I am curious how you decide to make the leap from pianos to automobiles, though…
Well done, you are a better internet sleuth than me!
If they are using GPL code, shouldn’t they also release their source code?
Now you know why.
I demand perfect real world accuracy in my comics and nothing less! He should have listed the pros and cons of being a frog including statistics about time running from predators, a full list of predators, life span, climate issues, etc. With citations of course.
Look on the table
I was able to track it down to there but the content looked too varied for him to be the author of the comic. But I will take it on your word to put it in the header. Thanks.
Trying to find a new man?
" I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there’s trouble, a man alone. Now they got the whole country sectioned off, you can’t make a move without a form."
Seems to project weakness more than strength when the world’s second nuclear power isn’t even sure if it’s ICBMs work.

This article summarizes the subsidies I’m talking about. Here’s an excerpt:
For now, the important point is that trucks generally are more profitable than cars thanks to two big government incentives, both of them historical footnotes.
The first is the so-called chicken tax, a 25 percent tariff imposed by Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964 on foreign-built work vehicles as part of a chicken-related trade war with Europe. If you’re making a pickup or cargo van in the United States, profits should be higher, because foreign factories can’t come close to undercutting you on price.
The second incentive lies in the fine print of Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards adopted in 1975, Gerald Ford’s reluctant response to a crippling Middle East oil embargo that sent gas prices soaring. To protect American commerce, work trucks and light trucks were subject to less-strict CAFE standards than family sedans. Trucks are also exempt from the 1978 gas guzzler tax, which adds $1,000 to $7,700 to the price of sedans that get 22.5 or fewer miles to the gallon.
That’s because the USA subsidizes bigger trucks as “work vehicles”. This practice needs to stop and they need to be taxed more than smaller vehicles.
Until his profile gets high enough that they find some permit he doesn’t have and he gets shut down.
I was working tech in the Bay Area in the '90s, I remember it well.
A smart businessman would make sure to tell them they need to leave anything pointy on the ground.
