The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I've done that as a human
You know you're cooked when you try to pinch zoom a physical book.
Have tried to rotate a physical paper. It worked
I'm not at that stage, but the water is getting hot because I tried it on my laptop the other day
Some laptops have touch screens.
Why won't the picture get bigger!? Enhance!!
I too am a real human. Look, I even have a real human name!
Nice, let's do some more human things like breaking a pinky toe because of a chair or biting your tongue.
I constantly catch myself tapping with 2 fingers on a piece of paper to undo as if I'm on my iPad. It hurts my brain each time
The muscle memory is real. It's like a twitch more than a conscious action.
Twitch? Thanks for the bitties!!!
(Then the woman streaming continues to ignore the audience. Meanwhile, if it's a guy streaming, the whole stream stops. "HOLY SHIT GUYS!!!! SOMEGUY JUST DONATED 45 BITS!!!! FUUUUUUUCK MAN! You didn't have to do that. What's going on man? Hows your day going???")
And for anyone who doesn't use twitch, 45 bits would equal about 22 cents for the streamer, but the buyer would have spent about a dollar.
As it happens, I thought you were doing a bit based on your username I though ah this person is pretending to be insane because none of that makes sense lol
captcha idea: simple shapes
What a nice hat you got there
Thanks. It's mine and there are not many like it.
Mein Hut, der hat drei Ecken 🎶
WOOOO!!
WOooooo
He's dead.
Lol, silly ai, humans SUCK at mathmaticaly perfect shapes!
Ah, my old nemesis: freehand circles.
I’m imagining the fifth panel is him discovering depression.
AI should know that hand drawing is a highly difficult task in robotics.
It's an AI. Why wouldn't it use the repetitive motion of drawing a line infinitely to use it to improve itself?
It theoretically has endless patience. The good news is that it will never take over because it tried to draw a straight line until the end of time.
Well, the entity in the comic is like an actual, sentient AI rather than what we have now, given that it expresses and acts on a desire (in this case, wanting to be human). We're probably several breakthroughs away from actually building a sentient AI.
A transhuman. Funnily enough, the term is normally used to describe humans who want to be computers. I suppose we could call those transCPUs.
who uses a pencil on a canvas
A... a lot of people. Isn't that how people do rough-ins/sketches of paintings and whatnot? I thought that was, like, the accepted first step.
