I would argue since it's in this loop, it can't really change its temperature. Otherwise the loop wouldn't close. And since also it adjusts to room temperature, it has be room temperature from the beginning all the time to avoid temporal paradoxes. According to the same logic, it doesn't crumble.

In panel 2, the dude has a pizza in his/her hand, and he/she has time to say "Now I have a free snack!" You don't think the temperature of the pizza would drop by even 0.1 degrees in that time?
If this object is permanently warmer than its surroundings, surely it can be used as a means to generate energy.
merc 3 points 2 years ago
There's no way to avoid a temporal paradox. Will the dude in panel 3 be able to smell the pizza? If so, there are microscopic particles from the pizza being emitted into the air. That means that by the time the pizza reaches panel 4, it won't be the same pizza that was brought into panel 2.
Liberteez 2 points a year ago
I would argue that there are infinite timelines of a room temperature "pizza slice" in various stages of decay, and eventually new reactions in the final two panels. If it reach room temperature, which it must, there is bacteria on that 'za.

Where the fuck do you live that you have crumbly pizza?
Catpurple 7 points 2 years ago
Since it's stuck in a loop, maybe its conditions are somehow being reset to fresh and hot as it's pulled over the panel edge. Or else, that thing is ice cold, rock hard, and completely inhospitable to microbial life, since from its perspective, it's probably been looping for a long, long time.
palordrolap 9 points 2 years ago
From the naive perspective it's looping infinitely and it ought to be infinitely old because there's no "first loop". Depending on the laws of physics, proton decay could make the pizza slice literally impossible.
Given that it clearly exists and has no rot let alone deep-time decay, I posit that it spontaneously appears/renews in panel three, away from the boundary break, as some kind of near-infinitely improbable entropy break.
He thinks he's discovered panel time travel, but it's far weirder than he thinks.
racketlauncher831 1 point 2 years ago
If the pizza was taken a bite in panel 3, then it's also bitten in panel 4, then it's also bitten already in panel 2 because it's taken from panel 4, then it can't be bitten in panel 3. It contradicts with itself. The pizza cannot be bitten.
And now we know that the pizza can't be altered in any way. It can be large, hot, freezing, or small.
One, and only one scenario of these defies physics the least, and you know which one it is.

It's like how Kirk's glasses are just going to get older and more worn-out with every loop.

There is a smart and funny french comic on this concept: "Imbattable" by Pascal Jousselin
The author plays with all the rules/codes of the European comics, one character can go through pages, another uses their speech "bubbles" as weapons, one uses the perspective of the objets, and the hero "Imbattable" can go through the page's frame.
Highly recommended !

Someone gif the comic into a horror panel
theblips 9 points 2 years ago
This is a pretty cool thought experiment. From our perspective, there is nothing about this that wouldn't allow the comic to just keep going. Despite it being a "paradox" from the perspective of the characters, from ours it just is, and doesn't look particularly nonsensical, just quirky. I wonder if that's how an eternal/4th dimension being would see our history
TheOakTree 7 points 2 years ago
The first thing I thought was "that's neat," and the second thing that came to mind was "that pizza never existed until it was taken from the future."
I mean, yeah, the comic could continue, and the characters could ignore it, but... does this imply that the characters can will anything into existence so long as it eventually disappears? Could they "borrow" a car from 10 years in the future so long as it's taken by their past selves in 10 years?
theblips 1 point 2 years ago
Only from the perspective of the characters, though. To us it clearly existed in panels 3 and 4, prime for taking by any higher dimensional beings, that's what I mean. It doesn't mean the characters can will anything into existence, it means that time is just another dimension to travel through, and there are entities (that one slice of pizza for example) that travel backwards and forwards.
Another way of seeing this is that it would look equally alien to our 2 dimensional shadows when we pick something from our pockets, or turn something inside out, but it still makes sense to us 3d beings

Us: it's a paradox! Time is broken!!!!
Them: that's just bistability, big whoop.

Our history on earth: "We're sick of this asshole ruling over the people! Lets start a war to remove/kill him!!!"
war happens
"Ok, glad he's gone. Now introducing the newest asshole to rule over the people!!!"
some time passes
repeat
"Why do these earthlings KEEP DOING THIS SHIT???"

If you hurry up and eat it before it gets taken back, that's some lovely calorie-free pizza! Imagine starting a pizza chain like that

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
Rules
*� Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
*�️ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
*� Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
*�️ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
*� Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.

✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
*� Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
