Other comics you may enjoy

Insanity

This nerdy comic uses a fictitious *Nix terminal command as a play on the popular description of insanity as doing the same thing expeting a different outcome.
Who Are You?

A nerdy way of asking about yourself using the *nix command “who”
Three Little Pigs 2022

This nursery rhyme about the wolf huffing and puffing to blow down the homes of the three little pigs is supposed to be a lesson about being smart about using appropriate materials to avoid problems. This comic changes that to be a lesson to make sure you know where you are.
God Command Line

A silly comic replacing the commonly used *nix command “ls” with “god” that is perfect for developers/programmers/IT nerds.
Desktops

Web developers/programmers and designers need to work closely together if those duties are handled by different people. As a lead web developer I had ample opportunities of seeing the desktops of my fellow developers and the talented designers and how different their minds worked. This comic showcases the disparity in the laptop desktops. I created it with two little JavaScript-powered web pages, one for each desktop, to add emojis as the icons. I took the photos used as the backgrounds.
Old School Web Browsing

This comic shows the *Nix network commands that simulate what a web browser does when you visit a site.
WTF

Everyone knows what WTF stands for. In this nerdy comic for *Nix command line users it standards for Whereis Tsort Find. It shows the help information for each of the commands.
Cynical

Not everyone is a "people person." This comic says, "I am not cynical. I just don't believe anything you or anybody else says."
Ashes to Ashes

This is a nerdy take on the saying describing humans returning to their origins, “Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.” This instead uses the *Nix special device /dev/null.
Hello World

“Hello World” is one of the most common programs, typically being the introductory program to a new language. This comic uses CSS and a little JavaScript to make one of the ugliest “Hello World” examples.
