        Wikipedia is about to become a really weird place…

          Yes. Because so many people seem to have changed their belief systems.

          Naturalism is essentially based on the strict adherence to Newton’s laws, which were shown to be slightly wrong in some cases.

                No I just don’t get what any of that has to do with a joke about Wikipedia becoming weird because it’s being run by a crazy anime girl from Konosuba, that’s all…

                  Jokes are often about word associations and patterns.

        No, thats the job hunting website. Wikipedia is the one anyone can edit historical facts.

    If you are on desktop and you aren’t sure how it works, try out this Wiki page and in the top right corner you can see an “eyeglasses” looking icon. Click that and set it to Automatic or Dark.

    Very happy to see it come to wikipedia!!

    But I think it also needs some polish. The contrast is too high and the blue on black of the hyperlinks is too garish for sure.

    2 down, 14 more to go. Nice.

    Right? We are going to do all of the basic 16 terminal colors, right?

      Powers of 2 are very powerful. They can certainly build elaborate and understandable stories.

      Powers of 3 are far more cohesive, though.
