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.

Hacker News is the least 'hacker' any webpage has ever been...
Ah, sorta like how Newsmax has a minimum of actual news?
Well, I'd actually even go so far as that it's actively non-hacker. The original meaning of 'hacker' is someone who's good at problem solving, but often especially used in the context of free/open-source software, so always with an air of anti-capitalism.
Well, Hacker News is hosted by a Venture Capital firm. They also inject their own "news" onto the Hot page.
Well, and that's also then reflected in the kind of users that hang out there. As it turns out, they should have called it "Techbro News"...
"I get all my crypto pump and dump news from TechBro News MINUTES after my virtual wallet becomes worthless again!"
