COMIC: “Horn Games”. I realize the real-life examples of poaching rhinos for their horns is terrible and sad, but I kinda like the idea that they'd have to get consent and maybe even pay them a little to get your horn powder wiener treatment. More at newduck.com #comics #webcomics #humor

Tim Sweeney was like this toward id in the Quake/Unreal days. His more recent apple and Google spat at least had some arguments to be made. This beef with Steam is just pathetic and lame.

No, Facebook’s web servers aren’t directly connected to the internet. They go through proxies and web app firewalls that are used to load balance traffic and filter out things like these vulnerabilities. Large web hosts like Dreamhost also posted they were protected using WAFs. Good Q, tho.

Since Facebook was originally written in PHP, and still has a load of PHP codebase in it, is it at risk with these exploits coming out left and right in the last few days?

COMIC: “Misrepresentation”. This is of course, absurd, but honestly, no one likes the current dating app scene right? I can’t imagine needing to be in that world right now. Good luck everyone! More comics at newduck.com #comics #webcomics #humor

Working for PopCap when EA acquired us was an insane time in my career. So much squandered potential because that profit bar was never tall enough for them.

Lord knows the competition is heating up lately, but has there been a worse steward of IP, opportunity, and potential than Electronic Arts?

I see we're now fully in the inevitable stage of "they're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs" stage off bullshit again ahead of these midterms.

COMIC: “Cloaca”. Man, birds are weird enough. But that cloaca? The hell. Then again, I suppose there's a one-size-fits-all mentality going on there. I respect it, but I don't have to like it. More at newduck.com #comics #webcomics #humor
