    It’s getting better at fingers, but goodgawdamn, that’s a long left thumb. 🙃

      I don’t know about the rest, but the fingers don’t really look wrong at all. Just tried it myself and thumb looks the same.

        If that watch is based on the Casio Vintage LA680WE (33.5 x 28.6 x 8.6 mm), that left thumb’s first knuckle is >2x longer than its length, making it >2.6 in long and therefore ~2.6x longer than normal on a cishet, white male in his 20s-30s like the one simulated above… 🤢😅

          Why do you assume that the knuckle begins there? It’s way more likely to just be the skin between the thumb and the index finger. Again, try it out in a mirror and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

            I do apologize, but the anatomical math doesn’t check out.

              If that had been the knuckle, sure. But there is nothing that says there is, it’s just an assumption on your part. Yet again, try it yourself with a mirror.

    I remember an article back in the 90s where the author said somebody dropped a source code printout of a C compiler on his desk and it was like 4 inches thick, and he compared that to late 80’s Turbo Pascal, a compiler and full IDE that took up 32k.

      Did the source code printout have an annoying space accent, or… ?

    I’ve been playing the video game Astronaut The Best, and the astronauts can have various accents. Including ones the game calls ‘stupid’. Your can also set the whole thing in the equivalent of old English for a challenge!
