    Its pretty standard thing to say to someone who thinks projects their emotional state onto someone else. Nothing about my statement suggested I ‘woke up on the wrong side of the bed’ It does however suggest you can’t take a rebuff and act childish about it.









  • The thing about that movie for me is I started out very young with a home built blue box connecting to computers and BBS’s all over the world. I war dialed most prefixes in my region. I did all kinds of things that were to put it plainly, stupid. I learned by reading 2600 magazine, radio and electronics and tons of documents available on those BBS’s that changed numbers frequently. By 1995 I was all over the net and it was like the wild west. At the time that movie came out it was worse than a joke. Also by that time I had a job where compromising computer networks was less profitable than being able to maintain them.




  • Of course they do. They don’t want to pay for it. They just want it done at no extra cost to them. Just like copyright strikes against internet users.

    I worked for a ISP and we started demanding money to roll a truck to hand those shitty things to our customers. We would tell the customer that they have no idea who they are and if they don’t respond they never will. We stopped getting so many strikes. The absolute shittiest ones I spoke with were the ones with the Grateful Dead’s lead singers family trust.

    None of them ever paid for us to roll a truck. None of them ever served a subpoena.
