wasn't a lack of networking what made it a temple, untouched by the influences of the corrupt internet or something like that? idk I'm not like a Terry Davis scholar by any means but I always figured he did that limitation with some kind of reason in mind
My favourite way back in the day (late 90s/early 00s or so) was telling people to go start->run->telnet www.boston.ru and it would be a little asciimation of a penis getting erect and then spurting with a pc speaker noise...
People would sometimes flip out like they had gotten a virus or whatever
Been following people who have been making electronic music mixes between two cassette decks and a mixer which are worth a listen. The thing that's interesting is that you can pitch up and down in ways that sound nice:
oh yeah you're right and this is coming from someone who still likes/uses perl once in a while for text manipulation stuff that awk/sed won't cut it for. try going into your terminal and typing in
man 3pm Errno
And you get this code snippet:
my $fh;
unless (open($fh, "<", "/fangorn/spouse")) {
if ($!{ENOENT}) {
warn "Get a wife!\n";
} else {
warn "This path is barred: $!";
}
}
man is that ever from a different time... but let me tell you if you can pull off some of those awk/sed or perl one liners you can do some pretty useful things with less resource allocation than you would be spending if you had written that in python, which becomes important if you're running it over and over on terabytes of data or on limited hardware
I know a guy who went to jail for that. He was in the news and everything. Banned from this country for life. Warned him that what he was doing was a stupid idea, he was even doing it for others who also got arrested...
I don't know what "that" was, and again, I had both the vaccination and the digital certificate to prove it; the system in place would not accept the real documents, so I fed it with other documents that it did accept.
The people who check your QR code with scanners on the entrance to a shopping mall (and refuse to let you in unless the scanner shows a green mark) are not the police nor the prosecution, and I have a good case to present to a judge in any case.
"The guy who went to jail" could be unvaccinated (or even infected) and presenting other people's certificates to enter an area for vaccinated people only (e.g. hospitals) where he might have endangered other people's lives; that's something that might be deserving jail time. I was vaccinated however, and by all means had the right to enter that shopping mall; I just wasn't able to prove it to the imperfect system that was there to check.
