Gaston Lagaffe! Woof, what a shot of nostalgia. Don’t think I’ve seen one of those strips since high school

Cartoon GI Joe or live action GI Joe? I’m inclined to cut cartoons in general a lot of slack in terms of physics abuse

Everyone’s ragging on the Christmas retail ambience songs, but at least you can mitigate the risks of hearing those ones by staying the fuck out of shopping malls. My top three:

Colegiala? Yeah, ew.

Genuinely curious what he had in mind. A GNOME desktop? A terminal shell?

Will no one spare a thought for that poor, poor inkjet?

Shush you, Venice is magnificent. Wouldn’t want to live there but it’s an extraordinary place absolutely worth experiencing. Ancient, labyrinthine, palaces and churches everywhere, it’s like stepping into the Renaissance.

Didn’t know about this. How long are we talking, minutes, hours?

Alpha Centauri baby! Still one of my favourite games, I wonder if it still works

Yeah, that’s fair. Still curved though. In my defense I had it right in my brain, the idea got garbled on its way to the keyboard

Aaaaactchhhually a frozen lake would follow the local curvature of the earth, even assuming ideal conditions and crystal formation and so on
