(Online) Comics I’ve been reading Butternut Squash – Start at the beginning. Polished style. Crude humour. Hilarious. (Thanks for pointing this out, Jon!) Kukuburi – Start at the beginning.

Random UI Stuff and Link Dump
Radial menus in GNOME! libsexier, indeed! Awesome. I was wondering when radial menus would creep their way to the desktop.

FAZED – Videos Jesse linked me to this. Hilarious. I think I’d be willing to pay a small sum for someone to digitally enhance it and add a white wifebeater to the horny turtle. That would just be awesome. Posted as a test of flock. Pretty cool. Seems fast too. Almost motivation enough to get… Continue reading Wife-beating-turtle video
