Yes. Sorry about that. I re-read the comic text and realised that it could indeed be read as "OMG I GIVE UP FOREVER". But that's not the case, but I thought it would be polite to let people know that the odds of a comic appearing that evening were becoming... shall we say... slim.
The rebuild of the tablet I hope will finally solve these problems for good. Because I am loathe to throw out electronic equipment that still works, but exhibits slight connection problems.
