A while ago I realized that GNOME Robots is not just another silly game. In fact it has some of the most advanced technology currently available:

The only implementation of safe teleportation I’m aware of! Please let me know if there are others.

We’re living in confusing and perilous times, and they (you know, they) will try to silence us all the time. Nobody expects the spanish isquisition, make no mistake. This is why we need more heroes like recon.

Featuring recon, gord, and topyli.

Update, Oct 8: recon, feeling he looks better in real life than in my vision, delivered this modified version of the cartoon:

First time the tales get a little touch of a human artist. Thanks, recon!

Technical mysteries make wastrel hungry. And a hungry wastrel is an angry wastrel. This installation of tales from the offtopic features Falstius, FurryNemesis, and wastrel.

We might as well admit it, Ubuntu has always been GNOME-centric. Our favorite KDE user aubade learned a lot from mc44 today.
