Talk:2764: Cosmological Nostalgia Content

When I added the transcript it broke the "Created by a BOT" tag on explanation, even though I didn't touch explanation 172.71.151.98 05:30, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

No, it was broken before your edit. Someone else changed "BOT" to "Z=90s KID". The equal sign causes problems for mediawiki, but it's been fixed now. --Orion205 (talk) 06:03, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

For anyone who would benefit from a deeper explanation:

In the syntax for templates, equals signs come after parameter names (see Help:Templates § Parameters). So, Created by a Z was parsed as the name of a nonexistent template parameter, and 90s KID - Please change this comment when editing this page. Do NOT delete this tag too soon. was passed in as that parameter's value.

That still wouldn't necessarily be a problem. It just also left the first parameter empty. This specific template is programmed to show an error message when that happens. ~AgentMuffin 06:13, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Two times the red tint around Megan has been mentioned, in explanation and transcript... I cannot see that, no matter how much I zoon in. Is it actually there (can it be measured on the image file?) or is it just someone who wished it was like that? If it can be measrued it should be explained and if not then the mention should be deleted --Kynde (talk) 07:13, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

What I meant was that Megan's line art in this comic appeared more brownish/reddish to me than the line art of the other characters. Specifically, the colour hex #472425 using an online colour hex checker. --Multiuniverse (talk) 07:22, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

It's definitely there, but I didn't notice it until I saw it mentioned. It's subtle enough that I imagine certain displays or differences in individual color perception could make it harder to see, but trust me, it's certainly there. 162.158.222.5 07:24, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Why is everyone so unsure? it's definitely there. Mushrooms (talk) 09:00, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Not all monitors have the same quality, I can imagine that on some cheapish laptop screens it can be a lot harder to see -- 172.71.131.134 12:20, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

For me: red green color blindness Josot (talk) 12:27, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

For anybody wondering: the current (accurately measured) Highest redshifts is z = 11.1 Josot (talk) 12:31, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Before anyone embarrasses themself by asking, "multimanteau" is obviously a portmanteau of "multiple" and "portmanteau". Sheesh, get with the neurolinguistic program. "Phrasemanteau" would also be an acceptable neologism. - Frankie (talk) 11:48, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Inconstant "Constant"

I find it weird that so much professional study still refers to an assumed "cosmological constant", when it is observably not constant. Feels like we should be calling it "the cosmological value", since expansion has not been occurring uniformly & considerable localized variation in "vacuum energy" seems relatively certain. Parts of the observable universe are considerably older than the "big bang" that so much theory is hung upon; what part of "these laws are localized effects, not unchanging constants" has not been obvious, for >30 years?
