC-8. --Coconut Galaxy (talk) 05:26, 28 April 2026 (UTC)
