  1. Amusing spam above … Things are about to get weird with Casa De Chuck!

    1. Ugh, I try to get to the SPAM quicker but we have a new kitty and I have been distracted. It is gone now. 😀

  2. New kitty tops spam any day … and I enjoy getting to see it in it’s brief lifespan.

536 – Great State Of Tech Sass

Welcome to Team Paranoid, Oscar! Spoiler alert: they really are out to getcha!

Next comic page planned for Nov. 20th. In the meantime, please accept this documentary evidence of new kitten Morgoth as he discovers the enigma that is the empty soda box.

Science (fiction) marches on…

Ever watched an old movie or television show featuring “future” technology and chuckled because, for example, they considered a phone that didn’t need to be plugged into a wall to be a big deal? Some things like Star Trek‘s replicators or transporters remain the realm of science fiction, but other speculative fiction often falls prey to the march of time. No one’s reanimating dead tissue a la Dr. Frankenstein yet (that I know of, anyhow), but Jules Verne’s flight of fancy about massive submersible vehicles of war didn’t take long to become a reality. Speaking of reanimating tissue, though… https://mashable.com/article/kfc-3d-printed-chicken-nuggets/ American fast food chain KFC has announced plans to debut 3D printed chicken nuggets made from a mix of plant matter and meat grown in a lab. In other words, basically meat cloned from chicken cells. That sort of tech is something we posited for the Zombie Ranch world seeing as livestock is mostly a memory of the past, and now here it is in the, err, flesh. Honestly, this sort of thing makes me wonder if the replicators aren’t too far-fetched, after all? No breakthrough on those transporters, though, so figure on still getting from place to place the hard way for the foreseeable future.
