    Of course there is a relevant Bugemos comic

    “…by the end I would use Tor for every single thing…”
    “…and change my email every day!”

    “You see, most people here have troubles with alcohol, rather than anonymity…”

    There’s like 600 of these and most are funny in English too. I should really translate them when I have the time…

        Yeah, it’s basically budget XKCD. The comic, started in 2003, has been steeply declining in production volume since 2013 and the last one was 2.5 years ago. I have scraped all 599 pages on the main website, plus there’s some on root.cz and Trustport, a now-defunct site available via archive.org (where the comics are in English already, such as this very funny one), I have yet to download. I have made a JSON index including tags, categories and body text, and I’ll probably translate a few of the images every week. I’m planning to make a GitHub Pages site plus a special Lemmy community and schedule a bot to post one daily. The earliest I can do this though is July.

        Some will have to be in German (if you can make comic #3’s Kern des Pudels kompilieren make sense in English, let me know), some will need an extra explanatory paragraph, and some cannot be translated at all. Lemmy users will be happy to see that 2006 Linux jokes haven’t aged at all but I wonder how they’ll put up with semi-rude Czech humor, traditional gender roles and lack of diversity.
