It’s a reference to the Khmer Rouge Genocide. This included people being killed for wearing glasses, speaking a foreign language, or anything else which indicated they were an intellectual.

Not sure why we’re throwing the Casio F-91W under the bus for this joke - the thing runs for years on one battery and only shifts off true time at like 1 second per year. They’re more accurate than alot of Casio’s more luxurious models even.

My microwave deserves the slander, though. Mechanical watches too, though they’re still nice to use. Speaking of which, I need to buy a sundial so I can keep my watch accurate after the US and its power grid collapses. Time keeping’s such a hassle sometmes.

This has been covered over and over. The bottom line is usually that devs view Linux as too varied a market for native support. There is always at least a claim that Linux bug reports far outpace windows and mac reports per-capita, and it does not sound unrealistic overall as a reality.

Proton also runs games well quite often. I would imagine that proton’s presence is in fact even more incentive to not support native Linux systems, since you aren’t really losing that userbase so long as the game still runs on proton.

Don’t be anti-intellectual about this silly comic. People can apply intellectual analysis to stupid things if they want to, and they damn-well may find deeper meaning sometimes.

Let people have their hobbies.
