  • What about at Point Nemo

    The oceanic pole of inaccessibility, also known as Point Nemo, is located at roughly 48°52.6′S 123°23.6′W and is the place in the ocean that is farthest from land. It represents the solution to the “longest swim” problem. The problem entails finding such a place in the world ocean where, if a person fell overboard while on a ship at sea, they would be as far away from any land in any direction as possible. It lies in the South Pacific Ocean, and is equally distant from the three closest land vertices which are each roughly 2,688 km (1,670 mi) away.












  • In 2023, Dilbert was dropped by numerous independent newspapers as well as its distributor, Andrews McMeel Syndication (which owns GoComics, from where the comic was also removed), after Adams published a video where he called Black Americans who disagreed with the slogan “It’s okay to be white” a “hate group” and said White Americans should “get the hell away from” them.[4][5] The video was widely described by sources such as The Economist and Reuters as containing “racist comments” and being a “racist rant”.[4][5] Adams stated that he disavows racism.[6] The following month, Adams relaunched the strip as a webcomic on Locals under the name Daily Dilbert Reborn.

  • I did some reading after this, as I had never heard typal.

    Mark says a deck relying on creatures of the same type, elves, goblins, warriors, etc would be a typal deck.

    Where Kindred is a direct word replacement for the word tribal. So it is only used officially when printed on a card.

    Personally, I too think Kindred is the better word and should be used in both cases.
