Also, ...I agree, I like cracked, but I hate xkcd.<br /><br />Also, internet explorer? Really?<br /><br />IE users like to use the "what do you care what browser I use, you obnoxious dipshit?" argument, but it fails because I'm a webdesigner and I have to deal with this shitpiece of a browser. There are two kinds of people, the ones that use IE because they don't know better, and people who use it consciously. And I hate the second kind more because it feels like they are consciously causing me work.<br /><br />But enough about browsers, the review itself, meh. It was ok, I guess.

Good job, Randy, you're griping about something that almost every other Linux user is griping about on just about every distribution's forums/lists. I absolutely cannot wait for the review of 619... Let the anger fly.<br /><br />-- Long-time Linux user.<br /><br />P.S. for those who actually give a shit enough to investigate solutions for the Intel graphics issue instead of whining: If you use Arch Linux, which usually has the latest builds of everything, or Gentoo, which lets you build whatever the hell you want, you'll notice that the Intel graphics chipset support is becoming pretty nice. Unfortunately, the intel devs removed XAA acceleration, which was producing extremely smooth video, 3D graphics, etc. on my machine, to make way for the new UXA architecture. But if you go back a few revisions, you can easily get excellent 3D and video performance. If you're reading this, Randall, I sincerely hope you give it a try and do some research because no matter what Ubuntu says, Linux will always be for those who like to investigate their own problems.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-21633789079831397482009-08-04T21:03:49.889-07:002009-08-04T21:03:49.889-07:00Meh.

The Penny Arcade strip? It was just a commentary -- not a criticism! -- on how it's made specifically for people who have sufficient knowledge on video games (target audience!!), no matter how obscure it may be. Obscurity, ya see? HOW OBSCURE IS THE LITTLE PRINCE, man? But, really, what's with that paragraph before the closing line? Either that was (badly executed) irony, or you really have no clue. ANY "meteor" disaster film would have worked, but he only namedropped "Deep Impact" to make the (pretty worthless) title text work (the similarities between the first three panels and Deep Impact are almost none at all).<br />The commentary about the reference, once again, makes no sense. The reference is not just "a passing commentary" in the comic: it is THE PUNCHLINE. Not only that, but it's not the reference that is awkwardly squeezed into the comic, but the joke itself is constructed around it. I can say the same thing about the "Analysing Love" comic, yet I found that one awful.<br />I can understand why one wouldn't like the strip at all, but I believe the problem was not in the execution, but in the idea itself. It was executed quite decently... okay, the dialogue in the third panel is atrocious, and not even the "I had to fit a lot in a very small space" justification does much good. "Hooray!" "We are heroes!" is a pretty silly way to celebrate the saving of the whole planet.<br /><br />Rushed art? Okay, that's a plausible explanation. But it doesn't help either.Fernie Cantohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01753446688169468457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-59104115601175196862009-08-04T19:00:51.153-07:002009-08-04T19:00:51.153-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Fernie Cantohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01753446688169468457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-1875071468426350772009-08-04T18:27:14.046-07:002009-08-04T18:27:14.046-07:00Ok, didn't get the reference, my bad.
