Latest strip: 256 – Wednesday, April 1, 2026
Current story arc: Idiocraception – chapter: That's Entertainment
Adil: What is going on? Why do we look so weird?
Zhang: We are totally pixelated.
Heidi: It looks like we're in the 256th strip. That is the full 8 bits worth of strips since the comic began.
Max: Why then are we only drawn with 1 bit color depth?
Steve: Because the comic is now running on a daily bit limit, like token limits in certain A.I. platforms. The daily limit for graphics is now set at 44280 bits, or 5535 bytes.
Max: I don't believe one bit of that explanation.
