My gawds, some people need to learn what's a homage and also stop being upset on behalf of others. This comic is fine, stop bellyaching. This is what terminal permission culture does to a motherfucker.

The only person who should care about anything other than the quality is Randall. However since he licensed it CC BY-NC 2.5 how he feels about it doesn't really matter either.

I think people should be concerned about things on others' behalfs. We all need to stick together.

This situation is a send-up though. Totally not a concern.

Oh definitely! I just meant in this particular case.

We can probably infer by the licensing that he's cool with it.

What is terminal permission if I may ask?

Permission culture is a term primarily criticizing copyright law. Something that I would expect db0 to agree with! ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ

Hrm, give me a moment to check the ACLs, I'll be able to resolve all these complex conflicting rules shortly...

Nevermind, it was easier to just globally disable SeLinux so I did that. Your system should be more secure now.

Call Dr. Kevorkian and ask.
