There are five. White, grey, blue, smiley, pink. The pink one is out of shot in the third panel.
You’ll have to forgive Picard. He’s been through some shit. Kinda just sees what he wants these days.
He needs to learn how to count!
That’s what I love about the episode so much. It shows that even our heroes can go crazy and be wrong and stubborn and never admit it.
The chain of command in that office is out of bounds.
I’ve watched this episode and have always wondered if it was inspired by 1984
I used to use my facial hair growth to idly track how long I had been in the bush.
I feel personally attacked…
If I might suggest,
The Quarterly Calendar, 4 quarters of 13 seven day weeks, date expressed as Year . Quarter . Week . Day (Hour . Minute . Second . Etc in extended format)
The advantage? Hyper regularity, every date falls on the exact same day of the week every year. Makes it a lot easier to just intuit what day it is.
Note that day 365 is New Year’s day, which is outside the quarter, and Leap day is another intercalary set as the year end date. So this year NYD and NYE would both show up as non quarter days appended outside at the beginning and end of the year respectively.
Every time someone suggests a new calendar structure, a software developer has a heart attack
In my defense, this one would eliminate the need to adjust dates year to year.
It kinda does though… just don’t ever get sick or else you won’t know what day it is when you come back!?:-P
