Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
They used to do that.
Now they shove untested firmware updates onto windows update, launch them automatically, tell you that your computer is going to be updating for an indeterminate amount of time and that while that's evidently more urgent and important than whatever you were using it for they're generous enough to grant you three chances to postpone the update for 30 minutes, proceed with the update anyway when you tell them to postpone, warning you not to unplug the computer or else, and brick your machine even if you didn't unplug it (and no, warranty doesn't cover it, buy a new one, you filthy consumer).
We have several HP laptops at work, and they're an absolute nightmare.
Some Linux distros do this as well automatically. I accidentally updated my bios several times until my laptop stopped receiving updates.
