Why is Viktor such as a**hole with V when she is on death door? Seems uncharacteristically rude..

Perhaps an app to turn a pig into a sandwich filler can find the errors? (7, 4)

I like that 013... It will ensure that there is room for months with over a hundred days...

Will you do it tomorrow as well if I am right, considering I am worse than useless at these?

Care to explain the solution?

I don't even know how to explain it all, something to do with errors and pigs, so my mind went to Hamming codes, which are error correcting codes.
Hamming code - Wikipedia
Quote: In computer science and telecommunication, Hamming codes are a family of linear error-correcting codes. Hamming codes can detect one-bit and two-bit errors, or correct one-bit errors without detection of uncorrected errors [...] Richard W. Hamming invented Hamming codes in 1950 as a way of automatically correcting errors introduced by punched card readers. In his original paper, Hamming elaborated his general idea, but specifically focused on the Hamming(7,4) code which adds three parity bits to four bits of data.
Cheers,
Vikram.

Turn a pig into sandwich filler: mage it into ham: HAMMING.
And app to do that? HAMMING CODE.
OK, I'll do it tomorrow!

Thank you
All I got was Pigs -> Ham and when I saw Find errors, my mind went to error correcting codes, so there was the second part of the answer, Code, and the most famous (for me) error correcting code is the Hamming code. I know I am doing a poor job of explaining, but it just clicked in my mind, I spent maybe 5 seconds on it
Cheers,
Vikram.

The definition makes it easy enough, but how do you get hamming from ham? I don't see what clues for -ming.

Well a "ham code" app doesn't make sense, so I verbified the noun! "Hamming" is a word (and a verb as in "hamming it up") so the gerund (I think - I was off to play with the fairies a lot during boring English classes) of "to ham a pig" would be "hamming a pig". Might be a present participle though.

I recognize a lot from Garfield from real life cats.
Most cats have these character traits in varying degrees: they're lazy, they treat you like furniture or a scratching post, they're entitled little assholes, they think they're better than humans, they're ungrateful...
There's one thing all cats have in common though, whenever there's food they act like they're starving and this food will save their life.

I'm not that much a cat person, but the cartoon reminded me very much my kids...

Yep. Furface will come indoors in about 15 minutes, complaining he hasn't been fed this year ...

So Garfield is a 20-something's now.

More 40-something (76 or 78 is the birth year)...

Dilbert Has Vacation Days[^]
That last panel ... many a true word spoken in jest!

And the next panel would be Dilbert asking, "Wouldn't introspection be cheaper?"

That reminds me of our dilemma to take an (expensive) campervan trip

Sounds like you have a story to tell.

True, very true indeed

I'm in the same situation.
