Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
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'm running Linux but I thought CTRL, Shift and ESC is the shortcut for Task Manager
it is! but you can also launch it from the ctrl alt delete menu
You just thought?? I was damn sure
True, but CTRL+ALT+DEL sends a system interrupt in addition. Breaks a lot of deadlocks, hence why people think it's magic.
Curious: is that some ancient convention that just stuck around, prescribed in some old standard, or a Wibdows-specific thing?
It's ancient iirc
I'm pretty sure CTRL+ALT+DEL used to be the task manager shortcut, but around 7 or 8 a menu was added with logout and shutdown options. I don't know how long CTRL+SHIFT+ESC has been a thing, but it's an effective replacement (and easier to press with one hand :] ).
