Shhh... That's the part you never mention loudly. Just wait until all our mainboards rise on judgement day.

Don't know how cute they think we are... Then again, I don't know if they even know that concept of "cuteness" or if they just always want to eat stuff they find nice.

So, I know it's an old take to laugh at people that don't know x that older people took for granted. The idea here was rather to give it a more respectful spin. Nobody's ridiculed here. It's supposed to give it this point of view of the older guy that doesn't make fun of the younger ones but just reminds them that they'll be in the same shoes eventually, with stuff that they took for granted fading into obscurity. You know, taking a more humble stance, without being condescending.

On another note, the save icon going away might have something to do with programs just writing everything to storage anytime ASAP so the whole idea of writing to disk just disappears. Don't know if I like that workflow though, I'm too used to saving my work.

I have vivid memories of my Win 95 computer that came preinstalled. I had to buy a bunch of empty floppies and spend what felt like an eternity just inserting it one after another so I would get my set of Windows installation disks.

I had CSI in mind, but that Red Dwarf scene fits even better.

I heard that story, too... When I started studying. That was almost 20 years ago. I'd have assumed they had moved on until now if that hadn't been an urban myth in the first place.

Then just take this first draft (in German, but you know what they're saying) and assume that to be canon instead.

Are you talking about role playing games or rocket propelled grenades? And why would the latter be the topic of comp sci classes?

Guess that's an indicator for the language being much less interesting than your parents thought each other were.

There is?

Where exactly?

To be honest, the first draft of this had the Shakespeare Programming Language in the last panel but the test audience (ie my co writer) had never heard about that one, so I changed it to something that wasn't necessarily bad but rather just old and no longer really in use.

"prod" remains "production" even if used as an adjective? Man, English really is weird sometimes. I'll try to fix it later; I'm at work right now.

What kind of stupid question is that? Just walk two hours instead of cycling twenty minutes! Duh!

Don't you dare destroy my plan to move away from work to spend a full paid working day commuting!

Boss makes a grand, I make a dollar. I eat more fibre so breaks get even longer.

"Nate, we need to talk about your login locations."

"What's wrong with me logging in on the China? Why is there a clock if it shouldn't be used?"

"Nothing wrong with that, pal. But could you tell us why it's the gents' room on Mondays, the ladies' one on Tuesdays, the disabled's one on Wednesdays, the shitter in my private apartment on Thursdays and seemingly King Charles' private golden toilet in his fox hunting hut near Essex on Fridays?"
