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.

I'd also add that I've changed some of my PC-buying behavior in response.
I always avoided getting a higher-end processor, because they'd become obsolete so quickly, but it's less of an issue now (though the performance difference between the low and high end may not be very large for most applications).
I used to just get a new GPU when I got a new desktop, but GPU performance increases -- the GPU is a parallel-computing piece of hardware -- have dramatically outrun CPU performance increases. Upgrading the GPU separately from the rest of the computer has started to make more sense.
My i7 920 could run anything I threw at it up until a few years ago when the mobo started dying.
But yeah, my last major upgrade was from an R9 390 to a GTX 2060 (12GB).
I actually have the highest-end first generation Ryzen processor (the 1700X).
