#192: Money for Nothing
Thursday, December 3, 2015
Even today, politicians and economists are discussing ways to get rid of cash for good. Some countries, like Sweden, are even starting to try it out. I have mixed feelings about this whole notion -- it might be more practical, but it's also better for the Big Brother Department.

Mr. Katana [holding up 4 rusty screws]: I'm absolutely sorry, bur these four somewhat rusty screws are all I've got.
Doctor Mysterious [skeptical]: Hm... I guess they will suffice. [Thinking] Hopefully.
Mr. Katana: You look a bit skeptical. Anyway, that will be six dollars, please.
Monty Fallout: Hey! Here ya go, Mister Karate, Sir.
Mr. Katana: Sir...
Mr. Katana: We don't accept cash any more. Honestly, the last time I've seen some was before my graduation, almost 30 years ago. You will need one of these chips, and you have to charge it to pay.
Blog and social media pages
Friday, February 5, 2016
Since our return in November 2015, we've massively expanded our presence in social media. Even though all of them have their links on every page, here's the complete list:
Facebook
Google+
Twitter
Tumblr

DeviantArt
Our own blog
If you like our little comic, feel free to like or follow us in the social media networks you're members of, and use their sharing mechanisms to spread the word. Our eternal gratitude will be yours if you do.
Using these channels, you can also communicate with us, ask questions, or even try and make suggestions. We won't promise to listen to the latter, but are always glad to hear your opinions about our work. Even the critical ones, as long as they're more constructive and more eloquently worded than "you suck."
We deliberately left out Instagram since they're too hipster to allow access from a computer and require a mobile device. We create and publish this comic using a MacBook Pro, and I'm not too fond of switching devices just for one social network (I know there are unofficial workarounds, but never mind these).
