I saw a giant shadow duck driving southbound I5 about 3 hours south of San Francisco. (30~ hours awake)

Shame about the brain damage i guess.

Right. Yeah I didn't engage my brain on the & initially as i thought it was just a typo. But that should work, seems others on the internet think the same.

I like 'exec startx', but really if someone has physical access, unless you are doing a lot of other security, you can't be safe.

If you switch to the VT with Ctrl-Alt-F1, and hit ctrl-z the process is suspended, but does not complete so it never gets to the exit.

At least that is my suspicion. I'm going to try it when I'm in front of a machine.

Joke's on you. Ctrl-Alt-F1 Ctrl-z.

Vic 20 was my first. I watched my dad struggle with and eventually give up on assembly. Something-something and the microbots. I was fearful of it until I took Assembly at Uni. That 2nd/3rd year class was where the final puzzle piece of how computers work fell in place for me.

My first job was writing assembly tests for a DSP hardware design team. Fell in love. Never looked back.

I was fully expecting to go back further and write a heist movie fit for netflix.

What could possibly go wrong?

Could probably replace managers with AI, but being trained on most managers would mean it would be equally bad at its job.

I think the most likely is for the artists jobs to go away as art doesn't have to be exact, but code does.

I assume they all share the same Tandy 1000 to IRC with hot-singles in their area.

Grizzled police-chief: get me those IP addresses

Nerd: setting up the back-trace now, wait, the ip is 127.0.0.1

Grizzled police-chief: don't give me that geek-talk poindexter, speak english

[Zoom in]

Nerd: the post was coming from inside the station.

[No one is shocked]
