In response to the comment added by @GSLikesCats307, "When the comic was first published the number was −0.00000000000000017 days": Perhaps Randall was just trying to make things a bit more realistic. I've shown a realistic example that could generate −0.00000000000000044. My experiments didn't find any examples that could generate −0.00000000000000017. —Scs (talk) 15:15, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

The day counter is now showing −0.00000000000000044 on my Windows 11 system using Chrome. Maybe the result differs based on computer/browser combination? 72.218.191.213 16:16, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

This comic was published during NASA's Artemis II moon mission. Could Cueball seeming to be floating above his chair be a reference to null gravity? PDesbeginner (talk) 17:12, 3 April 2026 (UTC)
